Answer:

Explanation:
Given:
- mass of John,

- mass of William,

- length of slide,

(A)
height between John and William, 
<u>Using the equation of motion:</u>

where:
v_J = final velocity of John at the end of the slide
u_J = initial velocity of John at the top of the slide = 0
Now putting respective :


<u>Now using the law of conservation of momentum at the bottom of the slide:</u>
<em>Sum of initial momentum of kids before & after collision must be equal.</em>

where: v = velocity with which they move together after collision

is the velocity with which they leave the slide.
(B)
- frictional force due to mud,

<u>Now we find the force along the slide due to the body weight:</u>



<em><u>Hence the net force along the slide:</u></em>

<em>Now the acceleration of John:</em>



<u>Now the new velocity:</u>



Hence the new velocity is slower by

To change my friends mind, after they've already said weather predictions are just guesses, I would say they are correct, but not only to they use guesses to predict what will happen, but they also, before hand, use atmospheric tools. They then predict from the data collected. They do both.
Answer:
40 j, 80j.
Explanation:
P.E= mgh. G=10 m/s².
For 4m, P.E=1*10*4=40 joules.
For 8m, P.E=1*10*8=80 joules.
Answer:
Magnitude of net force will be 432.758 N
Explanation:
We have given x component of acceleration 
And vertical component of acceleration 
Mass of the ball m = 0.40 kg
So net acceleration 
Now according to second law of motion
Force = mass × acceleration
So F = 0.40×1081.896 = 432.758 N
