If the net force on an object is to the left, what will the direction of the resulting acceleration

Physics

3 0

Acceleration points in the same direction as the net force, so to the left.

The direction of velocity can't be determined from this information alone, though. If the object is at rest, it will being moving to the left. If the object is already moving to the left, it will continue doing so and speed up. If it starts off moving to the right, it will continue to move to the right but eventually slow to a stop before starting to move to the left. There are more cases to consider if you're talking about motion in more than one dimension.

1) 15 / 12 = 1.25 ratio
2) to increase acceleration  1.25 times (with same F, or same engine) you have to lower mass 1.25 times
3) 1515/1.25 = 1212 kg

A tennis ball is dropped from a roof. If it takes 38.9 seconds to reach the ground, how fast is the ball moving just before it h
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

time taken to reach the ground, t = 38.9 s

The height of fall is given by;

h = ¹/₂gt²

h = ¹/₂(9.8)(38.9)²

h = 7414.73 m

The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is given as;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

u is the initial velocity of the on the root = 0

v is the final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 7414.73 )

v = 381.2 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s

The head of a rattlesnake can accelerate at 49 m/s2 in striking a victim. If a car could do as well, how long would it take to r
Anettt [7]
<h2>Time taken is 0.459 seconds</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

     Final velocity, v = 81 km/hr = 22.5 m/s    

     Time, t = ?

     Acceleration, a = 49 m/s²

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      22.5 = 0 + 49 x t

                      t = 0.459 seconds

   Time taken is 0.459 seconds
