Two balls are thrown against a wall with the same velocity. The first ball is made of rubber and bounces straight back with some

non-zero speed. The second ball is made of clay and sticks to the wall after impact. If we assume the collision time was the same for each ball, which ball experienced a greater average acceleration during the collision with the wall? A. the average acceleration was the sameB. the clay ball C. there is not enough information D. the rubber ball

Answer:

A. the average acceleration was the same

Explanation:

Acceleration is calculated by finding the difference of the initial velocity from the final velocity (on impact, usually 0) and then dividing by the amount of time that took place. If we assume that both balls were thrown at the same initial force, and ended up hitting the wall at the same time then we can say that the average acceleration was the same. If the initial velocity was not the same then we would need the initial velocity of each ball in order to calculate the acceleration of each object and determine which had a greater acceleration.

How do liquids affect friction?
Sophie [7]

Although liquids offer resistance to objects moving through them, they also smooth surfaces and reduce friction. Liquids tend to get thinner (less viscous) as they are heated. ... The rubbing produces friction and the result is heat.

In a thundercloud there may be electric charges of 45.0 C near the top of the cloud and -45.0 C near the bottom of the cloud. Th
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The electric force on the top charge is F=3.44\times 10^6\ N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric charges in a thundercloud, q_1=q_2=45\ C

The distance between charges, d = 2.3 km = 2300 m

Let F is the electric force on the top charge. The electric force is given by the formula as :

F=\dfrac{kq^2}{d^2}

F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (45)^2}{(2300)^2}

F=3445179.58\ N

or

F=3.44\times 10^6\ N

So, the electric force on the top charge is F=3.44\times 10^6\ N. Hence, this is the required solution.
