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.

The measurement of how much matter an object contains is its
Ket [755]

Answer:

Mass is how much matter an object contains. Mass and weight are different measurements, although they may seem similar. Mass is measured by comparing one object to another object of known mass. Grams and kilograms are units we use to measure mass.

A man-made satellite orbits the earth in a circular orbit that has a radius of 32000 km. The mass of the Earth is 5.97e 24 kg. W
Gwar [14]

Answer:

= 3521m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

Explanation:

F = m * v² ÷ r

Fg = (G * M * m) ÷ r²

(m v²) / r = (G * M * m) / r²

v² = (G * M) / r

v = √( G * M ÷ r)

G * M = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 5.97 * 10²⁴ = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴

r = 32000km = 32 * 10⁶ meters  

G * M / r = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴ ÷ 32 * 10⁶

v = √1.24 * 10⁷  

v = 3521.36m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
frutty [35]

Answer:

Velocity=1.1m/s

Amplitude=0.35m

Explanation:

Given:

time 't' = 2.9s

wavelength 'λ'= 5.5m

distance 'd'=0.7m

The time period 't' is the time b/w two successive waves. Therefore, the time it takes from the boat to travel  from its highest point to its lowest is a half period.

So, T = 2 x 2.9 => 5.8 s

As we know that frequency is the reciprocal of time period, we have

f= 1/T = 1/5.8 =>0.2 Hz

In order to find how fast are the waves traveling, the velocity is given by

Velocity = f λ

V= 0.2 x 5.5 =>1.1m/s

The distance between the boat's highest point to its lowest point is double the amplitude.

Therefore , we can write

Amplitude 'A'= d/2 =>0.7/2 =>0.35m
