Explain why gravity is the only force acting on a falling ball

Physics
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Gravity is the only force acting on a falling ball because of free fall. Since gravity is unbalanced it accelerates an object and the velocity increases as an object falls due to gravity pushing it. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.

ln the constellation of Orion, you can see a group of stars and other objects that appear in the shape of a sword. Ln the middle
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Nebula

Explanation:

 Given that in the constellation of Orion, you can see a group of stars and other objects that appear in the shape of a sword. Ln the middle of the sword, a bright "fuzzy star" appears. Astronomers looking at this object through telescopes refer to it as a "stellar nursery." Another name for this object is called NEBULA.

The space where new stars are forming anew is known as nebulae

A 1kg dictionary is resting on a table that is 1.5m high. How much potential energy
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Potential energy = 14.7 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 1kg

Height, h = 1.5m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

P.E = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

P.E = 1*9.8*1.5

P.E = 14.7 Joules.

Vikki [24]
You didn't mention it, but the trumpeter herself has to be standing still.

<span>Person C, the one running towards the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is higher than B-flat.  (A)

Person B, the one running away from the trumpeter, hears a pitch
that is lower than B-flat.

Person D, the one standing still the whole time, hears the B-flat.</span>

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V
