Answer:

Force = -1161.6 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 44m/s

Distance ,s = 12.5cm to m = 12.5/100 = 0.125m

Mass = 0.15kg

To find the acceleration;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V ² = U² + 2as

0² = 44² + 2*a*0.125

0 = 1936 + 0.25a

0.25a = -1936

a = -1936/0.25

Acceleration, a = -7744m/s2

Force = mass * acceleration

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Force = 0.15 * (-7744)

Force = -1161.6 Newton

The value of its force is negative because the glove decreases the velocity of the ball.

If transpiration didn't take place, would water be able to enter the roots of the plant? Explain your reasoning
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

If transpiration didn't take place water would still be able to enter the roots of a plant

Explanation:

transpiration is the process of water leaving from living organisms to the atmosphere, therefore, if transpiration didn't occur the water would not transpire to the atmosphere and would remain in the root but water absorption would not change because it is a biological need for the living organism as such

A football player runs 20 meters North of a football field, and then 15 meters East. The total motion lasted 15 seconds. What wa
vlada-n [284]
Given:
1st run: 20 meters North
2nd run: 15 meters East
time: 15 seconds

Average speed = total distance covered / total time taken
Ave. Speed = (20m + 15m) / 15s
Ave. Speed = 35m / 15s
Ave. Speed = 2 1/3  meters per second

A free positive charge released in an electric field will:
choli [55]

Answer:

accelerate in the direction in which the electric field is pointing.

Explanation:

The positive charge feels a force in the same direction as the electric field

F=Eq  

F and E are vectors, q is a scalar

(if it were a negative charge the force would be in the opposite direction)

that force will produce an acceleration in the same direction, that acceleration will cause the particle to move in the same direction, ie the direction of the electric field.
