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.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is the cosine of 30 degrees multiplied by 40m/s. The cosine of 30 degrees is the 0.8660 . To get the speed, multiply by 40m/s. This equals 34.64, which is approximately 35m/s.

Hope it helpss :)

The sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.

<h3>What is the solar system?</h3>

The term solar system has to do with the arrangement of the sun and the planets. The sun lies at the focus of the solar system. Now we know that there are nine planets that orbit around the sun. The distance between the planets and the sun depends on their relative proximity to each other.

Thus, the sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.

Which kind of energy transformation occurs during skydiving? A) mechanical to gravitational B) gravitational to kinetic C) kinet
Aleks [24]

B) gravitational to kinetic

Explanation:

The skydiver, when he is located at a certain height h above the ground, possesses gravitational potential energy, equal to:

U=mgh

where m is the mass of the skydiver, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the ground. As he falls, its height h decreases, while his speed v increases, so part of the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

so, we see that as v increases, the kinetic energy increases. Therefore the correct answer is

B) gravitational to kinetic
