Answer: The greatest force of gravity on the ball will occur at the point when the ball is near to hit the ground ... hope this helps have a good day :P
To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.
The forces that make a passenger speed up, slow down, or
turn a curve are the same forces that have the same effect
on the driver and anybody else in the car.
-- Speeding up . . .
the back of the seat
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Slowing down . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Turning away from a straight line . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
the door, or whatever or whomever you're leaning against
Answer:
A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Final velocity (V) = 0
Time (t) =?
Initial velocity (U) =?
A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.
Let us obtain an express for time (t)
Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)
a = V/t
Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)
V = s/t
a = s/t^2
Cross multiply
a x t^2 = s
Divide both side by a
t^2 = s/a
Take the square root of both side
t = √(s/a)
Now we can obtain the time as follow
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Time (t) =..?
t = √(s/a)
t = √(256/26)
t = 3.14 secs
Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.
V = U + at
Final velocity (V) = 0
Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2
Time (t) = 3.14 sec
Initial velocity (U) =.?
0 = U – 26x3.14
0 = U – 81.64
Collect like terms
U = 81.64 ft/s
Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
