The motion of the ball is a composition of two motions:
- on the x (horizontal) axis, it is a uniform motion with initial velocity v_x = 1.0 m/s
- on the y (vertical) axis, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with acceleration g= 9.81 m/s^2 

(a) to solve this part, we just analyze the motion on the vertical axis. The law of motion here is
y(t) = h - \frac{1}{2} gt^2
By requiring y(t)=0, we find the time t at which the ball reaches the floor:
h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0
t= \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2\cdot 2.0 m}{9.81 m/s^2} }=0.64 s

(b) for this part, we can analyze only the motion on the horizontal axis. To find how far the ball will land, we must calculate the distance covered on the x-axis, x(t), when the ball reaches the ground (so, after a time t=0.64 s):
x(t) = v_x t = (1.0 m/s)(0.64 s)=0.64 m

A 300-kg bear grasping a vertical tree slides down at constant velocity. the friction force between the tree and the bear is:___
Nady [450]

3000 N of friction exists between the bear and the tree.

The bear goes down at a constant speed, thus there is no acceleration. The forces add up to zero. As a result, upward friction and downward weight result in zero  

i.e.,

F-mg=0

F = mg

F = (300 kg)/10 m/s^{2} (gravitational acceleration)

3000 N frictional force equals F.

How does friction force work?

  • Friction is the force that prevents two solid objects from rolling or sliding over one another. Even though frictional forces, such as the traction required to walk without slipping, may be advantageous, they can also be a significant hindrance to motion.

Between solid surfaces, there are three basic types of friction:

  • Rolling
  • Sliding.
  • Static.                                                                                                                   They are graded from strongest to weakest. Fluid friction happens when liquids or gasses are mixed together.

What happens to energy and frequency of a wave if its wavelength increases?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Waves can be measured using wavelength and frequency. ... The distance from one crest to the next is called a wavelength (λ). The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease.
