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

Maru [420]

Myopia

Explanation:

myopia is a common vision condition in which you can see objects near to you clearly, but objects farther away are blurry. It occurs when the shape of your eye causes light rays to refract incorrectly, focusing images in front of your retina instead of on your retina. It can be corrected corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.

The magnitude of the weight of a 3.0 kg object on the surface of the earth is 29 N. True False
madreJ [45]
True

In fact, the weight of an object on the surface of the Earth is given by:
F=mg
where m is the mass of the object and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration on Earth's surface. If we use the mass of the object, m=3.0 kg, we find
F=mg=(3.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=29 N
