Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Maximum range (Rₘₐₓ) = 1.6 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =?

The initial velocity of the projectile can be obtained as follow:

Rₘₐₓ = u² / g

1.6 = u² / 10

Cross multiply

u² = 1.6 × 10

u² = 16

Take the square root of both side

u = √16

u = 4 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the projectile is 4 m/s

How is velocity affected when balanced forces act on an object?

MrRissso [65]

When the forces acting on a body are balanced, their effect
\on the body's motion is the same as if no forces at all are
acting on it, and its velocity can't change. It continues moving
in a straight line at constant speed (which may be zero).

Mary has a mass of 40 kg and sprints at 1 m/s. How much kinetic energy does she have?

Sav [38]

Answer:

20 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given as half of the product of mass and the square of velocity of an object:

KE = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where m = mass = 40 kg

v = velocity = 1 m/s

Hence, Mary's kinetic energy is:

KE = $\frac{1}{2} * 40 * 1^2$

KE = 20 * 1 = 20 J

She has a kinetic energy of 20 J.

A force of 10 N acts on an object with a mass of 10 kg. What is its acceleration? A. 1 m/s2 B. 10 m/s2 C. 2 m/s2 D. 5 m/s2

Akimi4 [234]

The acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

According to Newton’s second law of motion, any external force acting on a body will be directly proportional to the mass of the body as well as acceleration exerted by the body. So, the net external force acting on any object will be equal to the product of mass of the object with acceleration exerted by the object. Thus,

$Force = Mass \times Acceleration$

So,

$Acceleration=\frac{\text {Force}}{\text {Mass}}$

As the force acting on the object is stated as 10 N and the mass of the object is given as 10 kg, then the acceleration will be

$Acceleration =\frac{10 \mathrm{N}}{10 \mathrm{kg}}=1 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

So, the acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$
