Answer:

p_{f} = 6 m / s

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using conservation of momentum. For this we define a system formed by the two balls, so that the forces during the collision have been intense and the moment is preserved

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v +0

Final moment. Right after the crash

        p_{f} = (m + m) v_{f}

how the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_{f}

       m v = 2 m v_{f}

       v_{f} = v / 2

we calculate

       v_{f} = 12/2

       p_{f} = 6 m / s

Use the graph below to answer the following question: What is happening to the object's velocity?
hjlf

The object's velocity is decreasing.

Explanation:

From graph is the attached image, we can clearly point that the velocity of this motion is decreasing with time.

Velocity is a vector quantity.

  • The y-axis represent displacement.
  • The x-axis depicts time
  • Using the graph, we know that the slope of the line on the graph gives us the velocity as it denotes the change of displacement with time.
  • When we find the slope, it will give us a negative value which shows that the body is slowing down and not increasing speed.

You are tossing a ball directly up into the air. Before the ball leaves your hand, you are exerting a force directed against the
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

F n = 0.2 N

Explanation:

given,                                      

you are exerting force of 10 N on the ball.

mass of the ball = 1 kg              

acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8 m/s²

normal force on the ball = ?          

normal force is force exerted by the object to counteract the force from other object.                

normal force acting on the ball will be

F n = F - mg                          

F n = 10 - 1 × 9.8                        

F n = 10 -9.8                    

F n = 0.2 N            

Hence, normal force acting on the ball is equal to 0.2 N

Can someone explain the normal force? where does it come from? ...?
Vilka [71]
<span>The normal force is the support force exerted upon an object which is in contact with another stable object. For example, if a book is resting upon a surface, then the surface is exerting an upward force upon the book in order to support the weight of the book. The normal force in itseñf comes from the third law of Newton as a reactive force</span>
