How is newton's first law used in basketball?

Physics

arlik [135]3 years ago

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.

Choice A is correct.======Kinetic energy equation:   KE = (1/2)(m)(v²)This tells us that KE is directly proportional to mass and the square of velocity. In other words, the more mass and more velocity an object has, the more kinetic energy.If an object is sitting at the top of a ramp, there is no velocity and therefore no kinetic energy.    Choices B and D are wrong.A golf ball has more mass than a ping-pong ball, so a ping-pong ball would have less kinetic energy than a golf ball rolling off the end of a ramp.    Choice C is wrong.Choice A is correct.

Runner A is initially 5.7 km west of a flagpole and is running with a constant velocity of 8.9 km/h due east. Runner B is initia
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole

Explanation:

given data

distance A = 5.7 km  west

velocity V1 = 8.9 km/h

distance B = 4.5 km  east

velocity V2 = 7 km/h

to find out

How far runners from the flagpole, when paths cross

solution

we know A and B are 5.7 + 4.5 = 10.2 km apart

and we consider here B will run distance x km for meet

so time will be for B is

time B = distance / velocity

time B = x / 7     ...................1

and

for A distance for meet = ( 10.2 - x ) km

so time A = distance / velocity

time A = ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9      .............2

now equating equation 1 and 2

time A = time B

x / 7  =   ( 10.2 - x )  / 8.9

x = 4.490

so distance of B run for meet is 4.490 km

so distance from the flagpole when their paths cross is 4.5 - 4.490 = 0.01 km

so B meet A 0.01 km east of flagpole

While a roofer is working on a roof that slants at 39.0 degrees above the horizontal, he accidentally nudges his 88.0 N toolbox,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

V= 6.974 m/s

Explanation:

Component( box) weight acting parallel and down roof 88(sin39.0°)=55.4 N

Force of kinetic friction acting parallel and up roof = 18.0 N

Fnet force acting on tool box acting parallel and down roof

Fnet= 55.4 - 18.0

Fnet=37.4 N

acceleration of tool box down roof

a = 37.4(9.81)/88.0

a= 4.169 m/s²

d = 4.90 m

t = √2d/a

t= √2(4.90)/4.169

t= 1.662 s

V = at

V= 4.169(1.662)

V= 6.974 m/s
