Answer:

When the sum of all forces applied to the object is 0.

Explanation:

N2L states that net force equals an object's mass times its acceleration (F = ma). If the net force is 0, the acceleration of the object is 0.

On the second note, when an object has 0 acceleration (which means it has a constant velocity), it is in equilibrium (N1L).

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS :) What does it mean when white light is diffracted and at a particular location the color seen is bl

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

This is because white light consists of 7 colours with different angles o deviation or retraction.

Explanation:

When a narrow beam of light is refracted by a prism the light spreads into a band of colours (called the spectrum of light )

But in this case if a blue colour is observed it is due to the angle of refraction ,for instance red is refracted the least and hence is seen

Can a goalkeeper at his goal kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground? The distance will

zmey [24]

The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

Acceleration = -g

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = u sin θ - g t

$t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

This is the time of flight.

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,

Initial velocity, u = u cos θ

Acceleration, a =0 m/s²

Time, $t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

$s=ucos\theta \times \frac{usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{2g}$

This is the range.

In this problem

u = 30 m/s

g = 9.81 m/s²

θ = 45° - For maximum range

Substituting

$s=\frac{30^2\times sin(2\times 45)}{2\times 9.81}=45.87m$

Maximum horizontal distance traveled by ball without touching ground is 45.87 m, which is less than 95 m.

So the goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground
