Answer:

......................

Explanation:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.

What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 45m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -7 \ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

$a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}$

The object accelerates <em>from</em> 45 meters per second <em>to </em>10 meters per second in 5 seconds. Therefore,

$v_f=10 \ m/s \\v_i= 45 \ m/s \\t= 5 \ s$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$a= \frac{ 10 \ m/s - 45 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Solve the numerator.

$a= \frac { -35 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Divide.

$a= -7 \ m/s/s$

$a= -7 \ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the object is -7 meters per square second. The acceleration is negative because the object's velocity decreases and the object slows down.

A model train engine was moving at a constant speed on a straight horizontal track. As the engine moved along, a marble was fir

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The marble was moving in a projectile and the speed of the engine was 2.716 m/s

Explanation:

The vertical component of the marble's flight path relative to the train

is given by the equation y(t) = v*t - (4.9)*t^2,

where, v is the initial upward velocity of the marble relative to the train.

So with y(1) = v - 4.9 = 0 we have

v = 4.9 m/s.

The marble will reach maximum height after 0.5 seconds, at which the

height will be y(0.5) = (4.9)*(0.5) - (4.9)*(0.5)^2 = (4.9)*(0.25) = 1.225 m.

Now, the marble has a vertical velocity component of 4.9 m/s and a horizontal velocity component

of V m/s such that tan(61) = 4.9 / V

V = 4.9 / tan(61) = 2.716 m/s

This horizontal velocity component of the marble is the same as the

speed of the train i.e. 2.716 m/s.

Difference between freefall and weightlessness.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Differences between freefall and weightlessness are as follows:

<h3><u>Freefall</u></h3>

When a body falls only under the influence of gravity, it is called free fall.
Freefall is not possible in absence of gravity.
A body falling in a vacuum is an example of free fall.

<h3><u>Weightlessness</u></h3>

Weightlessness is a condition at which the apparent weight of body becomes zero.
Weightlessness is possible in absence of gravity.
A man in a free falling lift is an example of weightlessness.

Hope this helps....

Good luck on your assignment....
