constant non zero acceleration
Answer:
when it interacts with other electrons without changing its speed
Explanation:
without changing its speed
Answer:
0.014s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
mass of golf ball = 0.059kg
force applied = 290N
velocity = 69m/s
initial velocity = 0m/s
Unknown:
Time of contact = ?
Solution;
We know that momentum is the quantity of motion of body possess;
Momentum = mass x velocity
Momentum = 0.059 x 69 = 4.1kgm/s
Also; impulse is the effect of the force acting on a body;
impulse = force x time = momentum
So;
Force x time = momentum
Time = 
= 
= 0.014s
Answer:
Because of the presence of air resistance
Explanation:
When an object is in free fall, ideally there is only one force acting on it:
- The force of gravity, W = mg, that pushes the object downward (m= mass of the object, g = acceleration of gravity)
However, this is true only in absence of air (so, in a vacuum). When air is present, it exerts a frictional force on the object (called air resistance) with upward direction (opposite to the motion of free fall) and whose magnitude is proportional to the speed of the object.
Therefore, it turns out that as the object falls, its speed increases, and therefore the air resistance acting against it increases too; as a result, the at some point the air resistance becomes equal (in magnitude) to the force of gravity: when this happens, the net acceleration of the object becomes zero, and so the speed of the object does not increase anymore. This speed reached by the object is called terminal velocity.
