Answer:
4th answer
Explanation:
The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the speed.
gradient = distance / time = speed
Here, the gradient is a constant till 30s. So it has travelled at a constant speed. It means it had not accelarated till 30s. and has stopped moving at 30s.
Answer:
Gravity is the centripetal force when the moon orbits the earth.
The ground exerts an equal force on the golf ball.
<span>31.3 m/s
Since the water balloon is being launched at a 45 degree angle, the horizontal and vertical speeds will be identical. Also the time the balloon takes to reach its peak altitude will match the time it takes to fall. So let's create a few expressions about what we know.
Distance the water balloon travels at velocity v for time t
d = vt
Total time required for the entire trip is double since the balloon goes up, then goes down
t = 2v/a
Now let's plug in the numbers we have, assuming the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2
t = 2v/9.8
100 = vt
Substitute 2v/9.8 for t in the 2nd formula
100 = v(2v/9.8)
Solve for v.
100 = v(2v/9.8)
100 = 2v^2/9.8
980. = 2v^2
490 = v^2
22.13594 = v
So we now know that both the horizontal velocity and vertical velocity needed is 22.13594 m/s. Let's verify that
2*22.13594 / 9.8 = 4.51754
So it will take 4.51754 second for the balloon to hit the ground after being launched.
4.51754 * 22.13594 = 100
And during that time it will travel 100 meters horizontally.
But we need to know the total velocity. And the Pythagorean theorem comes to the rescue. Just square the 2 velocities, add them together, and take the square root. We already know the square is 490 from the work above, so
sqrt(490+490) = sqrt(980) = 31.30495 m/s</span>
