Answer:

Newton's Third Law of Motion

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law of Motion which states that, for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.

This ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.

In this scenario, a ball bounced by a basketball player on the floor bounces back up at her.

According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, the statement above simply means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects i.e the ball and floor. The size of the force on the ball equals the size of the force on the floor. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.

Hence, the ball bounced by the basketball player on the floor would bounce back in equal magnitude.

Which graph shows the relationship between temperature, X, and kinetic energy, Y?
strojnjashka [21]
Answer: see the graph attached (straight line, passing through the origin and positive slope).


Justification:

1) Kinetic energy and temperature are in direct proportion. That means:

i)  Being kinetic energy y and temperature x: y α x

ii) That implies: y = kx,where k is the constant of proportionality.

iii) The graph is a line that passes through the origin and has positive slope k (k = y / x).

2) The proportional relationship between kinetic energy (KE) and temperature (T) is shown by the Boltzman law, which states:

Average KE = [3 / 2] KT, where K is Boltzman's constant, whose graph is of the form shown in the figure attached.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration
lidiya [134]

Answer:

1.4m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

 Average velocity  = \frac{total distance }{time }  

 Total time taken  = 5s + 6s  = 11s

The first distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 5 = 7m

     second distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 6  = 8.4m

So;

  Average velocity  = \frac{7 + 8.4}{11}    = 1.4m/s

From a window that is 20 m from the ground a stone with a speed of 10m / s is thrown vertically upwards. Calculate:
Oduvanchick [21]

a)

consider the motion in upward direction as positive and down direction as negative

Y₀ = initial position of the stone = 20 m

v₀ = initial velocity of the stone = 10 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

Y = final position of the stone when it reach the maximum height

v = final velocity at the maximum height = 0 m/s

t = time taken to reach the maximum height

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

0² = 10² + 2 (- 9.8) (Y - 20)

Y = 25.1 m


also using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

0 = 10 + (- 9.8) t

t = 1.02 sec


b)

consider the motion in upward direction as positive and down direction as negative

Y₀ = initial position of the stone = 20 m

v₀ = initial velocity of the stone = 10 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

Y = final position of the stone when it reach the ground = 0 m

t = time taken to reach the ground

Using the equation

Y = Y₀ + v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

0 = 20 + 10 t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 3.3 sec
