Physics
1 answer:
professor190 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:. The acceleration of the object is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass.

Explanation:

According to Newton s Second Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Force and Acceleration, a force upon an object causes it to accelerate according to the formula net force = mass x acceleration.

Which of the following statements does NOT use the term angular size or angular distance correctly?
Verizon [17]

Answer: Statement 1 is incorrect.

Reason:

Unit of measure of angular distance is not meters.

Explanation:

The term 'angular size' is used to describe the apparent size of the objects in the night sky.

The angular distance is defined as the angle through which an object moves on a circular path. The SI unit is radian.

Other units are revolution (rev) and degrees.

In statement 1, angular distance is measured in meters which is incorrect. In other options, there is no factual mistake so they are correct.

Let's discuss them,

Statement 2:

Here, we are talking about the use of outstretched hand to estimate the angular distances and sizes which is correct.

Statement 3:

This statement talks about the same angular sizes of the sun and the moon, here the term is again used correctly.

Statement 4:

Here, the angular distance is measured in the correct units i.e, degrees so this statement is also correct.

A marble is dropped off the top of a building. Find it's velocity and how far below to its dropping point for the first 10 secon
Yuri [45]

consider the motion in y-direction

v₀ = initial velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = g = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time

v = final velocity at any time "t"

velocity at any time is given as

v = v₀ + at

v = 0 + (- 9.8) t

v = (- 9.8) t

so at t = 1  , v = (- 9.8) (1) = - 9.8 m/s

at t = 2  , v = (- 9.8) (2) = - 19.6 m/s

at t = 3  , v = (- 9.8) (3) = - 29.4 m/s     and so on



Y₀ = initial position where the marble was dropped from = 0 m

Y = final position at any time "t"

final position at any time "t" is given as

Y = Y₀ + v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

Y = 0 + (0) t + (0.5) (-9.8) t²

Y = - 4.9 t²

at t = 1 , Y = - 4.9 (1)² = - 4.9 m

at t = 2 , Y = - 4.9 (2)² = - 19.6 m

at t = 3 , Y = - 4.9 (3)² = - 44.1 m  

and So on
