Velocity is the same as the formula for speed, the only difference is
velocity has direction. Velocity is distance over time. Given is 4,400
kilometers travelled west in 4 hours. Applying the given equation, we wil have
4,400/4 = 1,100 km/hr west
I think that by "Classical physics" is meant low speed things. By low speed, I think is meant speed far below very roughly half the speed of light, so that Relativistic, special or general, effects can be ignored. Or at least it is hoped that they can be ignored.
Fire extinguishers and rockets get propelled by forcing out large amounts of material (gases under very high pressure) through a nozzle, and the RECOIL from that propels something forward. So, if the action is the ejection of material, the reaction (recoil) is the ejector moving along the same line in the other direction. And that's an example of Newton's third law.
Given a propulsion system, the magnitude of the force recoiling on the ejector will change the momentum of the ejector, often written as the equation F=ma where F is the force, m is the mass being accelerated, and a being the acceleration.
Just as something will stay still until it is moved - inertia - so once set in uniform motion in a straight line, the thing will continue in that motion, theoretically for ever or until something alters its momentum. Newton's first law is to the effect of "every body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless acted on by a resultant external force". Which, I think, is where the concept of inertia stems from.
I think that the above mostly tcuches on the 3 laws.Any more help needed, please ask.
Answer:
-39.2m/s
Explanation:
Using the equation of motion;
v = u + at
Since the ball is thrown upward, the acceleration due to gravity acting on it will be negative, hence a = -g
v = u - gt
Since g = 9.8m/s²
t = 4.0s
u = 0m/s
v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)
v = 0 + (-9.8)(4)
v = -39.2m/s
Hence the speed of the ball before release is -39.2m/s
<span>The water is clearer, has higher oxygen levels, and freshwater fish such as trout and heterotrophs can be found. In the middle of the river, the width increases, so do the species of aquatic green plants and algae. Toward the mouth of the river, the water becomes murky from all the sediments that it has picked up upstream.<span>
