The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.

After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).

Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.

Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.

ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

That is a difference between a law and a hypothesis?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

<em>A hypothesis</em> is a limited explanation of a phenomenon; a scientific theory is an in-depth explanation of the observed phenomenon.

<em> A law</em> is a statement about an observed phenomenon or a unifying concept, according to Kennesaw State University. ... However, Newton's law doesn't explain what gravity is, or how it works.

A ball of mass m, attached to the end of a horizontal cord, is rotated in a circle of radius r on a frictionless horizontal surf
kirza4 [7]

Answer:v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}

Explanation:

Given

Ball of mass m

maximum Bearable Tension in string is F

Let length of the cord be L m and moving at a speed of v m/s

Here Tension will Provide Centripetal Force

T=Centripetal Force

F=T=\frac{mv^2}{L}

v=\sqrt{\frac{FL}{m}}

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and (2 points)
Scorpion4ik [409]

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Explanation:

A wave is a traveling disturbance that  carries energy from one location to  another. All waves move in straight lines  outward and away from the source of a  disturbance. Like the radiating circular  ripples, the waves of water carry energy  away from where a rock was dropped into  the pond.

Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying  energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves  outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and  over again from a single source.

As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily  displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down  or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not  carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move  through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium  will return to its original state or position.

Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Assume a small 11 kg crate is attached to a parachute. The chute pulls up on the crate with 150 N.
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

a. The net force is the upward force of the chute minus the weight of the crate.

∑F = F − mg

∑F = 150 N − (11 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

∑F = 42.2 N

b. From Newton's second law, the net force equals the mass times acceleration:

∑F = ma

42.2 N = (11 kg) a

a = 3.84 m/s²

c. Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.  Assuming the crate is released from rest:

v = at + v₀

v = (3.84 m/s²) (5 s) + (0 m/s)

v = 19.2 m/s
