Explanation:

probably the 1st law of motion, it'll continue at in a straight line as long as no external force is added or the net force equals to zero, same for the centrifugal force and the gravitational force

A rock is thrown from a height of 2.0 m at a window that is located 9.0 m above the ground. The initial velocity of the rock is
ELEN [110]

Answer:

The value is  x = 11.81 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height is h =  2.0 m

   The height of the window is d = 9.0 \ m

    The initial velocity of the rock is u =  20 \ m/s

    The angle at which it is thrown is \theta  =  40

Generally the  vertical component of the velocity of the stone is mathematically represented as

    v_y = 20 sin (40)

=>v_y = 12.86 \ m/s

Generally the height of the window from the ground is mathematically represented as using kinematic equation as

      d = h  +  v_yt + \frac{1}{2} gt^2

=>   9 = 2  +12.86 t + \frac{1}{2} * - 9.8 t^2

Here g is negative -9.8 m/s^2 because the direction of the stone is against gravity

   So

       4.9 t^2 -12.86 t + 7 =0

Solving this quadratic equation using quadratic formula we obtain

     t = 0.770 s

Generally the velocity of the stone on the x axis is mathematically represented as

       v_x =  20 * cos(40 )

=>    v_x =  15.32 \  m/s

Generally the distance between the person throwing the rock and the window is mathematically represented as

       x =  v_x * t

=>    x =  15.32 * 0.771

=>    x = 11.81 \ m

F both the mass of the body and the force acting on it are doubled, then acceleration--------------------
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

d. remains same​

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Force = mass * acceleration

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{mass}

If both the mass of the body and the force acting on it are doubled, then acceleration remains the same​.

Given the following data;

Mass = 2Mass

Force = 2Force

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Acceleration = \frac {2Force}{2Mass}

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{Mass}
