Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

To explain this, let's consider a tennis ball being launched from the top of a very high building.

Now, if the tennis ball is launched horizontally without any upward angle but with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. In this motion, If there is no gravity, the tennis ball would continue in motion at that same speed of 10 m/s in the horizontal direction. However, in reality, gravity causes the tennis ball to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s for every second. This implies that the vertical velocity component is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s every second.

Thus, after 1 second, horizontal velocity component will remain 10 m/s and vertical component will be 9.8 m/s × 1 = 9.8 m/s downwards.

Also, after 2 seconds, the vertical velocity component will remain 10 m/s, however the vertical component will now be 9.8 × 2 = 19.6 m/s downwards.

Same procedure is repeated as t increases by 1 second.

sing a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 361 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 455 N
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a)-2m/s^2

b)27.2m/s

Explanation:

Hello! The first step to solve this problem is to find the mass of the block remembering that the definition of weight force is mass by gravity (g=9.8m / s ^ 2)

W=455N=weight

W=mg

W=455N=weight

m=\frac{W}{g} =\frac{455}{9.81}=46.38kg

The second step is to draw the free body diagram of the body (see attached image) and use Newton's second law that states that the sum of the forces is equal to mass by acceleration

a=\frac{T-W}{m} =\frac{361-455}{46.38kg} =-2m/s^2

for point b we use the equations of motion with constant acceleration to find the velocity

Vf=\sqrt{X(2)(a)+Vo^2}

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed =0

A = acceleration =2m/s

X = displacement =6.8m

Solving

Vf=\sqrt{(6.8)(2)(2)+0^2}=27.2m/s
