A tennis player strikes a tennis ball from underneath with her racket. The ball is sent straight up with an initial velocity of
Stels [109]
So the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s so that’s how quickly it will accelerate downwards. You can use a kinematic equation to determine your answer. We know that initial velocity was 19 m/s, final velocity must be 0 m/s because it’s at the very top, and the acceleration is -9.8 m/s. You can then use this equation:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2ax

Plugging in values:

1pt A cannon fires a 5-kg ball horizontally from a
Klio2033 [76]

Answer: Both cannonballs will hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation:

Suppose that a given object is on the air. The only force acting on the object (if we ignore air friction and such) will be the gravitational force.

then the acceleration equation is only on the vertical axis, and can be written as:

a(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)

Now, to get the vertical velocity equation, we need to integrate over time.

v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the initial velocity of the object in the vertical axis.

if the object is dropped (or it only has initial velocity on the horizontal axis) then v0 = 0m/s

and:

v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t

Now, if two objects are initially at the same height (both cannonballs start 1 m above the ground)

And both objects have the same vertical velocity, we can conclude that both objects will hit the ground at the same time.

You can notice that the fact that one ball is fired horizontally and the other is only dropped does not affect this, because we only analyze the vertical problem, not the horizontal one. (This is something useful to remember, we can separate the vertical and horizontal movement in these type of problems)

Velocity can best be described by which of the following statements?
pogonyaev

Answer: Velocity can best be described as, the speed in a given direction.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the Velocity of a body.

<h3>What is Velocity of a body?</h3>
  • Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
  • It's a vector quantity and is measured in m/s.
  • It can be positive, negative or zero.
  • A body is said to be in uniform motion, then its velocity remains constant.
  • Change in velocity can be a change in speed.
  • The magnitude of velocity is less than or equal to speed.

Thus, we can conclude that, the option C is best describing velocity.

Is the frictional force the same as the applied force when the net force equals zero?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Since the net force is to the right (in the direction of the applied force), then the applied force must be greater than the friction force. The friction force can be determined using an understanding of net force as the vector sum of all the forces.

Why wil an ice cube melt if it is compressed even if it remains at the same temp
Gnoma [55]
No, it will only melt if the temperature is lowered. If you compress it, it will change the shape, but it will not change the state it is in (i.e. solid).
