Explanation:

When an object slows down, its acceleration is opposite to the direction of its motion. This is known as deceleration.

Explain why energy is needed in active transport.

alexira [117]

Because if not it wouldn't be able to move for example if you don't eat to get the energy you need you would be weak and not be able to move as much and not be able to transport yourself to places :) hope this helps

At the same instant that a 0.50 kg ball is dropped from 25 m above Earth, a second ball, with a mass of .25 kg, is thrown straig

Anettt [7]

Answer:

A. 7.1m

B. 3.55m/s

C. 1.775m/s^2

Explanation:

First step is to identify given parameters;

Ball 1: m₁ = 0.5kg, u (initial velocity) =0, t = 2seconds

Ball 2: m₂ = 0.25kg, u = 15m/s, t = 2seconds

Second step: we determine the y-coordinate of ball 1 after 2 seconds, using the equation of motion under gravity as shown below;

$y = ut - \frac{gt^2}{2}$

$y_{1} = 0 X 2 - \frac{9.8 X2^2}{2}$

$y_{1} = -19.6m$

Recall, that the ball was thrown from a height of 25m, total y-coordinate of ball 1 after 2 seconds becomes 25m +(-19.6m)

[tex]y_{1} = 5.4m[/tex]

Third step: we determine the y-coordinate of ball 2 after 2 seconds

$y_{2} = 15 X 2 - \frac{9.8 X2^2}{2}$

$y_{2} = 10.4m$

Fourth step: we determine the y-component of the center mass of the two balls

$y = \frac{m_{1}y_{1} +m_{2}y_{2}}{m_{1} +m_{2} }$

$y = \frac{(0.5)X(5.4) +(0.25) X (10.4)}{(0.5 +0.25) }$

y = 7.1m

Fifth step: we solve B part of the question; velocity of the center mass of the two balls

$Velocity = \frac{distance of center mass of the two balls (y)}{time}$

$velocity = \frac{7.1 m}{2 s}$

velocity = 3.55m/s

Sixth step: we solve C part of the question; acceleration of the center mass of the two balls

$acceleration = \frac{velocity}{time}$

$acceleration = \frac{3.55}{2}$

acceleration = 1.775 m/s^2
