A grape is thrown straight up in the air. If it was thrown at 2 m/s, how high will it go in the air?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Answer: Height is 0.204 m

Explanation:

At the highest point, it is called the maximum height.

• From third newton's equation of motion:

${ \rm{ {v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2gs}}$

• At maximum height, v is zero

• u is initial speed

• g is -9.8 m/s²

• s is the height

${ \rm{0 {}^{2} = {2}^{2} - (2 \times 9.8 \times s)}} \\ \\ { \rm{4 = 19.6s}} \\ \\ { \rm{s = 0.204 \: m}}$

Velocity vector and acceleration vector in a uniform circular motion are related as.

mr_godi [17]

They are related as $\bold{\underline {v}\,.\,\underline a }= \bold{0}$

In a uniform circular motion, the magnitude of the speed does not change during the travel and only the instantaneous direction changes.
This speed is always directed along the tangent to the circle at a given point. (refer to the figure attached)
For any circular motion, the must-have acceleration is the centripetal acceleration that is directed towards the centre of the circular locus (if the motion has a tangential acceleration, it has a tangential acceleration additionally).
Therefore, both the directions of the tangential speed and the centripetal acceleration are orthogonal to each other (perpendicular: one is 90 degrees apart from the other).
In mathematics, 2 vectors ( $\underline p$ , $\underline q$ ) that are perpendicular to each other have a quality that their dot product ( $\underline p\,.\, \underline q$ ) equal to zero vector ( $\bold 0$ ) which is written as $\undeline p\,.\, \underline q = \bold 0$ .
This quality can be considered when dealing with the velocity vector and the acceleration vector in a manner $\underline v\,.\, \underline a =\bold 0$ .

A car travels across Texas m miles at the rate of t miles per hour. How many hours does the trip take??

Marianna [84]

Answer: The trip takes $\frac{m}{t}hours$

Explanation:

Velocity $V$ is the variation of the position of a body (distance traveled $d$ ) with time $T$ :

$V=\frac{d}{T}$

In this case, the car travels a distance $d=m miles$ at a velocity $V=t \frac{miles}{hour}$ and we need to find the time it takes the trip.

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{d}{V}=\frac{m miles}{t \frac{miles}{hour}}$

Finally:

$T=\frac{m}{t}hours$

Does friction always oppose relative motion?

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Friction is a force that opposes relative motion between systems in contact. One of the simpler characteristics of friction is that it is parallel to the contact surface between systems and always in a direction that opposes motion or attempted motion of the systems relative to each other.

The sphere that refers to Earths water is called the

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Earth Spheres. Earth's Spheres. Everything in Earth's system can be placed into one of four major subsystems: land, water, living things, or air. These four subsystems are called “spheres.” Specifically, they are the lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), biosphere (living things), and atmosphere (air).
