A Styrofoam ball has just been shot straight up. Air resistance is not negligible (free body diagram)

In a free body diagram for an object projected upwards;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards.
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

An object projected upwards is subjected to influence of acceleration due to gravity.

As the object accelerates upwards, its velocity decreases until the object reaches maximum height where its velocity becomes zero and as the object descends its velocity increases, which eventually becomes maximum before the object hits the ground.

To construct a free body diagram for this motion, we consider the following;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

<u>For instance:</u>

upward motion for velocity  ↑        downward motion for velocity  ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

acceleration due to gravity ↓

                                             ↓

                                             ↓

You are In-line skates at the top of a small hill. Your potential energy is equal to 1000 J. The last time we checked, your mass
stira [4]

A) <u>Weight = mass × acceleration (due to gravity)  </u>

= 60×9.8  

= 588 N  

<u>B) Potential energy = mass x gravity x change in height </u>

1,000 = 60.0 x 9.8 x h

h =  1.7 m      

<u>C) Kinetic energyF = potential energyI </u>

KEF = 1/2mv2  

PEI = mgh = 1,000 J

1/2mv2 = 1,000

1/2(60.0)v2 = 1,000  

v2 = 33.33

v = 5.77 m/s

An alarm clock has a resistance of 14,000 ohms and is plugged into a 120-volt outlet. How much power does the clock use?
yan [13]

Power used by the clock=1.03 W

Explanation:

resistance= 14000 ohm

voltage=120 V

The formula for the power is given by

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

P=(120)²/14000

P=1.03 W

Conductivity in a metal results from the metal atoms having
maks197457 [2]

Answer: A) highly mobile electrons in the valence shell

Explanation: conductivity in metals is a result of the movement of electrically charged particles—the electrons. These free electrons also known as valence electrons are free to move, and as a result they can travel through the lattice that forms the physical structure of a metal. The presence of valence electrons determines a metal's conductivity. However, several other factors can affect the conductivity of a metal such as impurities, temperature, magnetic fields etc.

Manuel is holding a 5 kg box. How much force us the box exerting on him? in what direction
Free_Kalibri [48]
It will be 49 Newtons of force in the down direction. To find the force in newtons, you multiply the mass (5 kg) by the gravity (which if 9.8).
