Answer:
Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.
- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.
The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.
Answer:
Ultrasound imaging.
Explanation:
It uses high-frequency sound waves to view inside the body.
The acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2 while the deceleration is - 1.2 m/s^2.
<h3>
What is the acceleration?</h3>
Let us recall that the acceleration is the change in the speed of a body with time. We have been told that the body accelerates for 3s and then decelerates to 2s. This implies that the total time that the object spent in motion is 5 s.
Thus;
v = u + at
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time taken
v - u/t = a
a = 6 - 0/3
= 2 m/s^2
Again;
v - u/t = a
a = 0 - 6/5
a = - 1.2m/s^2

Answer:
Explanation:
Before the Rutherford's model of the atom, the plum pudding model proposed by J.J Thomson through his experiment using the gas discharge tube was the prevalent structure of the atom known.
Through Thomson, it was widely and popularly believed that the atom is made up of a pool of negatively charged particles.
When Rutherford performed the Alpha scattering experiment using a thing gold foil, he observed that all the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil and just a few of them were deflected back.
To explain this, the suggested the atomic or nuclear model of that atom in which an atom has a small positively charged center called nucleus where all the mass is concentrated.
Today, the suggestion that an atom is made up of nucleus is highly relevant and still consistent.
Answer:
5.7141 m
Explanation:
Here the potential and kinetic energy will balance each other
This is the initial velocity of the system and the final velocity is 0
t = Time taken = 0.04 seconds
F = Force = 18000 N
a = Acceleration
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Equation of motion
From Newton's second law
Squarring both sides
The height from which the student fell is 5.7141 m
