Answer:

Explanation:

Near the earth's surface where gravity is approximately 10 m/s² downward

v = u + at

v = 5 + (-10)(1) = -5 m/s

so it has the same speed but in the opposite (downward) direction.

Answer:

Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry.

A nonzero net force acts on a particle and does work. Which one of the following statements is true?

arlik [135]

Answer:

option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

the kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of the speed of the body.

As the kinetic energy change, the speed of the body also change.

Option (D) is correct.

A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it st

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by the product of mass and velocity with which it is moving.

Let the mass of ball is m. A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it struck the wall.

Initial speed of the ball is v and final speed, when it rebounds, is (-v). The change in momentum is given by :

p = final momentum - initial momentum

$p=-mv-mv\\\\p=-2mv$

So, the magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).
