Carla holds a ball 1.5 m above the ground. Daniel, leaning out of a car window, also holds a ball 1.5 mabove the ground. Daniel

drives past Carla at 40 mph and, just as he passes her, both release their balls at the same instant. Who's ball hits the ground first?

Answer:Same instant

Explanation:

Both balls hit the ground at the same instant

When Daniel drops the ball then it has an additional horizontal component of velocity which will cause the ball to move horizontally while falling down,

For both the cases ball has zero initial vertical velocity and needs to cover a distance of 1.5 m .

So time taken to cover 1.5 m vertically will be same

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The correct prediction will be:  

The temperature of the surface of the ball bearing when rubbed over glass will be the least.

The incorrect prediction:

The tennis ball over the linoleum floor will have no friction, as the temperatures will not change.

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
Aleksandr [31]
Let
upthrust = T
weight = W = mg
Air resistance = F

When balloon is descending, air resistance acts upwards (positive)
By Newton's first law, the net force on the balloon is zero, or
T+F-W=0......................(1)

Let w=weight of material dumped so that balloon now travels upwards at constant speed.
Air resistance acts against motion, namely downwards.
The Newton's equation now reads
T-F-(W-w)=0................(2)

Subtract (2) from (1)
T+F-W - (T-F-(W-w)) = 0
Solve for w
w=2F, or
the WEIGHT of material to be released equals twice the resistance of air.

A pump lifts water from a lake to a large tank 20 m above the lake. How much work against gravity does the pump do as it transfe
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

980 kJ

Explanation:

Work = change in energy

W = mgh

W = (1000 kg/m³ × 5.0 m³) (9.8 m/s²) (20 m)

W = 980,000 J

W = 980 kJ

The pump does 980 kJ of work.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

884Hz

Explanation:

Beats is the absolute difference between two frequencies therefore

Beats = f1-f2

4=f1-880

F1=880+4

F1=884Hz

babunello [35]

Answer:

he maximum frequency occurs when the denominator is minimum

 f’= f₀  \frac{343}{343 + v_s}

Explanation:

This is a doppler effect exercise, where the sound source is moving

           f = fo \frac{v}{v-v)s}      when the source moves towards the observer

           f ’=f_o  \frac{v}{v+v_{sy}}  Alexandrian source of the observer

the maximum frequency occurs when the denominator is minimum, for both it is the point of maximum approach of the two objects

          f’= f₀  \frac{343}{343 + v_s}
