Anna is sitting in a moving cart and throws a ball straight up. Theoretically, the ball should land in the cart, but it lands on

the ground a little before the cart. What is the reason for the difference in the ranges of the ball and the cart? There is no external horizontal force acting on the ball or the cart. There is no external vertical force acting on the ball or the cart. There is a difference in the external horizontal forces acting on the ball and the cart. There is a difference in the external vertical forces acting on the ball and the cart.

The guys before me was almost right. But instead of it being vertical it is horizontal.

Answer:

There is a difference in the external horizontal forces acting on the ball and the cart.

Explanation:

When ball is thrown upwards from a moving cart then in that case the acceleration of the ball in vertical direction is due to gravity so it will raised up and again come back to ground.

While during this vertical motion it will also move horizontally with initial speed of cart at which it was moving at the moment when ball is thrown.

Now if ball is not landed on the cart again then we can say that both cart and ball are not accelerated with same acceleration in horizontal direction due to which they both will cover different distances in horizontal direction for the same time interval

So we can say that correct answer will be

There is a difference in the external horizontal forces acting on the ball and the cart.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

E. downward and constant

Explanation:

Freefall is a special case of motion with constant acceleration because the acceleration due to gravity is always constant and downward. This is true even when an object is thrown upward or has zero velocity.

For example, when a ball is thrown up in the air, the ball's velocity is initially upward. Since gravity pulls the object toward the earth with a constant acceleration ggg, the magnitude of velocity decreases as the ball approaches maximum height. At the highest point in its trajectory, the ball has zero velocity, and the magnitude of velocity increases again as the ball falls back toward the earth.

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Which trailer has more downward pressure where it attaches to the car?
VARVARA [1.3K]

The one that is loaded worst. The overall weight is not important; tongue weight is a matter of loading. Our 12,000 lb snow cat trailer, which has stops to position the cat properly, has under 100 lbs tongue weight. Excessive tongue weight is a Bad Thing because it reduces weight on the towing vehicle's front wheels, leading to instability.

How is a seismograph similar to an X-ray?
aleksklad [387]

Answer: Seismograph is an instrument that is used to measure the vibration of the earthquake. It is based on seismic waves. X ray is an electromagnetic energy wave that is used for CAT ( computerized axial tomography) scan.

Hence, both seismic wave and X ray are energy waves.

The velocity of seismic waves is different in different media. Similarly, X ray loses its amplitude depending upon the dense layer of the tissue.

A mass is tied to a string and swung in a horizontal circle with a constant angular speed. show answer No Attempt If this speed
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The tension in the string is quadrupled i.e. increased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

The tension in the string is the centripetal force. This force is given by

F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

m is the mass, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

It follows that F \propto v^2, provided m and r are constant.

When v is doubled, the new force, F_1, is

F_1 = \dfrac{m(2v)^2}{r} = \dfrac{4mv^2}{r} = 4\dfrac{mv^2}{r} = 4F

Hence, the tension in the string is quadrupled.
