A 55 kg boy is throwing a 0.23 kg baseball up in the air. He decides to see how high he can throw it and uses a timer to see how long the ball stays in the air. He throws the ball as hard as he can straight up in the air and finds that it takes 5.5 seconds to come back to him. How long did it take for the ball to reach its highest point? (half the time it was in the air)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.75 s

Explanation:

From the question given above,

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5.5 s

Time taken (t) to reach the greatest height =...?

Thus, we can obtain the time taken (t) for the ball to reach the greatest height as follow:

T = 2t

Where:

T is the total time spent by the ball in air.

t is the time taken to reach the greatest height

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5.5 s

Time taken (t) to reach the greatest height =...?

T = 2t

5.5 = 2 × t

Divide both side by 2

t = 5.5/2

t = 2.75 s

Therefore, the time taken (t) to reach the greatest height is 2.75 s.

What is galaxy?

Galaxies are vast systems of gravity-bound gas, dust, dark matter, and anything from a million to a trillion stars. Supermassive black holes are expected to be present at the centers of almost all big galaxies. The sun is merely one of 100 to 400 billion rotating stars in our own galaxy, the Milky Way.

There are more galaxies visible as we gaze farther into space. According to a 2016 study, there are two trillion, or two million million, galaxies in the observable universe. While some of those far-off systems resemble our own Milky Way galaxy, others are very dissimilar,

There are three general types of galaxies elliptical, spiral, and irregular.

So the best shape is second option elliptical with boundary.

Branden ran at 6 m/s for a time of 300s. How much distance did he cover during his run?

Answers

Answer:

The covered distance was 1800 [m]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the following formula of kinematics. It is important to make it clear that Branden's speed never changes during that time, or therefore the speed is constant.

[tex]x = x_{o}+v*t\\[/tex]

where:

x = distance [m]

Xo = initial position = 0

v = velocity = 6 [m/s]

t = 300 [s]

Now replacing we have:

x = 0 + (6*300)

x = 1800 [m]

What is force?

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

Every action has an equal and opposite response, according to Newton's Third Law. Burning fuel in a rocket causes a push that propels the rocket forward from the front. As a result, the exhaust gas is pushed in the opposite direction and equally.

The force the rocket exerts on the air is in the direction opposite to

the force that the air exerts on the rocket.

applied to it. What is the amount of the force?
Problem 5- An object accelerates 12.0 m/s2 when a force of 6.0 N is applied to it. What is the
mass of the object?

Answers

Answer:

Problem 1-

The acceleration = 5 m/s²

Problem 2 -

The acceleration = 3.[tex]\overline 3[/tex] m/s²

Problem 3 -

The acceleration = 2.5 m/s²

Problem 4-

The force applied = 7.5 N

Problem 5-

The mass of the object,  = 0.5 kg.

Explanation:

Problem 1-

The mass of the ball, m = 0.5 kg

The force (applied) with which it was hit, F = 2.5 N

The acceleration, a = Force/Mass = 2.5 N/(0.5 kg) = 5 m/s²

The acceleration = 5 m/s²

Problem 2 -

The mass of the box, m = 15 kg

The force (applied) with which it was hit, F = 50 N

The acceleration, a = Force/Mass = 50 N/(15 kg) = 10/3 = 3.[tex]\overline 3[/tex] m/s²

The acceleration = 3.[tex]\overline 3[/tex] m/s²

Problem 3 -

The mass of the object, m = 2.0 kg

The force (applied) with which it was hit, F = 5.0 N

The acceleration, a = Force/Mass = 5.0 N/(2.0 kg) = 2.5 m/s²

The acceleration = 2.5 m/s²

Problem 4-

The mass of the object, m = 3.0 kg

The acceleration, a, of the object = 2.5 m/s²

The force applied to it, F = Mass × Acceleration = 3.0 kg × 2.5 m/s² = 7.5 N

The force applied = 7.5 N

Problem 5-

The acceleration, a, of the object = 12 m/s²

The force applied, F = 6.0 N

The mass of the object, m = Force/Acceleration = 6.0 N/(12 m/s²) = 0.5 kg

The mass of the object,  = 0.5 kg.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms live in and interact with each other in an environment.

Forests are homes to orangutans, elephants, tigers, and other animals.

As more than 8.6 million acres of forest were destroyed in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea to build palm oil plantations, this may lead to the following consequences:

1.More number of natural disasters will occur.

2. Disease will spread.

A box is being pushed across the floor at a constant velocity with an
applied force of 30N, what is the magnitude of the frictional force acting
on this box?

Answers

Answer:

Magnitude of frictional force = 30 N

Explanation:

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

Fn=m.a

The net force is the vector addition of each individual force. If the sum of all the forces acting on an object is zero, then the acceleration is zero. That means the object moves at a constant speed or is at rest.

When an object is pushed across a horizontal rough surface, there are two forces acting in the direction of the motion: The applied force and the frictional force.

If the applied force is greater than the frictional force, then the object moves at a constant positive acceleration. If the frictional force is greater than the applied force, then the object won't move at all (if it was at rest) or will start a deaccelerated motion (braking).

Finally, if both forces are equal, the object will move at a constant speed or remains at rest. Since the box is moving at a constant speed, we can conclude the frictional force equals the applied force:

Magnitude of frictional force = 30 N

What do zooplankton and krill have in common?

Answers

Hello, thank you for choosing brainly today. My name is Ethan and I'll be solving your question. "What do zooplankton and krill have in common?"

Krill and plankton are two groups of organisms found in the ocean. Krill are species of crustacean related to shrimp, and serve as a very important link in the food chain of the sea. Plankton consist of a larger group of organisms with much more variety, including bacteria, algae, protozoans, jellyfish and some species of cephalopods.

Propulsion

The primary factor that determines whether a species is plankton or not is propulsion. Plankton organisms lack the ability to swim against the tide, and instead float from place to place on sea currents. They may be capable of some movement, and some types of plankton can even hunt for food, but none is powerful enough to make its own headway through the ocean. Adult krill are capable of swimming against currents, but their larvae and eggs fall into the plankton category.

Variation

Krill are crustaceans of the Euphausiacea order, which consists of 86 different species. Plankton, on the other hand, can come from a wide variety of different species and orders. Plankton fall into three broad categories, depending on their primary function. Phytoplankton are plant-like organisms, capable of photosynthesis. Zooplankton are animal plankton species that get their nutrients by eating other microscopic organisms. Bacterioplankton are the smallest plankton, and often serve as food for zooplankton and other lifeforms.

Appearance

Krill species have similar characteristics and generally resemble tiny shrimp. Most species reach around 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) as adults, while the largest species can reach sizes of up to 15 centimeters (5.9 inches). Plankton, on the other hand, consists of organisms of many different shapes and sizes. The smallest categories include microscopic viruses, protozoans, small crustaceans, and other tiny organisms. At the larger end of the scale, megaplankton are any plankton over 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) in size, and include large animals, such as cephalopods and jellyfish. The largest plankton is the lion's mane jellyfish, which can reach 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) in diameter and grow tentacles more than 36.5 meters (120 feet) long.

Role

Plankton and krill serve similar, but slightly different, roles in the food chain. Phytoplankton synthesize nutrients, while bacterioplankton recycle nutrients from decomposing matter in the ocean, providing some of the fundamental sources of nutrition for all ocean creatures. Zooplankton serve to concentrate those nutrients by eating smaller plankton and serving as food for larger creatures. Krill are one step up in the food chain, eating plankton and serving as a nutrient bridge from microscopic life forms to larger fish and mammals.

A runner completes two laps around a 400-m track. She runs the first lap in 1 min 32 s, and the second lap in 1 min 49 s. What is her average speed?

Answers

Answer:

The average speed is 3.98 [tex]\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

Speed ​​is a scalar quantity that shows the relationship between the distance traveled and the time taken.

In other words, speed is a scalar quantity that determines the ratio of the distance traveled by a body or object and the time it takes to cover that distance. Speed ​​does not take direction into account.

Average speed refers to the total distance traveled during a given time, which is equivalent to saying that it is the ratio of distance and time.

[tex]average speed=\frac{total distance}{totaltime}[/tex]

In this case you know that a runner completes two laps around a 400 m track, so the total distance traveled is 800 m.

On the other hand, you know that the runner completes the first lap in 1 min 32 s, and the second lap in 1 min 49 s. Being 1 min equivalent to 60 s, the first round is completed in 92 s and the second round in 109 s. So the total time to complete the two laps around the track is 92 s + 109 s = 201 s.

That is, being:

total distance=800 mtotal time= 201 s

and replacing in the definition of average speed:

[tex]average speed=\frac{800 m}{201 s}[/tex]

you get:

average speed= 3.98 [tex]\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The average speed is 3.98 [tex]\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Answer:

3.98 m/s

Explanation:

To find speed, use the formula:

Speed = Distance / time

The Distance is 400 + 400 = 800 m

The time in seconds is (60 + 32) + (60 + 49) = 201 sec

Now use the formula

Speed = 800 m / 201 s = 3.98 m/s
