What else can I help you with?
How is the initial velocity zero but the acceleration is not?
Going back to definitions, Velocity is change of distance with time; and acceleration is change in velocity with time. Initially, the velocity is zero, as is the acceleration, BUT the Force of Gravity attracts the falling mass, and causes velocity to appear. But the continued application of the Force of Gravity causes the velocity to increase. And as we know, increase in velocity is acceleration. [space for QED]
What would be the change in velocity for a 10 gram object dropped from the roof of a 20 meter building if it takes 2 seconds to reach the ground Hint acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 ms²?
Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)9.8 = (change in velocity) / (2 seconds)9.8 x 2 = change in velocity = 19.6 meters per second .Hint: The mass of the object and the height of the building are there just tothrow you off balance. You don't need either of them to answer the question.
How do you find final velocity given height and mass?
the final velocity assuming that the mass is falling and that air resistance can be ignored but it is acceleration not mass that is important (can be gravity) final velocity is = ( (starting velocity)2 x 2 x acceleration x height )0.5
How do you find time from the formula Velocity equals initial velocity plus gravity times time squared?
vf=vi+at² simplifying making vi=0, v=at²t²=v/at=√v/atime equals square root of velocity divided by acceleration (or gravity)
How do you calculate power when given speed acceleration weight and distance?
Power is equal to Force times velocity; P=Fv. You are given the 'speed', which I assume to be velocity. You also have acceleration. In order to find F, you need first to find the mass, which you can calculate from the weight, Fg, by dividing by the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8. You then have the mass. From here, multiply mass times acceleration times the velocity.
Why velocity is non zero when ball dropped to the ground?
When a ball is dropped, it starts with an initial velocity of zero. However, as it falls towards the ground, it accelerates due to gravity, causing its velocity to increase. Therefore, the velocity of the ball is non-zero as it falls towards the ground.
Will a shot bullet land at the same time dropped bullet?
No, the shot bullet will land after the dropped bullet. This is because the shot bullet has an initial horizontal velocity in addition to the vertical acceleration due to gravity, while the dropped bullet only has the vertical acceleration due to gravity.
Is the acceleration the same on an object that is drop or when its thrown?
No, the acceleration is not the same for an object that is dropped and an object that is thrown. When an object is dropped, it experiences a constant acceleration due to gravity. When an object is thrown, its acceleration can vary depending on factors such as the initial velocity and direction.
Describe a situation in which gravity causes a change in velocity why does a change in velocity happen?
When an object is dropped from a height, gravity causes it to accelerate towards the ground. This acceleration leads to a change in velocity as the object's speed increases. The change in velocity occurs because gravity exerts a force on the object, pulling it towards the Earth.
How does velocity change if something falls from a higher building?
As something falls from a higher building, its velocity increases due to the acceleration of gravity pulling it downward. The velocity will continue to increase until it reaches terminal velocity, which is the maximum speed at which the object can fall due to air resistance balancing the force of gravity.
What is the only factor needed to calculate change in velocity due to acceleration of gravity 9.8 m s?
The only factor needed to calculate change in velocity due to acceleration of gravity is time. The formula to calculate the change in velocity is: change in velocity = acceleration due to gravity * time.
A ball is dropped and falls for 3.3 seconds what is the ball's final velocity?
The final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground can be calculated using the equation: final velocity = initial velocity + (acceleration due to gravity * time). Assuming the ball was dropped from rest, the initial velocity would be 0 m/s. With the acceleration due to gravity being approximately 9.8 m/s^2, the final velocity would be 32.34 m/s.
If 2 balls are dropped from different floors of a building which ball has greater acceleration?
Both balls would have the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of the height from which they were dropped. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is constant and does not depend on the initial position of the objects.
How is the initial velocity zero but the acceleration is not?
Going back to definitions, Velocity is change of distance with time; and acceleration is change in velocity with time. Initially, the velocity is zero, as is the acceleration, BUT the Force of Gravity attracts the falling mass, and causes velocity to appear. But the continued application of the Force of Gravity causes the velocity to increase. And as we know, increase in velocity is acceleration. [space for QED]
Does uniform negative acceleration properly characterize the motion of a heavy object thrown violently downward from a tall building?
Yes, uniform negative acceleration (specifically gravity) can accurately describe the motion of a heavy object thrown downward from a tall building. The object would experience a constant acceleration due to gravity as it falls towards the ground. This acceleration would cause the object's velocity to increase over time until it reaches the ground.
What would be the change in velocity for a 10 gram object dropped from the roof of a 20 meter building if it takes 2 seconds to reach the ground Hint acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 ms²?
Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)9.8 = (change in velocity) / (2 seconds)9.8 x 2 = change in velocity = 19.6 meters per second .Hint: The mass of the object and the height of the building are there just tothrow you off balance. You don't need either of them to answer the question.
Effect of acceleration due to gravity?
Acceleration due to gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the Earth. It causes objects to accelerate at a rate of 9.81 m/s^2 towards the ground. This acceleration is responsible for the feeling of weight that we experience, and it also affects the trajectory of objects thrown or dropped.
