Answer:
The unbalanced force that caused the ball to stop was friction
Explanation:
As Newton's second law states, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on the object:
therefore, in order to move at constant speed, an object should have a net force of zero (balanced forces) acting on it.
In this case, the ball slows down and eventually comes to a stop: it means that the ball is decelerating, so there are unbalanced forces (net force different from zero) acting on it. The unbalanced force acting on the ball is the friction: friction is a force against the motion of the object, which is due to the contact between the surface of the ball and the surface of the street, and this force is responsible for slowing down the ball.
Both are metals and are good conductors of electricity and heat.
So the initial velocity is 15 m/s, the final velocity is 0 since it's at a complete stop and time is 10 seconds. Therefore:
Therefore, the acceleration is -1.5 m/s^2. The reason it's negative is due to the fact that the vector is going against it's original movement since it's decelerating.
The angular speed can be solve using the formula:
w = v / r
where w is the angular speed
v is the linear velocity
r is the radius of the object
w = ( 5 m / s ) / ( 5 cm ) ( 1 m / 100 cm )
w = 100 per second
Velocity (unit:m/s) of the wave is given with the formula:
v=f∧,
where f is the frequency which tells us how many waves are passing a point per second (unit: Hz) and ∧ is the wavelength, which tells us the length of those waves in metres (unit:m)
f=1/T , where T is the period of the wave.
In our case: f=1/3
∧=v/f=24m/s/1/3=24*3=72m
