Answer:
An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. ... A net force = unbalanced force. If however, the forces are balanced (in equilibrium) and there is no net force, the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant.

Answer:
0.687 m/s
Explanation:
Initial energy = final energy
1/2 mu² = mgh + 1/2 mv²
1/2 u² = gh + 1/2 v²
Given u = 2.00 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 0.180 m:
1/2 (2.00 m/s)² = (9.8 m/s²) (0.180 m) + 1/2 v²
v = 0.687 m/s
Answer:
Newton's Third Law of Motion
Explanation:
Newton's Third Law of Motion which states that, for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.
This ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.
In this scenario, a ball bounced by a basketball player on the floor bounces back up at her.
According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, the statement above simply means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects i.e the ball and floor. The size of the force on the ball equals the size of the force on the floor. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.
Hence, the ball bounced by the basketball player on the floor would bounce back in equal magnitude.
-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second. So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.
-- For sound, it's a different story. Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s. It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.
-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens. But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.
The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.
If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
(340 m/s) x (3 s) = 1,020 meters .
(about 0.63 of a mile)
(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...
It takes light 0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,
so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
