Answer:
False
Explanation:
The given statement "Two objects must be in contact for them to exert a force on each other" is not true as there are many types of forces that doesn't require being in contact for exerting a force.
One such example is the gravitational force acting between two bodies. Gravitational force is the force of pull with which a body pulls another body without being in contact.
For two bodies of masses 'M' and 'm' separated at a distance of 'R', the gravitational force is given as:
The gravitational force acts always act between bodies that have mass. The bodies are not in contact yet experience force.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
Answer:
a) 29.36 m
b) 2.44 s
c) 2.57 s
d) 25.117 m/s
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity = 24 m/s
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
b)
Time taken by the ball to reach the highest point is 2.44 seconds
a)
The highest point reached by the ball above its release point is 29.36 m
c) Total height is 3+29.35 = 32.35 m
The ball reaches the ground 2.57 seconds after reaching the highest point
d)
The ball will hit the ground at 25.2117 m/s
b) the net force on the car is zero.
Explanation:
Let's analyze each option one by one:
a) the force from the engine is greater than all the forces of friction. --> FALSE. In fact, the car is moving at constant velocity: this means that its acceleration is zero,
a = 0
and so Newton's second law becomes
where is the net force on the car and m is its mass. This means that the net force on the car is zero: so, the force from the engine cannot be greater than all the forces of friction, otherwise the net force cannot be zero.
b) the net force on the car is zero. --> TRUE, for what we said at point A)
c) the inertia is changing. --> FALSE. The inertia of an object just depend on the mass and the velocity of the object: as neither the mass nor the velocity are changing in this problem, then the inertia of the car is not changing.
d) the forces of friction are proportional to the acceleration of the car. --> FALSE. Generally, the force of friction acting on an object moving on a flat surface is
where is the coefficient of friction, m is the mass, and g the acceleration of gravity. Therefore, the force of friction does not depend on the acceleration of the car.
e) All of the above. --> FALSE
