Two children each have one balls. One child drops the ball and the other throws the ball with an initial speed of 10 meters per second. What is the acceleration of each ball while in motion?
Show the work please.Physics Question. What is the acceleration of each ball while in motion?The first one is easier than the second.
the acceleration is 9.81m/s^2 down for the first one.
The second one assumes I hope that 10 m/s is going straight out from its release point. In that case the vertical acceleration is still 9.81 down. The horizontal is 0 if there is no increase in speed (or decrease either.Physics Question. What is the acceleration of each ball while in motion?The answer is g downward for both.
The only significant force acting upon a free projectile is gravity, and gravity's force per unit mass is g, and the net force per unit mass, equal to acceleration, is also g.Physics Question. What is the acceleration of each ball while in motion?No computation needed.
As soon as a ball leaves either child's hand it is under the acceleration of gravity alone toward the center of the earth.
