If the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 , then that means an object falling at 90° will be traveling 9.8 m/s after 1 second, 19.6 m/s after 2 seconds, and so on. Use the data values in your table to sketch a rough graph of velocity versus time for the 10° angle and another for the 40° angle. What value do the slopes of these graphs represent? Which graph has the greater slope? Why?

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.

You are driving directly behind a pickup truck, going at the same speed as the truck. a crate falls from the bed of the truck to the road. (a) will your car hit the crate before the crate hits the road if you neither brake nor swerve? (b) during the fall, is the horizontal speed of the crate more than, less than, or the same as that of the truck?

The period of a pendulum varies directly as the square root of the length of the pendulum and inversely as the square root of the acceleration due to gravity. find the period when the length is 144 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared, if the period is 7pi seconds when the length is 289 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared.
