Why doesn't a steel ball have 5 times the acceleration of a plastic ball if the steel ball has 5 times the mass and weight of the plastic ball plus if gravity pulls 5 times harder on the steel ball?
We know that Force=mass*Accelaration Acceleration=Force/Mass So,Accelaration is inversely proportional to mass.i.e,if mass increases,acceleration decreases and vice versa . now coming to the present problem, steel ball has more mass than plastic ball so as described above steel ball has less acceleration than plastic ball.
If a ball rolls down a hill does its speed or acceleration increase?
The speed of the ball increases as it rolls down the hill due to the acceleration caused by gravity. The ball will accelerate at a constant rate as it moves downhill, increasing its speed until it reaches the bottom of the hill.
What happens to a ball thrown straight down from a bridge would have acceleration of?
The ball thrown straight down from a bridge will experience an acceleration due to gravity. On Earth, this acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s^2 and acts in the downward direction. The acceleration will cause the ball to increase in speed as it falls towards the ground.
What will happen to the balls velocity as it falls farther below the point of relase?
As the ball falls farther below the point of release, its velocity will increase. This is due to the acceleration caused by gravity pulling the ball downward. The acceleration will cause the ball to speed up as it falls.
When a ball increases in speed by the same amount each second its acceleration is?
When a ball increases in speed by the same amount each second, its acceleration is constant. This type of motion is known as constant acceleration.
When a ball is traveling at a constent speed around the inside of circular structure is the ball accerlerating?
Yes, acceleration is present. Acceleration is a change in speed and/or direction of motion. Even if speed is constant, acceleration is present if the path of the motion is anything but straight.
What is the speed and acceleration of a ball rolling down a hill?
The acceleration of a tennis ball rolling down an incline depends with two factors. The force that is applied to the tennis ball and the mass of the tennis ball will determine its acceleration.
WHEN A BALL IS DRoPPED FROM A height its speed increases why?
Acceleration due to the force of gravity.
In what ways is a bouncing ball accelerating?
-- On the way down, its speed is increasing, which is a change in velocity, i.e. an acceleration. -- At the bounce, its direction changes, which is a change in velocity, i.e. an acceleration. -- On the way up, its speed is decreasing, which is a change in velocity, i.e. an acceleration.
Does the speed of a ball increase or decrease after it hits the ground?
Once a ball has fallen a distance through the air, and it contacts the ground, its speed will rapidly decrease until it has stopped moving. The acceleration experienced by the ball is so great that it seems to stop instantly. Most likely, it will bounce back up, and then repeat this cycle a few times before coming to rest.
Why does a golf ball accelerates when either if speed or direction changes?
A change in speed or direction of a golf ball causes a net force to act on it. According to Newton's second law of motion, this net force results in an acceleration of the golf ball in the direction of the applied force. This acceleration causes the golf ball to speed up or change its direction.
If you double the force you throw a ball the acceleration will double?
No. For a start, you probably don't mean "acceleration" you probably mean "speed" or "velocity." There is a non-linear relationship between force applied on an object and the speed which it will travel through a medium (in this case, air). To double the speed, the amount of force required is more than double, since as the speed of the object increases, the frictional losses similarly increase. Since in this case, the ball will continue to slow immediately after release, the ball is experiencing "acceleration" with a negative value. A In case you are really asking about acceleration the answer is yes. If the ball, in your hand, starts from rest and is accelerated up to some velocity at which it leaves your hand then that acceleration will be double if you throw with twice the force. This will cause the ball to leave your hand with twice the velocity. Once it leaves your hand you are no longer exerting a force on it and the ball will be subject to air resistance which will affect its velocity as described above.
