Describe the motion of a ball in a typical sport?
Since a ball is a sphere the motion it makes is rolling. The rolling happens on the ground and in the air.
3 ways to accelerate?
To change the acceleration of a car: speed up, slow down or turn. Acceleration is any change in velocity. Velocity is "how fast" and in "what direction". To speed up is to accelerate (increase the velocity). To slow down is to deaccelerate (decrease the velocity) To turn is also a form of acceleration (changes the direction of the velocity).
Why does the force of gravity do no work on a bowling ball rolling down a bowling alley?
Work is definied in Physics as the Force acting on an object times the distance the object is moved by that Force, or W = fd Since Force is mass times acceleration (F=ma), and because the ball is on a surface that is perpendicular to the force exerted by gravity, there is no gravitational acceleration (a), hence no Force, so no Work is done by gravity.
When a broom falls does it accelerate or decelerate?
The falling motion of the broom is the acceleration of the broom The broom hitting the floor and slowing down is the deceleration of the broom. Remember, acceleration is the speeding up and deceleration is the slowing down (De is the Latin root meaning down, so down in speed/ decreasing in speed...)
Why is the ball deccelerating on an inclined plane?
The acceleration due to gravity remains constant, regardless of incline. The fact that it is on an incline does not change the fact that it will remain constant, it will only change the component of that acceleration being applied to the ball.
Is a ball rolling an example of acceleration?
Not necessarily. If it's rolling in a straight line on a smooth and level floor, then the acceleration is as good as zero. But if the ball is rolling up a hill, or down a hill, or around the groove in a roulette wheel, or through grass and slowing down, then there's substantial acceleration.
What did Galileo discover about the amount of speed a ball gained each second when rolling down an inclined plane?
Galileo discovered that the speed gained by a ball rolling down an inclined plane is constant and increases linearly with time. This led to the development of the concept of acceleration, where an object's speed changes at a constant rate over time.
What happens to the velocity of a ball that is rolling down a hill?
The velocity of a ball rolling down a hill will increase due to the acceleration caused by the pull of gravity. As the ball gains speed, its velocity will continue to increase until it reaches the bottom of the hill.
Which will have the greater acceleration rolling down an incline plane a large ball or a small ball?
If they are both solid, and the incline is the same, the rate of acceleration will be the same.
What happens to the speed and acceleration of a ball rolling down an irregular slope?
The speed of the ball will change as it rolls down an irregular slope due to the varying slope angles and surface conditions affecting its motion. The acceleration of the ball will also change accordingly as it encounters different levels of resistance and gravitational forces from the irregular slope.
Which will have the greater acceleration rolling down an incline plane- a large ball or a small ball?
The small ball will have a greater acceleration rolling down an incline plane because it has less mass and experiences less inertia. This means that the force of gravity can accelerate the small ball more easily than the large ball.
A ball rolling down an incline has its minimum speed?
The minimum speed of a ball rolling down an incline occurs when all its initial potential energy at the top of the incline is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom, without any loss to friction or other factors. This minimum speed can be calculated using the principle of conservation of energy.
Does the speed of a ball rolling down a ramp change with the kind of surfacce on which the ball is rolling?
Yes, the speed of a ball rolling down a ramp can change with the type of surface it is rolling on due to factors such as friction. A smoother surface will likely have less friction, allowing the ball to roll faster, while a rough surface will create more friction, slowing the ball down.
When A ball rolls down a slope ramp the acceleration is?
The acceleration of a ball rolling down a slope ramp is due to gravity pulling it downwards. The acceleration is equal to the gravitational acceleration (9.81 m/s^2) multiplied by the sine of the angle of the slope.
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.
How does the angle of a slope affect the speed of a ball rolling down hill?
The steeper the slope (greater angle), the faster the ball will roll downhill due to the increased gravitational force acting on it. This increased force results in a greater acceleration, causing the ball to gain speed more quickly.
Is there a relationship between the mas of a moving ball and its speed while rolling down an inclined plane?
Mass does not affect the acceleration of an object due to gravity. Any object of any size or mass will fall at the same speed. A ball rolling down an inclined plane is accelerated by gravity, so its speed won't be affected by its mass at all.
