A person standing on the roof of a building throws a rubber ball down with a velocity of 8?
The ball will accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2 due to gravity. As the ball falls, its velocity will increase, reaching a maximum at the point of impact with the ground. The rubber ball will bounce back up after hitting the ground but not to the same height as it was initially thrown from.

What 2 factors can cause a change in velocity?
Velocity is said to have changed when either the speed or the direction of motion changes. There are myriads of things that can cause it, including jets, rubber bands, gravity, and friction.
The rubber soles of shoes or rubber tires on a car will protect you from being struck by lighting?
Rubber is a poor conductor of electricity, so wearing rubber-soled shoes or sitting in a car with rubber tires can help protect you from being struck by lightning. The rubber provides insulation, reducing the risk of electric shock in case of a lightning strike. However, it's still safest to stay indoors during a lightning storm.
What are two reasons why a rock projected with a slingshot will go faster if the rubber is streched an extra distance?
Stretching the rubber band further increases the potential energy stored in it, which is converted into kinetic energy upon release, propelling the rock faster. Additionally, the increased tension in the rubber band allows for a greater force to be applied to the rock, resulting in a higher initial velocity.
While standing still throw a small rubber ball straight up about2 or 3m highdoes land in your hand?
No, the small rubber ball will not land back in your hand while standing still. After being thrown up, the ball will follow a parabolic trajectory and fall back down due to gravity. The position of your hand will remain stationary unless you move it to catch the ball.
Do you performing dolphin speed through the water and hit a rubber ball originally at rest describe what happens to the velocity of the dolphin and the ball?
When the dolphin hits the ball, the dolphin's velocity will decrease due to the impact, while the ball's velocity will increase as it gains momentum from the force of the dolphin. This follows the principle of conservation of momentum, where the total momentum of the system (dolphin and ball) remains constant.
Why is a standing broad jump mat made of rubber?
As rubber produces lots of friction, when we jump and land on the rubber mat, it will prevent us from slipping.
How fast do rubber balls go if they fall off a tower?
It depends on the height of the tower and the terminal velocity of the specific rubber ball. Many objects with a specific gravity near 1 have a terminal velocity of about 120 miles per hour.
How does rubber moorings in a building help minimize damage during an earthquake?
Because rubber is flexible - so it absorbs a lot of the motion of the earth during a quake. Rubber moorings act as a kind of barrier between the building and the earth.
Why doesnt a bird standing on a high voltage wire get electrocuted?
The wires are coated in rubber.
How do you buy rubber wood?
You can buy rubber wood by shopping at your local home supply store. Home Depot and Lowe's both offer forms of rubber wood mulch and rubber wood for building.
What are the materials used in building an alarm clock?
rubber plastic meatl
How does a rubber structure beneath a building prevent it from being damaged?
A rubber structure beneath a building can help absorb and dissipate vibrations and shocks caused by seismic activity or ground movement. This can help reduce the impact of these forces on the building, decreasing the likelihood of damage. Additionally, the flexibility of the rubber material can allow for some degree of movement without transferring as much stress to the building above.
Your car shakes when it's standing still or in reverse what can be your problem?
The engine mount (which are made of rubber) are worn out.
How does a rubber structure beneath a building prevent from being damaged?
absorb vibration
If rubber from worn out tires is left on the road shouldn't you be standing hip deep in rubber by now?
Tire rubber is mostly left behind as fine particles - rubber dust, if you will. This rubber dust doesn't just sit on the road; it is blown off by wind or washed of by rain, and it ends up in the environment. >>M.T.<<
First to add rubber to pencil?
The first person to put rubber on a pencil was Harret Tubbmien.
What do you call a person who studies rubber?
A vulcanologist.
