Question

When Jim lifts a (previously stationary) bowling ball using a constant 72 N (↑) Force, it rises 1.0 m in 3.0 s.

a) compute the ball’s acceleration.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the formula :

`s = ut + (1)/(2) at {}^(2)`

where;

S = distance

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

a = acceleration

Plug in all the information we have,

`1 = 0 + (1)/(2) a(3) {}^(2)`

therefore :

`a = (2)/(9) ms {}^( - 2)`
