A ball is released from stationary at a great height. Explain how the forces acting on it change before it hits the ground and how these forces affect the velocity of the ball.

The initial velocity of the ball is 0, and so the only relevant force acting on it is weight pulling it downwards, so, the ball accelerates towards the ground. As the ball falls it hits air particles whic...

How does the strong nuclear force between two nucleons varies with separation of the nucleons. Please detail the range over which the force acts.

The strong nuclear force is a fundamental force that binds quarks together to form nucleons. The force between nucleons is repulsive between similar nucleons (i.e. protons) before becoming attractive and ...

find and symplify the following. Integrate ( 2x^5 - 1/(4x^3)- 5 )dx

first the second term can be split up to make integrating it easierits easier if the x3 component is separatedthis eventually simplifies the second term to (-1/4) * x-3so now the que...

a ball is dropped from rest off a cliff of height 50m, determine the final velocity of the ball assuming no air resistance.

Consider the appropriate equation of motion to solve this (use SUVAT method). The equation v^2=u^2+2as is appropriate to solve. Substituting in the knowns gives v=+sqrt(29.8150)=31.32 wh...
