When a ball is thrown straight up the velocity at its highest point is?
zero
(c) At the highest point in its motion, the ball’s velocity is zero.
Where will the velocity be 0 when a ball is thrown straight up into the air?
When an object is thrown upwards, it is constantly being accelerated downward under the influence of gravity. The acceleration is termed as acceleration due to gravity. The object reaches its maximum height, where its instantaneous velocity becomes zero, after which the object falls back to the ground.
When an object is thrown upward its velocity is zero at the highest point?
Question: A ball thrown vertically upward reaches a maximum height of 30 meters above the surface of Earth. At its maximum height, the speed of the ball is: Answer: 0 m/s. The instantaneous speed of any projectile at its maximum height is zero….Objects Launched Upward.
| Variable | Value |
|---|---|
| v | 0 m/s |
| Δy | FIND |
| a | -9.8 m/s2 |
| t | 0.40 s |
Is a ball at its highest point in equilibrium?
No, the ball is not in an equilibrium. As you can see, it will fall under gravity and not stay in the air.
When a ball is thrown straight up the acceleration is upward?
The ball’s acceleration is the same throughout the throw (It is 9.8 m/s2 toward the earth). The direction of the ball’s motion is upward, and doesn’t change. The speed of the ball will decrease as it goes higher.
When a ball is thrown straight up at the top of its path its acceleration is?
As I throw a ball straight up into the air, the direction of the ball’s motion is initially upward, although it is actually traveling downward at 9.8 m/s squared. At the very top of a ball’s motion, its speed is zero and its acceleration is -9.8 meters per second squared.
When a ball is tossed straight up it will momentarily have a speed of zero at the peak of its flight but it will still be experiencing the acceleration of Earth’s gravity?
The force acts to continuously accelerate the ball downwards. Because it starts off with a velocity upwards this will be reduced because of this force. At some point it will be zero as the velocity reverses sign, but there is no equilibrium as you can prove by the fact it continues to accelerate downwards.
What happens when a ball is thrown vertically upward?
Critical Thinking When a ball is thrown vertically upward, it continues upward until it reaches a certain position, and then it falls downward. At that highest point, its velocity is instantaneously zero. What is the acceleration at the top of a jump?
What is the initial velocity of the ball at maximum altitude?
In order for the ball to move upwards its initial velocity must be greater than zero. As the ball rises, its velocity decreases until it reaches its maximum height, where it stops, and then begins to fall. As the ball falls, its speed increases. Therefore, at maximum altitude the velocity of the ball must be zero.
What happens when a ball reaches its highest point?
What happens when a ball reaches its highest point? In order for the ball to move upwards its initial velocity must be greater than zero. As the ball rises, its velocity decreases until it reaches its maximum height, where it stops, and then begins to fall. As the ball falls, its speed increases.
When is a ball not in equilibrium with you?
Once the ball leaves the person’s hand, it is never in equilibrium until it lands on the ground or the person catches it again. In particular, it is definitely not in equilibrium when it reaches the top of its path, where the velocity is momentarily zero.
