A soccer ball accelerates from rest and rolls 6.5m down a hill in 3.1 s. It then bumps into a tree. What is the speed of the ball just before it hits the tree.

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.096m/s

Explanation:

The speed of this soccer ball can be calculated using the formula;

Speed = distance/time

According to this question, the distance of the ball before it hits the tree is 6.5m, the time it takes is 3.1s, hence;

Speed = 6.5/3.1

Speed of the ball = 2.096m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball before hitting the tree is 2.096m/s
