3. A horizontally moving tennis ball barely clears the net, a distance y above the surface of the court. To land within the tenn

is court the ball must not be moving too fast.
a. To remain within the court’s border, a horizontal distance d from the bottom of the net, show that the ball’s maximum speed over the net is v = / √ 2
b. Suppose the height of the net is 1.00 m, and the court’s border is 12.0 m from the bottom of the net. Use g = 10 m/s2 and show that the maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s (about 60 mi/h).
c. Does the mass of the ball make a difference? Defend your answer.

(a) The ball’s maximum speed over the net is v(max) = √2gh.

(b) The maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s.

(c) Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time of motion of the ball is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

1 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1 = 4.9t²

t² = 1/4.9

t² = 0.204

t = 0.452 s

<h3>Horizontal speed of the ball</h3>

The horizontal speed of the ball is calculated as follows;

X = vt

v = X/t

v = (12 m)/(0.452)

v = 26.6 m/s ≈ 27 m/s  (proved)

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

2gh = v²

√2gh = v(max)

Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.

A computer is connected across a 110 V power supply. The computer dissipates 123 W of power in the form of electromagnetic radia
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

81.3ohms

Explanation:

Resistance is known to provide opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit.

Power dissipated by the computer is expressed as;

Power = current (I) × Voltage(V)

P = IV... (1)

Note that from ohms law, V = IR

I = V/R ... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1, we will have;

P = (V/R)×V

P = V²/R.. (3)

Given source voltage = 100V, Power dissipated = 123W

To get resistance R of the computer, we will substitute the given value into equation 3 to have

123 = 100²/R

R = 100²/123

R = 10,000/123

R = 81.3ohms

The resistance of the computer is 81.3ohms

Which experiment has a non-uniform probability model? Select two answers. A. Tossing a fair coin one time B. Randomly guessing t
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

C and D

Explanation:

A uniform probability model is a probabilistic model characterized by a uniform probability density function, or uniform distribution.

In common language, a uniform probability distribution means that all possible outcomes in the probability space have the same probability of occurrence.

So:

- A fair toss of coin every possible outcome (H,T) has probability 0.5. It is modeled by by a uniform discrete distribution.

- Randomly selected answer to an MCQ with four options would have probability of success 0.25 for every MCQ. It is modeled by by a uniform discrete distribution.  

- Spinning a spinner with sections that are different sizes, each section would have different probabilities proportional to the coverage area on the. It is modeled by a non-uniform discrete distribution

- Pulling a red marble out of a bag with 6 red marbles, 3 green marbles, and 1 yellow marble. Each successive time a red marble is drawn the probability decreases. Hence, non uniform distribution.

- Spinning a spinner on which all sections are the same size. Each section would have similar probabilities proportional to the coverage area on the. It is modeled by a uniform discrete distribution .
