(a) The ball will accelerate at a speed of 9.81 m/s² while it is in flight.

(b) The ball will be moving at a speed of 0 m/sec when it reaches its highest point.

(d) It will reach a maximum height of 21.0 m.

<h3 /><h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the change in distance with regard to time. A scalar quantity, speed. It is a temporal element, m/sec is its unit.

The information provided in the issue is;

u is the fall's beginning speed in m/sec;

h is the fall's distance

g is the fall's acceleration or 9.81 m/sec²

a. The ball's speed while in flight is equal to the acceleration caused by gravity, which is 9.81 m/s².

b. When the ball reaches its highest point, its velocity will be zero.

c. The ball's starting velocity is;

v=u-gt

0=u-gt

u=gt

u=9.81 m/s² × 2.07 sec

u=20.30 m/s

d. The formula is used to determine the highest height it can reach.

$\rm u^2 = - 2gh \\\\ (20.30)^2 = -2 \times (-9.8) \times h \\\\ 412.09 = 19.6 \times h\\\\ h = 412.09/19.6\\\\ h = 21.00 m$

As a result, the ball's greatest height, beginning velocity, and acceleration are all 9.81 meters per second, zero meters per second, 20.30 meters per second, and 21 meters accordingly.

Bruno the bat flies at a speed of 0.5 m/s in circle of radius 1 m. What is his acceleration?

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Acceleration is 0.25m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed = 0.5m/s

Radius(r) of circle = 1m

Acceleration round a circular path is given as :

a = v^2 / r

Where

a = acceleration of the body

v = speed / velocity

r = radius

Therefore,

a = v^2 / r

a = (0.5)^2 / 1

a = 0.25m/s^2

At a hot air balloon race, a person on the ground shots a ball of confetti from a cannon to start the race. One of the balloons

Sati [7]

Answer:

a) The balloon and the ball will meet after 1.43 s.

b) The ball will reach the balloon at 15.7 m above the ground.

Explanation:

The height of the confetti ball is given by the following equation:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height of the ball at time t

y0 = initial height

v0 = initial velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

The height of the ball is given by this equation:

y = y0 + v · t

Where v is the constant velocity.

When the ball and the ballon meet, both heights are equal. Let´s consider the ground as the origin of the frame of reference so that y0 = 0:

y balloon = y ball

y0 + v · t = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t² (y0 = 0)

11 m/s · t = 18 m/s · t -1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 18 m/s · t - 11 m/s · t

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 7 m/s · t

0 = t( -4.9 m/s² · t + 7 m/s)

t = 0 and

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t + 7 m/s

-7 m/s / - 4.9 m/s² = t

t = 1.43 s

They will meet after 1.43 s

b) Now let´s calculate the height of the balloon after 1.43 s

y = v · t

y = 11 m/s · 1.43 s = 15.7 m

The ball will reach the balloon at 15.7 m above the ground.

Ten identical steel wires have equal lengths L and equal "spring constants" k. The wires are connected end to end so that the re

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

$K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}$

Explanation:

When the springs are connected end to end, it means they are connected in series. When the springs are connected in series, the stress applied to the system gets applied to each of the springs without any change in magnitude while the strain of the system is the sum total of strains of each spring. The spring constant of the resultant system is given as,

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{n}})$

Here, n = 10

Spring constant of each spring = k

Thus,

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{K_{1}})+(\frac{1}{K_{2}})+(\frac{1}{K_{3}})+ (\frac{1}{K_{4}})+.....+(\frac{1}{K_{10}})$

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = (\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})+(\frac{1}{k})$

$\frac{1}{K_{system}} = \frac{10}{k}$

$K_{system} = \frac{k}{10}$
