Answer:

if an object is in free fall for a longer time its position will increase at an exponential rate because the object is accelerating

The place kicker on a football team kicks a ball from ground level with an initial speed of 4.00 m/s at an angle of 29.0° above
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

0.4 s

Explanation:

The time that the ball is in the air can be found with the next formula:

time = t = \frac{2v_{o}sen\beta}{g}

where v_{o} is the initial velocity of the ball, in this case:

v_{o}=4.00 m/s

β is the angle: β = 29.0°

And g is the acceleration of gravity: g=9.81m/s^2

Replacing all the values to find t, we have:

time = t = \frac{2(4m/s)sen(29)}{9.81m/s^2} = 0.4s

Thus, the ball is 0.4s in the air.

The gravitational constant G was first measured accurately by Henry Cavendish in 1798. He used an exquisitely sensitive balance
belka [17]

The gravitational force between the spheres is

F_{\rm g}=\dfrac{G(188\,\mathrm{kg})(0.93\,\mathrm{kg})}{(0.27\,\mathrm m)^2}\approx1.6\times10^{-7}\,\mathrm N

where <em>G</em> = 6.674 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg².

The weight of the lighter sphere is

F_{\rm w}=(0.93\,\mathrm{kg})g\approx9.1\,\mathrm N

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The ratio between the two forces is then

\dfrac{F_{\rm g}}{F_{\rm w}}\approx1.8\times10^{-8}

20 cubic inches of a gas with an absolute pressure of 5 psi is compressed until its pressure reaches 10 psi. What is the new vol
Alborosie
Initial volume of the gas (V1) = 10 inches^3
Initial pressure (P1) = 5 psi
Final pressure after compression of the gas (P1) = 10 psi
Let us assume the final volume of the gas (V2) = x
According to Boyle's Gas law, the pressure and volume of a gas remains constant under ideal condition. Then
P1V1= P2V2
5 * 10 = 10 * x
50 = 10x
x = 50/10
   = 5 cubic inches
So the volume of the gas after it was compressed was 5 cubic inches. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

You stand on a frictional platform that is rotating at 1.1 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you hold a heavy weight in eac
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

a) The resulting angular speed of platform is 1.38 rev/sec

b) The change in kinetic energy of the system is 53 J.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The complete question will be:

You stand on a frictional platform that is rotating at 1.1 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you hold a heavy weight in each hand. The moment of inertia of you, the extended weights, and the platform is 8.8 kg · m2. When you pull the weights in toward your body, the moment of inertia decreases to  7.0 k g .m 2  

a) What is the resulting angular speed of the platform? Answer in units of r e v / s .

b)What is the change in kinetic energy of the system? Answer in units of J.

<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

a)

we know that:

Angular Momentum = L = Iω

From conservation of momentum:

Lo = Lf

(Io) (ωo) = (If) (ωf)

ωf = (Io) (ωo)/(If)

ωf = (8.8 kg.m²)(1.1 rev/s)/(7.0 kg.m²)

<u>ωf = 1.38 rev/sec =</u>

b)

ωf = (1.38 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 8.67 rad/sec

ωo = (1.1 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 6.91 rad/sec

The kinetic energy for rotational motion is given as:

K.E = (1/2)Iω²

Thus, the change in kinetic energy will be:

ΔK.E = (K.E)f - (K.E)o

ΔK.E = (1/2)Ifωf² - (1/2)Ioωo²

ΔK.E = (1/2)(Ifωf² - Ioωo²)

ΔK.E = (1/2)[(7 kg.m²)(8.67 rad/sec)² - (8.8 kg.m²)(6.91 rad/sec)²

<u>ΔK.E = 53 J</u>
