A 10-kg rock and 20-kg rock are dropped from the same height and experience no significant air resistance. if it takes the 20-kg

<span>Mass of rock 1 is m1 = 10 kg Mass of rock 2 is m2 = 20 kg 10-kg rock takes T (the same time ) to reach the ground as similar to 20-kg rock that takes time T to reach the ground. If no air resistance is present, the rate of descent depends only on how far the object has fallen, no matter how heavy the object is. This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. This statement follows from the law of conservation of energy and has been demonstrated experimentally by dropping a feather and a lead ball in an airless tube. When air resistance plays a role, the shape of the object becomes important. THUS 10-KG & 20-KG ROCK reaches the ground in T-time</span>

A baseball of mass m = 0.31 kg is spun vertically on a massless string of length L = 0.51m. The string can only support a tensio
natulia [17]

Given data:

* The mass of the baseball is 0.31 kg.

* The length of the string is 0.51 m.

* The maximum tension in the string is 7.5 N.

Solution:

The centripetal force acting on the ball at the top of the loop is,

\begin{gathered} T+mg=\frac{mv^2}{L}_{} \\ v^2=\frac{L(T+mg)}{m} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{L(T+mg)}{m}} \end{gathered}

For the maximum velocity of the ball at the top of the vertical circular motion,

v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{L(T_{\max }+mg)}{m}}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity,

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.51(7.5_{}+0.31\times9.8)}{0.31}} \\ v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.51(10.538)}{0.31}} \\ v_{\max }=\sqrt[]{17.34} \\ v_{\max }=4.16\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the maximum speed of the ball at the top of the vertical circular motion is 4.16 meters per second.

If the distance d (in meters) traveled by an object in time t (in seconds) is given by the formula d = A + Bt^2, the SI units of
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The SI units of the “A” is m (meters)

The SI units of the “B” is m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the distance = d meters.

Time taken to travel = t (seconds)

Function of the distance, d = A + Bt^2

Now we have given the above information and from the given distance function, we have to find the SI units of the A and B. Here, below are the SI units.

Thus, the SI units of the “A” is = m (meters)

The SI units of the “B” is = m/s^2
