Answer:

B. Gravitational force

Explanation:

The gravitational force of an object (also called weight) is given by

F=mg

where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration of gravity, and it always points in the downward direction.

In this problem, the arrow labelled with 4 is the only force pointing downward: therefore, it must be the gravitational force.

The other arrows represent:

1 --> component of the gravitational force parallel to the plane

2 --> force of friction

3 --> component of the gravitational force perpendicular to the plane

A billiard ball is dropped from a height of 64 feet. Use the position function s(t) = –16???? 2 + ????0???? + ????0 to answer th
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

s(t) = -16*t^2 + 64

v(t) = -32*t

a(t) = -32 ft/s^2

v(t) = 64 ft/s ... At impact

Explanation:

Given:-

- The height of the billiard ball t = 0 , h = 64 ft.

- The position function of an object under gravity is given by:

                                    s(t) = -16*t^2 + v_o*t + s_o

Find:-

a. Determine the position function s(t),

b. the velocity function v(t),

c. the acceleration function a(t).

d. What is the velocity of the ball at impact?

Solution:-

- To determine the position function we must initialize our problem and use the given general equation.

- s(t) is the position of the billiard ball from the ground at time t. So when t = 0, then s(t) = h. Hence, we have:

                                  s(t) = s_o = h = 64 ft

- Similarly we know that v_o is the initial velocity of the ball. Since, the ball was dropped we say that the initial velocity v_o = 0. Hence, the position of the ball from ground is given by following expression:

                                  s(t) = -16*t^2 + 64  

- To find the velocity expression v(t) we will take the time derivative of the position expression s(t) as follows:

                                  v(t) = d s(t) / dt

                                  v(t) = -16*2*t + 0

                                  v(t) = -32*t ft/s

- Similarly, the expression for acceleration a(t) is given by the time derivative of the velocity expression v(t) as follows:

                                  a(t) = d v(t) / dt

                                  a(t) = -32*t

                                  a(t) = -32 ft/s^2

- The velocity of ball at impact can be determined by evaluating s(t) = 0 and find the value for time t. Then that time t can be substituted in the velocity expression v(t) for final velocity. Or we could use the following 3rd kinematic equation as follows:

                                 v(t)^2 - 0^2 = 2*a(t)*s_o

                                 v(t)^2 = 2*(32)*(64)

                                 v(t) = 64 ft/s

- The ball has a velocity of 64 ft/s at impact!

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

<em>The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m</em>

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of  spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the  force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^{2}

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/s^{2} x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈  0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m

A carpenter on the roof of a building accidentally drops herhammer. As the hammer falls it passes two windows of equal height,a)
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) the speed increment of the hammer as it drops past the first window, is greater than that of the speed of the hammer as it drops past the second window. This can also be translated as saying that the hammer spent more time at the second window.

b) III

The best answer would be answer III, The hammer spends more time dropping past window 1, which I had already included in my explanation in (a) above.

a bird flies 25.0 m in the direction 55° east of south to its nest. the bird then flies 75.0 m in the direction 55° west of nort
son4ous [18]

The northward components of the resultant displacement is 40.96 m and the westward components of the resultant displacement of the bird from its nest is 28.68 m.

<h3>Displacement of the bird</h3>

The displacement of the bird is the change in the position of the bird.

<h3>Vertical component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vy₁ = -25 m  x   sin(55)

Vy₁ = -20.48 m

Vy₂ = 75 m   x    sin(55)

Vy₂ = 61.44 m

Total vertical displacement = 61.44 m - 20.48 m = 40.96 m

<h3>Horizontal component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vx₁ = -25 m  x   cos(55)

Vx₁ = -14.34 m

Vx₂ = 75 m   x    cos(55)

Vx₂ = 43.02 m

Total horizontal displacement = 43.02 m - 14.34 m = 28.68 m
