A 2 kg rubber ball is thrown at a wall horizontally at 3 m/s, and bounces back the way it came at an equal speed. A 2 kg clay ba

ll is also thrown at the same speed horizontally at the wall, but sticks to it upon hitting. [THE CLAY BALL / THE RUBBER BALL /NEITHER] (circle one) exerts a greater magnitude of impulse on the wall. Briefly explain (either in words or calculations)

Answer:

THE RUBBER BALL

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of the rubber ball is m_r   =  2 \ kg

      The  initial  speed of the rubber ball is  u =  3 \ m/s

      The final speed at which it bounces bank v  - 3 \ m/s

      The mass of the clay ball  is  m_c =  2  \ kg

       The  initial  speed of the clay  ball is u = 3 \ m/s

       The final speed of the clay ball is  v = 0 \  m/s

Generally Impulse is mathematically represented as

       I  =  \Delta p

where \Delta  p is the change in the linear momentum so  

       I  =  m(v-u)

For the rubber  is  

        I_r  =  2(-3 -3)

       I_r  = -12\ kg \cdot  m/s

=>     |I_r|  = 12\ kg \cdot  m/s

For the clay ball

       I_c  =  2(0-3)

        I_c =  -6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s

=>    | I_c| =  6 \ kg\cdot \ m/s

So from the above calculation the ball with the a higher magnitude of impulse is the rubber ball

Suppose astronomers built a 150-meter telescope. how much greater would its light-collecting area be than that of the 10-meter k
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Almost all telescopes have a circular mirror. The area of a circle is proportional to r^2 where r is the radius of the circle, the constant of proportionality being 4\pi
S =4\pi r^2
Therefore the area of 150 meter telescope would be 
S_1/S_2=(r_1/r_2)^2 =(75/5)^2 =15^2=225
times bigger than the area of the smaller (10 meter) telescope.

Quinn accelerates her skateboard along a straight path from 0 m/s to 4.0 m/s
umka2103 [35]
  • initial velocity=u=0m/s
  • Final velocity=v=4m/s
  • Time=t=2.5s

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{4-0}{2.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{4}{2.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=1.6m/s^2

A hungry rat is placed in a maze. It walks the following path to find a piece of cheese. 4.0m N, 7.5 m E, 6.8 m S, 3.7 m E, 3.6
storchak [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall take the help of vector form of displacement . Taking east as i and north as j

4.0m N = 4 j

7.5 m E = 7.5 i

6.8 m S = - 6.8 j

3.7 m E, = 3.7 i

3.6 m S = - 3.6 j

5.3 m W = - 5.3 i

3.7 m N, = 3.7 j

5.6 m W = - 5.6 i

4.4 m S = - 4.4 j

4.9 m W = -  4.9 i

Total displacement = 4j +7.5 i -6.8j+3.7i-3.6j-5.3i+3.7j-5.6i-4.4j-4.9i

= -4.6 i -7.1 j

magnitude of displacement = \sqrt{(4.6^2+7.1^2)}

= 8.46 m

Direction

Tanθ = 7.1/ 4.6

θ = 57⁰ south of west .

distance walked = 4+7.5 +6.8+3.7+3.6+5.3+3.7+5.6+4.4+4.9

= 49.5 m
