A 12.0-g plastic ball is dropped from a height of 2.50 m. Just as it strikes the floor, it is moving at a speed of 3.20 m/s. How
nalin [4]

Answer:

0·233 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the ball = 0·012 kg

Initially the ball is at a height of 2·5 m

As initially the ball is dropped, it's initial velocity will be equal to 0

Therefore initially it has zero kinetic energy and has only potential energy

∴ Initially total mechanical energy of the ball = potential energy of the ball

Initial potential energy of the ball = m × g × h

where

m is the mass of the ball

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the ball

∴ Potential energy = 0·012 × 9·8 × 2·5 = 0·294 J

Velocity of the ball after striking the floor = 3·2 m/s

After striking the floor, the total mechanical energy = kinetic energy just after striking the floor

Kinetic energy = 0·5 × m × v²

where m is the mass of the ball

v is the velocity of the ball

∴ Kinetic energy of the ball = 0·5 × 0·012 × 3·2² = 0·061 J

Mechanical energy that is lost = 0·294 - 0·061 = 0·233 J

∴ Mechanical energy that the ball lost during its fall = 0·233 J

A 5.5kg radio is pushed across the table. If the acceleration is 5m/s to the right, find the net force exerted on the radio.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Net force exerted on the radio is 27.5 Newton.

Given:

Mass = 5.5 kg

Acceleration = 5 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

To find:

Force exerted on the radio = ?

Formula used:

F = ma

Where F = net force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion,

F = ma

Where F = net force

m = mass

a = acceleration

F = 5.5 × 5

F = 27.5 Newton

Hence, Net force exerted on the radio is 27.5 Newton.
