Two balls are thrown against a wall. Ball 1 has a much higher speed than ball 2.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Let both the balls have the same mass equals to m.

Let $v_1$ and $v_2$ be the speed of the ball1 and the ball2 respectively, such that

$v_1>v_2\;\cdots(i)$

Assuming that both the balls are at the same level with respect to the ground, so let h be the height from the ground.

The total energy of ball1= Kinetic energy of ball1 + Potential energy of ball1. The Kinetic energy of any object moving with speed, $v$ , is $\frac 12 m v^2$

and the potential energy is due to the change in height is $mgh$ [where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity]

So, the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_1^2 + mgh\;\cdots(ii)$

and the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_2^2 + mgh\;\cdots(iii)$ .

Here, the potential energy for both the balls are the same, but the kinetic energy of the ball1 is higher the ball2 as the ball1 have the higher speed, refer equation (i)

So, $\frac 12 m v_1^2 >\frac 12 m v_2^2$

Now, from equations (ii) and (iii)

The total energy of ball1 hi higher than the total energy of ball2.

You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 2.27 meters above the ground. later, an acorn f

Alexandra [31]

The acorn was at a height of <u>4.15 m</u> from the ground before it drops.

The acorn takes a time t to fall through a distance h₁, which is the length of the scale. When the acorn reaches the top of the scale, its velocity is u.

Calculate the speed of the acorn at the top of the scale, using the equation of motion,

$s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Since the acorn falls freely under gravity, its acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity g.

Substitute 2.27 m for s (=h₁), 0.301 s for t and 9.8 m/s² for a (=g).

$s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2\\ (2.27 m)=u(0.301s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^2)(0.301s)^2\\ u=\frac{1.8261m}{0.301s} =6.067m/s$

If the acorn starts from rest and reaches a speed of 6.067 m/s at the top of the scale, it would have fallen a distance h₂ to achieve this speed.

Use the equation of motion,

$v^2=u^2+2as$

Substitute 6.067 m/s for v, 0 m/s for u, 9.8 m/s² for a (=g) and h₂ for s.

$v^2=u^2+2as\\ (6.067m/s)^2=(0m/s)^2+2(9.8m/s^2)h_2\\ h_2=\frac{(6.067m/s)^2}{2(9.8m/s^2)} =1.878 m$

The height h above the ground at which the acorn was is given by,

$h=h_1+h_2=(2.27 m)+(1.878 m)=4.148 m$

The acorn was at a height <u>4.15m</u> from the ground before dropping down.

A flat sheet is in the shape of a rectangle with sides of lengths 0.400 m and 0.600 m. The sheet is immersed in a uniform electr

Katen [24]

Answer:

ФE = 9.403W

Explanation:

In order to calculate the magnitude of the electric flux trough the sheet, you use the following formula:

$\Phi_E=\vec{A}\cdot \vec{E}=AEcos\theta$ (1)

A: area of the rectangular sheet = (0.400m)(0.600m) = 0.24m^2

E: magnitude of the electric field = 95.0N/C

θ: angle between the direction of the electric field and the normal to the surface of the sheet

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

$\Phi_E=(0.24m^2)(95.0N/m)cos(20\°)=9.304W$

The magnitude of the electric flux is trough the sheet is 9.403W
