A tennis ball is hit into the air with a racket. When is the ball’s kinetic energy the greatest? Ignore air resistance.

Answer B is the correct answer

We know that kinetic energy  E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass of object and v is the velocity of object.

In this case only velocity is the variable, mass remains constant.

So point having higher velocity has higher kinetic energy.

When it leaves the racket, the ball will be having a certain height, but just before it reaches the ground it will not having any height. So maximum velocity of ball is at that time when  it reaches just above the ground.

So  option B is the correct answer.

Large electric fields in cell membranes cause ions to move through the cell wall. The field strength in a typical membrane is 1.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1.6\cdot 10^{-12}N

Explanation:

The electric force on a charged particle is given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge of the particle

E is the strength of the electric field

In this problem, we have

E=1.0\cdot 10^7 N/C is the electric field strength

q=+e=+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the charge of the calcium ion

Therefore, the electric force exerted on the calcium ion is

F=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)(1.0\cdot 10^7 N/C)=1.6\cdot 10^{-12}N

You are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball. The soccer ball
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The building is 61.19 m tall, approximately.

Explanation:

From the parabollic movement trayectory equation,

y=H+\frac{v_{0y}}{v_x}x-\frac{1}{2v_x^2}gx^2,

where H is the initial height of the ball and v_{oy} and v_x the inital velocities in the vertical and horizontal direction, respectively; we have

H=y-\frac{v_{0y}}{v_x}x+\frac{1}{2v_x^2}gx^2.

In this case, the ball landed at the coordinates \left(x,y\right)=\left(61,0\right), so

H=0-\frac{17\sin\left(43\deg\right)}{17\cos\left(43\deg\right)}\times 61+\frac{1}{2\left(17\cos\left(43\deg\right)\right)^2}\times 9.81\times 61^2 \approx 61.19.

A ball is thrown eastward into the air from the origin (in the direction of the positive x-axis). The initial velocity is 50 i +
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The ball lands 154.3 ft from the origin at an angle of 13.6° from the eastern direction toward the south.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The position vector of the ball is described by the following equation:

r = (x0 + v0x · t + 1/2 · ax · t², y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · ay · t², z0 + v0z · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

r =  poisition vector of the ball at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity (eastward).

t = time.

ax = horizontal acceleration (eastward).

y0 = initial horizontal position.

v0y = initial horizontal velocity (southward).

ay = horizontal acceleration (southward)

z0 = initial vertical position.

v0z = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

We have to find at which time the vertical component of the position vector is zero (the ball is on the ground) and then we can calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the ball at that time, using the equations of the horizontal components of the position vector.

Let´s place the origin of the system of reference at the throwing point so that x0 and y0 and z0 = 0.

y =  z0 + v0z · t + 1/2 · g · t²            (z0 = 0)

0 = 48 ft/s · t - 1/2 · 32 ft/s² · t²

0 = t (48 ft/s - 16 ft / s² · t)                 (t= 0, the origin point)

0 = 48 ft/s - 16 ft / s² · t

- 48 ft/s / -16 f/s² = t

t = 3.0 s

Now, we can calculate how much distance the ball traveled in that time.

First, let´s calculate the distance traveled in the eastward direction:

x = x0 + v0x · t + 1/2 · ax · t²              (x0 = 0, ax = 0 there is no eastward acceleration)

x = 50 ft/s · 3 s

x = 150 ft

And now let´s calculate the distance traveled in southward direction:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · ay · t²   (y0 = 0 and v0y = 0, initially, the ball does not have a southward velocity).

y =  1/2 · ay · t²

y = 1/2 · (-8 ft/s²) · (3 s)²

y = -36 ft

Then, the final position vector will be:

r = (150 ft, -36 ft, 0)

The traveled distance is the magnitude of the position vector:

|r| = \sqrt{(150ft)^{2} + (-36ft)^{2}} = 154.3 ft

To calculate the angle, we have to use trigonometry (see attached figure):

cos angle  = adjacent side / hypotenuse

cos α = x/r

cos α = 150 ft / 154.3 ft

α = 13.6°

The ball lands 154.3 ft from the origin at an angle of 13.5° from the eastern direction toward the south.
