<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Position A: Maximum potential and minimum kinetic energy

Position B: losing potential and gaining kinetic

Position C: Maximum kinetic and minimum potential energy.

Position D: is losing kinetic and gaining potential

Position E: Maximum potential and minimum kinetic energy.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Position A is a point of maximum potential energy and minimum kinetic energy since it is the highest point of the pendulum.
Position B, which is half way between A and C, the ball is losing potential energy and gaining kinetic energy. This occurs as the ball descends from the highest position to the lower position thus looses potential energy and gains kinetic energy.
Position C is the point of maximum kinetic energy and minimum potential energy. Because this is the lowest point of the pendulum and a point where the ball has maximum velocity.
At position D which is half way between C and E, the potential energy is increasing as the kinetic energy is decreasing. At this point the ball has half of its maximum potential energy.
At position E, he potential energy of the pendulum reaches its maximum value and is neither increasing nor decreasing at that point.

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of kinematic equations of motion and the work done by a body.

In the case of work, we know that it is defined by,

$W = F * d$

Where,

F= Force

d = Distance

The distance in this case is a composition between number of steps and the height. Then,

$d=h*N$ , for h as the height of each step and N number of steps.

On the other hand we have the speed changes, depending on the displacement and acceleration (omitting time)

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

Where,

$V_f =$ Final velocity

$V_i =$ Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

$\Delta X =$ Displacement

PART A) For the particular case of work we know then that,

$W = F*d$

$W = m*g*(h*N)$

$W = 50*9.8*(0.3*30)$

$W = 4.41kJ$

Therefore the Work to do that activity is 4.41kJ

PART B) To find the acceleration (from which we can later find the time) we start from the previously given equation,

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

Here,

$V_i = \frac{0.3*3}{1} = 0.90m/s\rightarrow$ 3 steps in one second

$v_f = 0$

Replacing,

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

$0-0.9^2=2a(30*0.3)$

Re-arrange for a,

$a = -\frac{0.9^2}{2*30*0.3}$

$a = -45*10^{-3}m/s^2$

At this point we can calculate the time, which is,

$t = \frac{\Delta V}{a}$

$t = \frac{0-0.9}{-45*10^{-3}}$

$t = 20s$

With time and work we can finally calculate the power

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{4.41}{20}

P = 0.2205kW

A soccer player carries the ball for a distance of 40.0 m in the direction 42.0° west of south. find the westward component of t

Maksim231197 [3]

Actually what the problem meant about the westward component of the ball’s displacement is the horizontal component of the displacement. To help us better understand the problem, I attached a figure of the situation.

We can see from the figure that to solve for the value of the horizontal component, we have to make use of the sin function. That is:

sin θ = side opposite to the angle / hypotenuse of the triangle

sin 42 = x / 40 m

x = (40 m) sin 42

x = 26.77 m

Therefore the ball has a westward displacement of about 26.77 m

As a glacier melts, the volume V of the ice, measured in cubic kilometers, decreases at a rate modeled by the differential equat

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

the volume in terms of time t ⇒ $\\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\$

Explanation:

Given that :

$\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\\int\limits \, \frac{dv}{v}= \int\limits \, kdt\\In v = kt + C_1\\v = e^{kt} + C\\400 = e^{k*0} + C\\400 = 1 + C\\C = 400 -1\\C = 399$

$V = e^{kt} + 399$

When v = 300 ; $\frac{dv}{dt}= - 15$

then

$\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\-15 = 300*k\\\\k = \frac{-15}{300}\\\\\\k = \frac{-1}{20}\\\\k = -0.05$

∴ $\\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\$

Therefore, the volume in terms of time t ⇒ $\\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\$
