A bowler throws a bowling ball of radius R = 11.0 cm down the lane with initial speed = 8.50 m/s. The ball is thrown in such a w
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

a) 1.18 seconds

b) 8.6 m

c) 5.19 revolutions

d) 6.07 m/s

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

radius of the ball = 11.0 cm

Initial speed of the ball = 8.50 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and the lane is 0.210.

<em></em>

<em>(a) For what length of time does the ball skid?</em>

The velocity at time t can be written as v(t) = v0 + at

 ⇒ with v(t) = the velocity at time t

⇒ with v0 : the initial velocity = 8.50 m/s

⇒ with a = the acceleration (in m/s²)

   ⇒The acceleration (negative) due to friction: a = -µg

           ⇒ with µ = 0.210

          ⇒ with g = 9.81 m/s²

v(t) =8.5m/s - 0.21*9.81m/s² * t = 8.5 - 2.06t

Torque τ = Iα = (2m(0.11m)²/5)α = 0.00484m*α

τ = F * r = µm*g*R = 0.21 * M * 9.81m/s² * 0.11m = 0.227m

so α = 0.227m / 0.00484m = 46.9 rad/s²

angular velocity ω(t) = ωo + αt = 0 + 46.9 rad/s² * t

The ball stops sliding when v(t) = ω(t) * r

8.5 - 2.06t  = 46.9*0.11*t = 5.159t

7.219t = 8.5

<u>t = 1.18 seconds</u>

<em>b) How far down the lane does it skid?</em>

s = Vo*t + ½at² = 8.5m/s * 1.18s - ½* 2.06 m/s² * (1.18s)² = <u>8.6 m</u>

<em>c) How many revolutions does it make before it starts to roll?</em>

The angular acceleration of the ball is:

α =  τ/I

 ⇒ with  τ = the torque experienced by the ball due the frictional force

   ⇒  τ = fk*R

α = fk*R /I

 ⇒ I = 2/5 m*R²

 ⇒ fk = µk*m*g

α = (µk*m*g*R)/(2/5mR²)

α = 5µk*g /2R

The angular displacement of the ball is:

∅ = 1/2αt²

⇒ The ball does not have an initial angular velocity

∅ =1/2*(5µk*g/2)*t²

∅ = 5µkgt²/4R

∅ = (5*0.21*9.81*1.18²)/(4*11.0 *10^-2)

∅ = 32.6 rad

Number of revolutions = 32.6 rad /2π

<u>Number of revolutions = 5.19</u>

<em>(d) How fast is it moving when it starts to roll?</em>

v = Vo + at = 8.5m/s - 2.06m/s² * 1.18s = <u>6.07 m/s</u>

Juri is tugging her wagon behind her on the way to... wherever her wagon needs to go. The wagon repair shop. She has a trek ahea
vitfil [10]

Answer:

W = 819152 J = 819.15 KJ

Explanation:

The work done by Juri can be given by the following formula:

W = FdCos\theta

where,

W = Work done = ?

F = Force = 200 N

d = distance = 5 km = 5000 m

θ = angle to horizontal = 35°

Therefore,

W = (200 N)(5000 m)Cos 35°

<u>W = 819152 J = 819.15 KJ</u>

A hot air balloon of total mass M (including passengers and luggage) is moving with a downward acceleration of magnitude a. As i
frez [133]

Answer:

When balloon moves in the downward direction two forces acts on it.  

    i) Force exerted by air in the upward direction  

    ii) Weight  

According to newton’s second law of motion:  

      Sum of forces = Ma  

                W – F = Ma  

               Mg – F = Ma     …….. (i)  

when some of the mass m is dropped and balloon is moving in upward direction with acceleration a/2 then,  

               F – W = (M-m)a/2

               F – (M-m)g = (M-m)a/2

               F – Mg + mg = Ma/2 – ma/2 ….. (ii)  

Adding equation (i) and (ii)  

              mg = M(3a/2) – ma/2

              m(g + a/2) = M(3a/2)

              m = M(3a/2)/(g + a/2)

In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.20 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, b
GaryK [48]

Answer:

x_2 = 648.46\ m

Explanation:

given,

Average velocity due west =  1.20 m/s

case 1

Distance moved in west, x₁ = 5.63 km

speed due west, v₁ = 2.33 m/s

Case 2

Distance moved in east = x₂

speed due east, v₂ = 0.374 m/s

total distance = x₁ + x₂ = 5.62

total time = t₁ + t₂ = 5630/2.33 + x₂/0.374

now,

average\ velocity = \dfrac{total\ distance}{total\ time}

-1.20= \dfrac{-5630 + x_2}{\dfrac{5630}{2.33}+\dfrac{x_2}{0.374}}

negative sign is used because we want the distance in east but velocity is in west.

- 2900 - 3.21 x_2 = -5630 + x_2

-4.21 x_2 = -2730

x_2 = 648.46\ m

The distance she walked in east is equal to 648.46 m
