The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by , where
here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving
Answer:
a) , b)
Explanation:
The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:
Where is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:
Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:
a) t = 50 s.
b) t = 100 s.
Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:
Since , then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:
