Ball A is dropped from the top of a building of height h at the same instant that ball B is thrown vertically upward from the gr

ound. When the balls collide, they are moving n opposite directions, and the speed of A is twice the speed of B. At what height does the collision occur? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.) Both balls experience constant acceleration once they are �n flight. Choose a coordinate system with the origin at the ground and the upward direction positive. When the balls collide they are at the same height above the ground.

Answer:

2h / 3

Explanation:

Let after time t , collision occurs

distance covered by A

= 1/2gt²

Let u be the initial velocity with which B was thrown upwards

distance by B

= ut - 1/2 gt²

total distance by A and B

h = ut - 1/2 gt² +  1/2gt²

h = ut

t = h / u

velocity of A after t

= gt

= g x h/u

velocity of B after t

= u - gt

= u - g x h/u

given

g x h/u = 2 (u - g x h/u)

2u² - 2gh = gh

u = \sqrt{\frac{3gh}{2} }

t = h / u

= \sqrt{\frac{2h}{3g} }

Distance covered by A

= 1/2 gt²

= 1/2 x 2h/3

= h/3

Height at which collision occured

= h - h/3

= 2h /3

A particle moving on a circle has a velocity of 5 m/s and a normal acceleration of 10 m/s^2. What is the radius of the circle?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Radius of the circle will be 2.5 m

Explanation:

We have given velocity of particle moving in the circle v = 5 m/sec

Acceleration of particle in the circle a=10m/sec^2

We have to find the radius of the circle

We know that acceleration is given by a=\frac{v^2}{r}

So 10=\frac{5^2}{r}

r=\frac{25}{10}=2.5m

So radius of the circle will be 2.5 m

Define the law of universal gravitation in your own words.
Firdavs [7]
Newton's law of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers
