A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}  

Where:

y_{0_{1}}: is the initial height = h

v_{0_{1}}: is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}     (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{0_{2}}: is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh

Since v_{f_{2}}^{2} = 0 at the maximum height (h):

v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

t = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2gh}} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

For ball 2:

y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!

26. Which of the following is NOT a result of the Earth's precession?
ExtremeBDS [4]

The Earth's axis' orientation in space gradually shifts due to the precession.

Precession is the name given to this motion, which is characterized by a cyclic wobble in the direction of the Earth's axis of rotation over a period of 25,772 years. The third motion of the Earth to be discovered, following the much more evident daily rotation and yearly revolution, is precession. The axial tilt of the Earth gradually changes over time as a result of precession. The points on the Earth's orbit where the equinoxes and solstices fall will shift over time. As a result, 13,000 years from now, the location of the summer solstice will change to that of the winter solstice. The Earth's axis changes its direction due to precession. In relation to the stars, the celestial poles steadily shift.

If the load on Pulley E is 20N, how much effort is needed to life it?
Mariana [72]
It would need to be over 20 because if the load of the Pulley E is 20 and the effort is 20, then they will be equal and the Pulley would not move, so your answer is at least 20
