While in a car at 4.47 meters per second a passenger drops a ball from a height of 0.70 meters above the top of a bucket how far

viktelen [127]

Answer:

1.7 m

Explanation:

$v_x$ = Velocity of ball in x direction = 4.47 m/s

$u_y$ = Velocity of ball in y direction = 0

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

t = Time taken

$s_y$ = Vertical displacement = 0.7 m

$s_y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\Rightarrow 0.7=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.7\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.38\ \text{s}$

Horizontal displacement is given by

$s_x=v_xt\\\Rightarrow s_x=4.47\times 0.38\\\Rightarrow s_x=1.7\ \text{m}$

The passenger should throw the ball 1.7 m in front of the bucket.

Question 6. B) and c)

maks197457 [2]

The formula for both is v(t) = v0 + a*t

b) v(8) = 0 + 6m/s^2 *8s = 48 m/s

now we know the beginning (2) and end speed (14), but not the time:

c) 14 = 2 + 1.5*t => t = (14-2)/1.5 = 8 seconds

9.58 A spring of equilibrium length L1 and spring constant k1 hangs from the ceiling. Mass m1 is suspended from its lower end. T

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The distance of m2 from the ceiling is L1 +L2 + m1g/k1 + m2g/k1 + m2g/k2.

See attachment below for full solution

Explanation:

This is so because the the attached mass m1 on the spring causes the first spring to stretch by a distance of m1g/k1 (hookes law). This plus the equilibrium lengtb of the spring gives the position of the mass m1 from the ceiling. The second mass mass m2 causes both springs 1 and 2 to stretch by an amout proportional to its weight just like above. The respective stretchings are m2g/k1 for spring 1 and m2g/k2 for spring 2. These plus the position of m1 and the equilibrium length of spring 2 L2 gives the distance of L2 from the ceiling.
