Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.
Answer:
0.011 m.
Explanation:
Energy stored in the spring = Energy of the projectile.
1/2ke² = mgh ................ Equation 1
Where k = spring constant, e = extension or compression, m = mass of the projectile, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.
make e the subject of the equation
e = √(2mgh/k)............................. Equation 2
Given: k = 12 N/cm = 1200 N/m, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg, h = 5.0 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 2
e = √(2×0.015×5/1200)
e = √(0.15/1200)
e = √(0.000125)
e = 0.011 m.
Answer:
Explanation:
Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.
Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:
Where 
is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when 
is equal to one, solving for r:
