Answer:

<u>Searching in google I found the total mass and the radius of the ball (m = 1.5 kg and r = 10 cm) which are needed to solve the problem!</u>

The ball rotates 6.78 revolutions.

Explanation:

<u>Searching in google I found the total mass and the radius of the ball (m = 1.5 kg and r = 10 cm) which are needed to solve the problem!</u>

At the bottom the ball has the following angular speed:

$\omega_{f} = \frac{v_{f}}{r} = \frac{4.9 m/s}{0.10 m} = 49 rad/s$

Now, we need to find the distance traveled by the ball (L) by using θ=28° and h(height) = 2 m:

$sin(\theta) = \frac{h}{L} \rightarrow L = \frac{h}{sin(\theta)} = \frac{2 m}{sin(28)} = 4.26 m$

To find the revolutions we need the time, which can be found using the following equation:

$v_{f} = v_{0} + at$

$t = \frac{v_{f} - v_{0}}{a}$ (1)

So first, we need to find the acceleration:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2aL \rightarrow a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2L}$ (2)

By entering equation (2) into (1) we have:

$t = \frac{v_{f} - v_{0}}{\frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2L}}$

Since it starts from rest (v₀ = 0):

$t = \frac{2L}{v_{f}} = \frac{2*4.26 m}{4.9 m/s} = 1.74 s$

Finally, we can find the revolutions:

$\theta_{f} = \frac{1}{2} \omega_{f}*t = \frac{1}{2}*49 rad/s*1.74 s = 42.63 rad*\frac{1 rev}{2\pi rad} = 6.78 rev$

Therefore, the ball rotates 6.78 revolutions.

I hope it helps you!

A 0.03 kg golf ball is hit off the tee at a speed of 34 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 0.003 s. What is the

Liula [17]

Answer:

The average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 0.03 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 34 m/s

Time of contact, $\Delta t=0.003\ s$

We need to find the average force on ball by the golf club. We know that the rate of change of momentum is equal to the net external force applied such that :

$F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv-mu}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.03\ kg\times 34\ m/s}{0.003\ s}\\\\F=340\ N$

So, the average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Naddika [18.5K]

<span>Nuclear energy is cleaner while generating electricity. Nuclear fission provides energy without releasing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. However, nuclear power plants generate significant amounts of radioactive waste. That is why we should not choose nuclear energy over fossil fuel power plants.</span>
