A professional golfer hits a golf ball of mass 46 g with her 5-iron, and the ball first strikes the ground 155 m away. The ball

experiences a drag force of magnitude Fr = Cv^2 and has a terminal speed of 44.0 m/s. Calculate the drag constant C for the golf ball.

Answer:

C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 46 g = 0.046 kg

Terminal speed of the ball, v = 44 m/s

The drag force, F_r=Cv^2

Where, C is the drag coefficient. At terminal speed, the weight of the ball is balanced by the drag force.

Cv^2=mg

C=\dfrac{mg}{v^2}

C=\dfrac{0.046\times 9.8}{(44)^2}

C=2.32\times 10^{-4}\ Ns^2/m^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 7.0 kg bowling ball has a moment of inertia of 2.8x10-2 kg m2, and a radius of 0.10 m. If it rolls down the lane at an angular
slega [8]

Hi there!

Angular momentum is equivalent to:

\large\boxed{L = I\omega}

L = angular momentum (kgm²/s)

I = moment of inertia (kgm²)

ω = angular velocity (rad/sec)

Plug in the given values for moment of inertia and angular speed:

L = (0.028)(40) = \boxed{1.12 kgm^2/s}

A pendulum has 895 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
LuckyWell [14K]

Newton's law of conservation states that energy of an isolated system  remains a constant. It can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed  from one form to the other.

Implying the above law of conservation of energy in the case of pendulum we can conclude that at the bottom of the swing the entire potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Also the potential energy is zero at this point.

Mathematically also potential energy is represented as

Potential energy= mgh

Where m is the mass of the pendulum.

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height from the bottom z the ground.

At the bottom of the swing,the height is zero, hence the potential energy is also zero.

The kinetic energy is represented mathematically as

Kinetic energy= 1/2 mv^2

Where m is the mass of the pendulum

v is the velocity of the pendulum

At the bottom the pendulum has the maximum velocity. Hence the kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom.

Also as it has been mentioned energy can neither be created nor destroyed hence the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and would be equivalent to 895 J.

Pls answer need help
igomit [66]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Find the NET forces on the objects

A  20==>

B    0

C  30==>

D  15==>    

So biggest accel = C because it has the most force acting on it

 next is A because it has the next biggest force

    next is  D        then    B ...B has no net force acting on it
