Suppose our experimenter repeats his experiment on a planet more massive than Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is g

= 30 m/s². When he releases the ball from chin height without giving it a push, how will the ball's behavior differ from its behavior on Earth? Ignore friction and air resistance.
(Select all that apply.)
a. It will take more time to return to the point from which it was released.
b. It will smash his face.
c. Its mass will be greater.
d. It will take less time to return to the point from which it was released.
e. It will stop well short of his face.

Answer: a) It will take more time to return to the point from which it was released

Explanation: To determine how long it takes for the ball to return to the point of release and considering it is a free fall system, we can use the given formula:

d=v_{0}.t + \frac{1}{2} .a.t^{2}, where:

d is the distance the ball go through;

v₀ is the initial velocity, which is this case is 0 because he releases the ball;

a is acceleration due to gravity;

t is the time necessary for the fall;

Suppose <em>h</em> is the height from where the ball was dropped.

On Earth:

h=0.t + \frac{1}{2}.10.t^{2}

h = 5t²

t_{T} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{5} }

On the other planet:

h =  0.t + \frac{1}{2}.30.t^{2}

h = 15.t²

t_{P} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{15} }

Comparing the 2 planets:

\frac{t_{T} }{t_{P} } = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{h}{5} } }\sqrt{{\frac{h}{15} } }

\frac{t_{T} }{t_{P} } = \sqrt{3}  or t_{T} = \sqrt{3}.t_{P}

Comparing the two planets, on the massive planet, it will take more time to fall the height than on Earth. In consequence, it will take more time to return to the initial point, when it was released.

a body of a mass 1kg suspended from a spring is found to stretch the spring by 10cm. (A) what is the spring constant? what is pe
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

(A) The spring constant is <u>98 N/m.</u>

(B) The period of oscillation is <u>0.635 s.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the body is, m=1\ kg

Extension length of the spring is, x=10\ cm=0.1\ m

Now, let 'k' be the spring constant.

The force acting on the body is due to gravity only and is equal to its weight.

So, weight of the body is given as:

F_g=mg\\F_g=1\times 9.8\\F_g=9.8\ N

Now, we know that for a spring-mass system, the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of the spring constant and extension length. Therefore,

F_g=kx\\9.8=k(0.1)\\k=\frac{9.8}{0.1}=98\ N/m

Hence, the spring constant is 98 N/m.

(B)

Period of oscillation of a body of spring-mass system in SHM is given as:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

Plug in the given values and solve for period 'T'. This gives,

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{1}{98}}\\T=2\pi\times 0.101\\T=0.635\ s

Therefore, the period of oscillation is 0.635 s.

kozerog [31]

Random variable

Explanation:

A function that assigns a numerical value to each outcome of an experiment is described as a random variable. Random variables helps to determine the outcome of a random event.

  • Example of a random event is tossing of die, casting of a coin.
  • Random variables ascribe numerical values to the outcome of an experiment.
  • They are often used in probability to determine the extent of the certainty of an experimental procedure.
