Physics

Answer:

a) v₀ = 15.3 m/s

b) h = 11.9 m

Explanation:

Ball Kinematics

We apply the free fall formulas:

vf= v₀+at Formula (1)

vf²=v₀²+2*a*y Formula (2)

y= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (3)

y:displacement in meters (m)  

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

f: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²  

Data

t= 3.13 s

a=g= -9.8 m/s² = acceleration due to gravity

Problem development

a)With what speed did he throw it

  • t= 3.13 s : total ball time going up and down
  • The time the ball rises to its maximum height is half the total time
  • At maximum height vf = 0

We apply the formula (1) for calculate initial speed (v₀)

vf= v₀+at

0=  v₀+(-9.8)*(3.13/2)

v₀= 15.3 m/s

b)What height did it reach?

We apply formula (2) or formula (3)

vf²=v₀²+2*a*h formula (2)

0 = v₀² +2*(-9.8)*h

19.6*h =  v₀²

h=v₀²/19.6

h= (15.3)²/(19.6 )

h= 11.9m

y= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (3)

h= (15.3)(3.13/2)+(1/2)(-9.8)(3.13/2)²= 11.9m

Two billiard balls with the same mass undergo a perfectly elastic head-on collision. if one ball's initial speed was 2 m/s, and
My name is Ann [436]
<span>The ball with an initial velocity of 2 m/s rebounds at 3.6 m/s
 The ball with an initial velocity of 3.6 m/s rebounds at 2 m/s

   There are two principles involved here
 Conservation of momentum and conservation of energy.
  I'll use the following variables
 a0, a1 = velocity of ball a (before and after collision)
  b0, b1 = velocity of ball b (before and after collision)
 m = mass of each ball.

   For conservation of momentum, we can create this equation:
 m*a0 + m*b0 = m*a1 + m*b1
 divide both sides by m and we get:  
a0 + b0 = a1 + b1

   For conservation of energy, we can create this equation:
 0.5m(a0)^2 + 0.5m(b0)^2 = 0.5m(a1)^2 + 0.5m(b1)^2
 Once again, divide both sides by 0.5m to simplify
 a0^2 + b0^2 = a1^2 + b1^2

   Now let's get rid of a0 and b0 by assigned their initial values. a0 will be 2, and b0 will be -3.6 since it's moving in the opposite direction.
 a0 + b0 = a1 + b1
 2 - 3.6 = a1 + b1
 -1.6 = a1 + b1
 a1 + b1 = -1.6

   a0^2 + b0^2 = a1^2 + b1^2
 2^2 + -3.6^2 = a1^2 + b1^2
 4 + 12.96 = a1^2 + b1^2
 16.96 = a1^2 + b1^2
 a1^2 + b1^2 = 16.96

   The equation a1^2 + b1^2 = 16.96 describes a circle centered at the origin with a radius of sqrt(16.96). The equation a1 + b1 = -1.6 describes a line with slope -1 that intersects the circle at two points. Those points being (a1,b1) = (-3.6, 2) or (2, -3.6). This is not a surprise given the conservation of energy and momentum. We can't use the solution of (2, -3.6) since those were the initial values and that would imply the 2 billiard balls passing through each other which is physically impossible. So the correct solution is (-3.6, 2) which indicates that the ball going 2 m/s initially rebounds in the opposite direction at 3.6 m/s and the ball originally going 3.6 m/s rebounds in the opposite direction at 2 m/s.</span>

• A cable is suspended over a pulley. A 5.0 kg mass is attached to
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Tension= \frac{20g}{3}  (g=acceleration of gravity)

Explanation:

Given that,

A 5Kg and 10Kg are attached by a cable suspended over a pulley.

As 10Kg > 5Kg , the 10 kg mass accelerates down and the 5kg mass accelerates up, let it be a. Let the tension in the cable be T.

So, the equations of motion are

10g-T = 10a

T-5g=5a

Now adding them we get,

5g=15a

a=\frac{g}{3}

Substituting them back in the equation we get,

10g-10(\frac{g}{3} ) = T

T= \frac{20g}{3}

The Lamborghini Huracan has an initial acceleration of 0.75g. Its mass, with a driver, is 1510 kg.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

11109.825 N

Explanation:

Given Data:

total mass =m=1510 kg

initial acceleration (a) =0.75g                  ( g=9.81 m/s² )

F=ma

  = (1510)*( 0.75*9.81)

  = 11109.825 N

Neptune is approximately 4.5 billion kilometers from the sun. What is this distance in AU?
asambeis [7]
Well, one AU is 149,597,870 km. So, we would basically have to divide 4.5 billion km by 149,597,870, right?

4,500,000,000/149,597,870=30.080642 AU.

So, the correct answer would be 30 AU. Hoped this helped!

Why is it that the two possible faults with inductors are short circuit and open circuit?
lukranit [14]
These are the most common type of faults not just inductors but also with other elements too like resistors,transformers, generators etc.
open circuit fault means the flow of current is disrupted some how in the circuit and the circuit stops operating. and for short circuit fault the current in the system will be pretty high and this short circuit current or fault current will always run back to the fault location, if the inductor got short circuited somehow then the fault current will only run through it because it will then provide a very low impedence path
