A ball rolls of a desk a speed of 3.0m/s and lands 0.40 seconds later

Physics

a) The horizontal distance covered by the ball is 1.2 m

b) The height of the desk is 0.784 m

c) The speed at the time of impact is 4.9 m/s

Explanation:

a)

We have to calculate how far from the base of the desk the ball lands, that is the horizontal distance covered by the ball during its motion.

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion and consists of two independent motions:

- A horizontal uniform motion at constant velocity, since no forces act along the horizontal direction

- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground, due to the force of gravity

In this part we are only interested in the horizontal motion. The horizontal velocity of the ball is constant and it is

v_x = 3.0 m/s

And the time of flight is

t = 0.40 s

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered is

d=v_x t = (3.0)(0.40)=1.2 m

b)

To find the height of the desk, we have to consider the vertical motion, which is a uniformly accelerated motion. Therefore, we can use the following suvat equation:

s=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where:

s is the vertical displacement (= the height of the desk)

u_y=0 is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t = 0.40 s is the time of flight

Substituting,

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.40)^2=0.784 m

c)

To find the speed of the ball at the impact, we have to calculate both the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity at the time of impact.

We already said that the horizontal component is constant:

v_x = 3.0 m/s

While the vertical component is given by

v_y = u_y + at

where

u_y = 0\\a=g=9.8 m/s^2\\t=0.40 s

So

v_y = 0+(9.8)(0.40)=3.9 m/s

So, the speed of the ball at the time of impact is:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(3.0)^2+(3.9)^2}=4.9 m/s

During a football game, the running back changes direction from running 4.5 m/s [N] to 4.5 m/s [S] over 8 s. What is the acceler
Nimfa-mama [501]

Explanation:

Take north to be positive and south to be negative.

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (-4.5 m/s − 4.5 m/s) / 8 s

a = -1.125 m/s²

The acceleration is 1.125 m/s² south.

Dallas says that any change in velocity is directly proportional tothe time interval over which the change took place. Dana says
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

e. Only(a) and (b) above are correct

Explanation:

Impulse

= Fx t = m ( v-u )

v-u = change in velocity

F x t = mass x change in velocity

change in velocity = F t / mass

=a t

change in velocity ∝ t ( time ) , if a is constant

dv = a_avg  dt

∫dv = a_avg ∫dt

v-u = a_avg t

change in velocity ∝ t ( time )

So both (a) and (b) are correct.
