Answer:

The impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to 0.133 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 14 g = 0.014 kg

It is dropped from a height of 1.5 m and it only bounces back to a height of 0.85 m. The conservation of energy is applied here.

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

If h = 1.5 m

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v_1=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.5}

v_1=5.42\ m/s

If h = 0.85 m

v_2=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.85}

v_2=-4.08\ m/s (as the ball bounces back so it is negative)

The impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to the change in momentum of the ball as :

J=m(v_2-v_1)

J=0.014\times (-4.08-5.42)

J = -0.133 kg-m/s

So, the impulse on the ball when it hit the floor is equal to 0.133 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

<span>Remember that  impulse = change in momentum 

this means we compute the momentum of the ball just before impression and just after; we know the mass, so we find the speeds 

the ball falls for 1.5m and will achieve a speed given by energy conservation: 

1/2 mv^2 = mgh => v=sqrt[2gh]=5.42m/s 

since it rises only to 0.85 m, we compute the initial speed after power from the same equation and get 
v(after)=sqrt[2*9.81m/s/s*0.85m] = 4.0837 m... 

now, recall that momentum is a vector, so that the momentum down has one sign and the momentum up has a positive sign, so we have 

impulse = delta (mv) = m delta v = 0.014 kx (4.08m/s - (-5.42m/s) = 0.133 kgm/s </span>

A factory worker pushes a 32.0 kg crate a distance of 7.0 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizontally on
g100num [7]

Answer:

(a) 81.54 N

(b) 570.75 J

(c) - 570.75 J

(d) 0 J, 0 J

(e) 0 J  

Explanation:

mass of crate, m = 32 kg

distance, s = 7 m

coefficient of friction = 0.26

(a) As it is moving with constant velocity so the force applied is equal to the friction force.

F = 0.26 x m x g = 0.26 x 32 x 9.8 = 81.54 N

(b) The work done on the crate

W = F x s = 81.54 x 7 = 570.75 J

(c) Work done by the friction

W' = - W = - 570.75 J

(d) Work done by the normal force

W'' = m g cos 90 = 0 J

Work done by the gravity

Wg = m g cos 90 = 0 J

(e) The total work done is

Wnet = W + W' + W'' + Wg = 570.75 - 570.75 + 0 = 0 J

Even in the most advanced circuits, we cannot oscillate electrons back and forth at that rate through wires. But we can oscillat
den301095 [7]

Answer:

the oscillations of the electrons must be in the 10⁸ Hz = 100 MHz range

Explanation:

The speed of a wave of radio, television, light, heat, all are manifestations of electromagnetic waves that are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that support each other, the speed of all these waves is the same and the vacuum is equal to c = 3 108 m / s

All waves have a relationship between the speed of the wave, its frequency and wavelength

          c = λ f

          f = c /λ

for this case lam = 1 m

          f = 3 10⁸/1

          f = 3 10⁸ Hz

the oscillations of the electrons must be in the MHz range

It should be clarified that the speed of light in air is a little lower

          n = c / v

          v = c / n

the refractive index of vacuum is n = 1 and the refractive index of air is n = 1.000002

A bus moving along a level road increases its speed from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 15.0s. What is the car's acceleration?​
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

initial velocity U = 20m/s

Final velocity V = 35m/s

time = 15.0 secs

change in velocity = 35 - 15

= 20m/s

acceleration a = change in velocity/time V/t

a = (35-20)/15

a= 15/15

Hence, your acceleration is 1m/s^2

Refractive index of water is 1.3. calculate the speed of light in water.​
wolverine [178]

Answer:

The speed of light is faster in water. The Refractive index of water is 1.3 and the refractive index of glass is 1.5. From the equation n = c/v, we know that the refractive index of a medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of light in that medium. Hence, light travels faster in water.
