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 sinusoidal sound wave moves through a medium and is described by the displacement wave function
labwork [276]

By applying the wave equation we know that the displacement on the y-axis is 1.999 micrometers.

We need to know about wave equations to solve this problem. The displacement of the wave on the y-axis can be explained by the wave equation

y = A cos (kx - ωt)

where y is y-axis displacement, A is amplitude, k is wave number, x is x-axis displacement, ω is angular speed and t is time.

the wavenumber and angular speed of the wave equation can be determined respectively by

k = 2π / λ

ω = 2πf

where k is the wavenumber, λ is wavelength and f is frequency.

From the question above, we know that:

y = 2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)

(x in meters, t in second, y in micrometers)

x = 0.05 m

t = 3 ms

Convert time to second

t = 3ms = 0.003 s

By applying the wave equation, we get

y = 2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)

y = 2.00cos (15.7(0.05) - 858(0.003))

y  = 2 cos(-1.789)

y = 1.999 micrometers

How is reflection of light used in research
mel-nik [20]

In order to read the publications of his peers, or read his own notes of the work
that he did on the previous day, or find his coffee mug on his desk in the lab, the
research scientist must arrange to have each of them illuminated with visible
wavelengths of light, and then he must catch the light reflected from each of them
with his eyes.

a high speed train travels with an average speed of 250 km/h. the train travels for 2 hrs. how far does the train travel
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 500 km </h3>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>distance = average velocity × time</h3>

From the question

average speed = 250 km/h

time = 2 hrs

We have

distance = 250 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>500 km</h3>

Hope this helps you

A batter hits a baseball with a bat. The bat exerts a force on the ball. Does the ball exert a force on the bat?
Mazyrski [523]
Yes, think about the difference of swinging a bat and not hitting a ball. It's fairly easy right? Now, when you hit a ball with the bat, you will feel the bat sting your hands. That's the force the ball is exerting on the bat!
