You throw a ball downward from a window at a speed of 2.5 m/s. how fast will it be moving when it hits the sidewalk 2.1 m below?

1 answer:

4 0

List out all the variables that you do know;

acceleration=-9.8 ms⁻¹ (this remains constant on Earth)
Final velocity=?
Displacement (s)= -2.1 m
Initial Velocity(u)=2.5 ms⁻¹

v²=u²+2as
v²=(2.5)²+2(-9.8)(-2.1)
v²=47.41
v=√47.41
v=6.88549 ≈ 6.9 ms⁻¹

Hope I helped :)

At speeds over 30 mph, you should maintain a following distance of at least ________ behind the vehicle ahead of you.

ICE Princess25 [194]

At speeds over 30 mph, you should maintain a following distance of at least <u>three full seconds</u> behind the vehicle ahead of you.

As a general rule and common sense at a speed of 30 mph you can leave three full seconds so that you can achieve a prudent distance between the car you are driving and the car in front in order to be able to perform some kind of maneuver if an accident or unforeseen event occurs.

To count the full three seconds you can use the technique of counting the Mississippis as follows: Mississippi one, Mississippi two, Mississippi three.

Sphere A of mass 0.600 kg is initially moving to the right at 4.00 m/s. sphere B, of mass 1.80 kg is initially to the right of s

anzhelika [568]

A) The velocity of sphere A after the collision is 1.00 m/s to the right

B) The collision is elastic

C) The velocity of sphere C is 2.68 m/s at a direction of $-5.2^{\circ}$

D) The impulse exerted on C is 4.29 kg m/s at a direction of $-5.2^{\circ}$

E) The collision is inelastic

F) The velocity of the center of mass of the system is 4.00 m/s to the right

Explanation:

We can solve this part by using the principle of conservation of momentum. The total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision:

$p_i = p_f\\m_A u_A + m_B u_B = m_A v_A + m_B v_B$

$m_A = 0.600 kg$ is the mass of sphere A

$u_A = 4.00 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the sphere A (taking the right as positive direction)

$v_A$ is the final velocity of sphere A

$m_B = 1.80 kg$ is the mass of sphere B

$u_B = 2.00 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the sphere B

$v_B = 3.00 m/s$ is the final velocity of the sphere B

Solving for vA:

$v_A = \frac{m_A u_A + m_B u_B - m_B v_B}{m_A}=\frac{(0.600)(4.00)+(1.80)(2.00)-(1.80)(3.00)}{0.600}=1.00 m/s$

The sign is positive, so the direction is to the right.

To verify if the collision is elastic, we have to check if the total kinetic energy is conserved or not.

Before the collision:

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}m_A u_A^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_B u_B^2 =\frac{1}{2}(0.600)(4.00)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(1.80)(2.00)^2=8.4 J$

After the collision:

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}m_A v_A^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_B v_B^2 = \frac{1}{2}(0.600)(1.00)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(1.80)(3.00)^2=8.4 J$

The total kinetic energy is conserved: therefore, the collision is elastic.

Now we analyze the collision between sphere B and C. Again, we apply the law of conservation of momentum, but in two dimensions: so, the total momentum must be conserved both on the x- and on the y- direction.

Taking the initial direction of sphere B as positive x-direction, the total momentum before the collision along the x-axis is:

$p_x = m_B v_B = (1.80)(3.00)=5.40 kg m/s$

While the total momentum along the y-axis is zero:

$p_y = 0$

We can now write the equations of conservation of momentum along the two directions as follows:

$p_x = p'_{Bx} + p'_{Cx}\\0 = p'_{By} + p'_{Cy}$ (1)

We also know the components of the momentum of B after the collision:

$p'_{Bx}=(1.20)(cos 19)=1.13 kg m/s\\p'_{By}=(1.20)(sin 19)=0.39 kg m/s$

So substituting into (1), we find the components of the momentum of C after the collision:

$p'_{Cx}=p_B - p'_{Bx}=5.40 - 1.13=4.27 kg m/s\\p'_{Cy}=p_C - p'_{Cy}=0-0.39 = -0.39 kg m/s$

So the magnitude of the momentum of C is

$p'_C = \sqrt{p_{Cx}^2+p_{Cy}^2}=\sqrt{4.27^2+(-0.39)^2}=4.29 kg m/s$

Dividing by the mass of C (1.60 kg), we find the magnitude of the velocity:

$v_c = \frac{p_C}{m_C}=\frac{4.29}{1.60}=2.68 m/s$

And the direction is

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{p_y}{p_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-0.39}{4.27})=-5.2^{\circ}$

The impulse imparted by B to C is equal to the change in momentum of C.

The initial momentum of C is zero, since it was at rest:

$p_C = 0$

While the final momentum is:

$p'_C = 4.29 kg m/s$

So the magnitude of the impulse exerted on C is

$I=p'_C - p_C = 4.29 - 0 = 4.29 kg m/s$

And the direction is the angle between the direction of the final momentum and the direction of the initial momentum: since the initial momentum is zero, the angle is simply equal to the angle of the final momentum, therefore $-5.2^{\circ}$ .

To check if the collision is elastic, we have to check if the total kinetic energy is conserved or not.

The total kinetic energy before the collision is just the kinetic energy of B, since C was at rest:

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}m_B u_B^2 = \frac{1}{2}(1.80)(3.00)^2=8.1 J$

The total kinetic energy after the collision is the sum of the kinetic energies of B and C:

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}m_B v_B^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_C v_C^2 = \frac{1}{2}(1.80)(1.20)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(1.60)(2.68)^2=7.0 J$

Since the total kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is inelastic.

Here we notice that the system is isolated: so there are no external forces acting on the system, and this means the system has no acceleration, according to Newton's second law:

$F=Ma$

Since F = 0, then a = 0, and so the center of mass of the system moves at constant velocity.

Therefore, the centre of mass after the 2nd collision must be equal to the velocity of the centre of mass before the 1st collision: which is the velocity of the sphere A before the 1st collision (because the other 2 spheres were at rest), so it is simply 4.00 m/s to the right.

A charge of -5.02 nC is uniformly distributed on a thin square sheet of nonconducting material of edge length 21.8 cm. "What is

Maru [420]

Answer:

A charge of -5.02 nC is uniformly distributed on a thin square sheet of nonconducting material of edge length 21.8 cm. "What is the surface charge density of the sheet"?

Explanation:

Surface charge density is a measure of how much electric charge is accumulated over a surface. It can be calculated as the charge per unit area.

We will convert all parameters in SI units.

Charge = Q = -5.02nC

Q = -5.02× $10^{-9}$ C
