A 26 foot ladder is lowered down a vertical wall at a rate of 3 feet per minute. The base of the ladder is sliding away from the

lakkis [162]

Answer:

(i) 7.2 feet per minute.

(ii) No, the rate would be different.

(iii) The rate would be always positive.

(iv) the resultant change would be constant.

(v) 0 feet per min

Explanation:

Let the length of ladder is l, x be the height of the top of the ladder from the ground and y be the length of the bottom of the ladder from the wall,

By making the diagram of this situation,

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

$l^2 = x^2 + y^2-----(1)$

Differentiating with respect to t ( time ),

$0=2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}$ ( l = 26 feet = constant )

$\implies 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = -2x\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{x}{y}\frac{dx}{dt}$

We have,

$y = 10, \frac{dx}{dt}= -3\text{ feet per min}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3x}{10}-----(X)$

(i) From equation (1),

$26^2 = x^2 + 10^2$

$676=x^2 + 100$

$576 = x^2$

$\implies x = 24\text{ feet}$

From equation (X),

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3\times 24}{10}=7.2\text{ feet per min}$

(ii) From equation (X),

$\frac{dy}{dt}\propto x$

Thus, for different value of x the value of $\frac{dy}{dt}$ would be different.

(iii) Since, distance = Positive number,

So, the value of y will always a positive number.

Thus, from equation (X),

The rate would always be a positive.

(iv) The length of the ladder is constant, so, the resultant change would be constant.

i.e. x = increases ⇒ y = decreases

y = decreases ⇒ y = increases

(v) if ladder hit the ground x = 0,

So, from equation (X),

$\frac{dy}{dt}=0\text{ feet per min}$

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 11 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed

shusha [124]

Answer:

- 3.72 Ns.

9.44 m/s

Explanation:

mass of racket, M = 1000 g = 1 kg

mass of ball, m = 60 g = 0.06 kg

initial velocity of racket, U = 11 m/s

initial velocity of ball, u = 18 m/s

final velocity of ball, v = - 44 m/s

Let the final velocity of the racket is V.

(a) Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity of the ball.

initial momentum of the ball = m x u = 0.06 x 18 = 1.08 Ns

Final momentum of the ball = m x v = 0.06 x (- 44) = - 2.64 Ns

Change in momentum of the ball = final momentum - initial momentum

= - 2.64 - 1.08 = - 3.72 Ns

Thus, the change in momentum of the ball is - 3.72 Ns.

(b) By use of conservation of momentum

initial momentum of racket and ball = final momentum of racket and ball

1 x 11 + 0.06 x 18 = 1 x V - 0.06 x 44

12.08 = V - 2.64

V = 9.44 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the racket afetr the impact is 9.44 m/s .
