A 10.0kg water balloon is dropped from a height of 12.0m. Calculate the speed of the balloon just before it hits the ground

Physics

kolbaska11 [484]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

15.5 m/s.

Explanation:

Potential energy of the balloon has been converted to kinetic energy.

potential energy = kinetic energy.

mgh = ½mv².

10* 10* 12= ½ *10 *v²

1200 = 5v²

v²=1200÷5

v=√240

v= 15.49~15.5 m/s.

Alice and Tom dive from an overhang into the lake below. Tom simply drops straight down from the edge, but Alice takes a running
crimeas [40]

Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

Alice launches with horizontal velocity u=25\ m/s

Tom simply drops straight down from the edge

Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.

Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.

Thus option c is correct

A particle of mass m collides with a second particle of mass m. Before the collision, the first particle is moving in the x-dire
oee [108]

Answer:

a) v, v

b) 2mv^2

c) Elastic collion

Explanation:

(a) The velocity of the second particle after the collision is (v2x,v2y)=(v,−v).  From momentum conservation in x-direction

Here x, y represent direction.They are not variable. 1 and 2 represent before and after.

2vm=v1xm+v2xm, we find v1x=v.

From momentum conservation in y-direction

0 =v1ym+v2ym, we findv1y=v.

(b) By energy conservation principle

Before: K=1/2m(2v)^2=2mv^2.

After: K=1/2m(v^2(1x)+v^2(1y))+12m(v22x+v22y)=2mv^2

(c) The collision is elastic
