A basketball player makes a jump shot. The 0.599 kg ball is released at a height of 2.18 m above the floor with a speed of 7.05

m/s. The ball goes through the net 3.10 m above the floor at a speed of 4.19 m/s. What is the work done on the ball by air resistance, a nonconservative force?

Answer:

W_{drag} = 4.223\,J

Explanation:

The situation can be described by the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

U_{g,A}+K_{A} = U_{g,B} + K_{B} + W_{drag}

The work done on the ball due to drag is:

W_{drag} = (U_{g,A}-U_{g,B})+(K_{A}-K_{B})

W_{drag} = m\cdot g\cdot (h_{A}-h_{B})+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{A}^{2}-v_{B}^{2})

W_{drag} = (0.599\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (2.18\,m-3.10\,m)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.599\,kg)\cdot [(7.05\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(4.19\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}]

W_{drag} = 4.223\,J

Answer:

W = -4.22 J

Explanation:

Given

m = 0.599 kg

vi = 7.05 m/s

yi = 2.18 m

vf = 4.19 m/s

yf = 3.10 m

We apply the equations of the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem

W = Ef - Ei

W = (Kf + Uf) - (Ki + Ui)

W = (m/2)(vf² - vi²) + mg(yf - yi)

W = (0.599 kg/2)((4.19 m/s)² - (7.05 m/s)²) + (0.599 kg)(9.81m/s²)(3.10 m - 2.18 m)

W = -4.22 J

A circular hoop of diameter d hangs on a nail. what is the period of its oscillations at small amplitude?
Misha Larkins [42]

m = mass of the circular hoop

r = radius of the hoop

I = moment of inertia of the hoop

moment of inertia of the hoop about the center of hoop is given as

I = m r²

k = distance of the point of suspension from center of mass = r

using parallel axis theorem

I' = moment of inertia of hoop about the point of suspension

I' = I + m k²

I' = m r² + m k²

I' = m r² + m r²

I' = 2 m r²

Time period of oscillation for the hoop is given as

T = 2π sqrt(I'/mgk)

T = 2π sqrt(2 m r²/(mgr))

T = 2π sqrt(2 r/g)

since 2r = diameter = d

T = 2π sqrt(d/g)

The pressure, p, of water (in pounds per square foot) at a depth of d feet below the surface is given by the formula p=15+15/33d
Viefleur [7K]
The pressure of the water on the diver is given in an expression written as:

<span>p=15+15/33d

where p is the pressure and d is the distance of the diver </span><span>below the surface.

The pressure is calculated as follows:

</span>p=15+15/33(100) = 15.00  pounds per square feet

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

In the laboratory, a ball is dropped onto a force-sensing platform several times, each time hitting a different surface (foam, f
NeX [460]

Answer:

Graphing the momentum against the change in moment yields a linear relationship.

Explanation:

This is an impulse experiment,

          I = ∫ F .dt

where the force and time of the collision are measured, therefore if we assume an average force the integral reduces to

           I = F t

Furthermore, the momentum is equal to the change in moment of the ball, this change in moment can be found using the energy relations measuring the height of the ball and calculating its speed, in the two intervals for the descent and for the exit, possibly the heights are different so the moment change is different from zero.

Starting point. Higher

          Em₀ = U = mgh

Lower end point, just before hitting the scale

          Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

in the path in the air there is no friction

          Em₀ = Em_{f}

          m g h = ½ m v²

          v = \sqrt{2gh}

this height is different for the descent and ascent of the ball, so we have two moments

         Δp = p_{f} - p₀

         Δp = m (v_{f} -v₀)

         

therefore we have the relationship

         

         I = Δp

Graphing the momentum against the change in moment yields a linear relationship.

Rock salt contains sand and salt. A student mixed rock salt in warm water. Describe how the student would separate out the sand,
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, he can add the rock salt to the water and mix it well. Then he can remove the sand by decantation, after the sand has sedimented. He can seperate the water from the salt by evaporation. He should evaporate the water completely and capture the steam. the steam will cool into water. After evaporating completely, the salt will remain in the container

What is the amount of matter in a substance?​
professor190 [17]

Answer:

mass

Explanation:

Mass (M) is the measure of the amount of matter in an object. Mass is measured in grams (g). Mass is measured on a balance by comparing the object against other objects with known masses.
