A ball having a mass of 200 g is released from rest at a height of 400 mm above a very large fixed metal surface. If the ball re

bounds to a height of 325 mm above the surface, determine the coefficient of restitution between the ball and the surface.

Answer:

0.9

Explanation:

h = 400 mm, h' = 325 mm

Let the coefficient of restitution be e.

h' = e^2 x h

325 = e^2 x 400

e^2 = 0.8125

e = 0.9

A coat rack weighs 65.0 lbs when it is filled with winter coats and 40.0 lbs when it is empty. The base of the coat rack has an
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.

Explanation:

First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:

P₁ = F/A

where,

P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?

F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²

P₁ = 0.088 psi

Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.

P₂ = F/A

where,

P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?

F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²

P₂ = 0.144 psi

Now, the difference between both pressures is:

ΔP = P₂ - P₁

ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi

<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>

After a student shoves a book across a flat table, it begins to slow down. Why?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

  • <u>The force of friction opposes the motion of an object, causing moving objects to lose energy and slow down. When objects move through a fluid, such as air or water, the fluid exerts a frictional force on the moving object. The frictional force from a fluid is called a drag force.</u>

Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. she sees that the ball goes by the top of a flagpole after 0.50 s and reaches the l
Arisa [49]
The time it takes for a ball to complete the trip is given to be 4.10 s. This implies that the trip going up of the ball is equal to 2.05 s. Using this time to determine the initial speed, we have,
                                   Vf = Vo - gt
Vf is the final speed which is equal to 0 on the topmost location of the ball.
                                     0 = Vo - (9.8 m/s²)(2.05 s)
                                        Vo = 20.09 m/s

At 0.5 s,
                                    Vf = 20.09 m/s - (9.8 m/s²)(0.5 s)
                                          Vf = 15.19 m/s

Thus, the speed of the ball when the height is in level with the top of the flagpole is 15.19 m/s.

The core of an optical fiber has an index of refraction of 1.35 , while the index of refraction of the cladding surrounding the
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The  critical angle is  \theta_c  = \ 63.68^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The refractive index of the core is  n_c  =  1.35

   The refractive index of the cladding  is n_s  =  1.21

Generally according to Snell's law

      \frac{sin i }{sin r } =  \frac{n_s}{n_c }

Here for total internal reflection the refractive angle is  r = 90^o and  the critical angle is equal to the critical angle so  i  =  \theta_c

      \frac{sin \theta_c  }{sin (90) } =  \frac{n_s}{n_c }

substituting values

       \frac{sin \theta_c }{sin (90) } =  \frac{1.21}{1.35 }

       \theta_c  = sin^{-1} [\frac{1.21}{1.35} ]

      \theta_c  = \ 63.68^o
