Answer:

<em>c. tension, gravity, and the centripetal force</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The ball experiences a variety of force as explained below.

Gravity force acts on the body due to its mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The gravity force on every object on earth due to its mass keeps all object on the surface of the earth.

Although the car moves around in circle, centripetal towards the center of the radius of turn exists on the ball. This centripetal force is due to the constantly changing direction of the circular motion, resulting in a force away from the center. The centripetal force keeps the ball from swinging off away from the center of turn.

Tension force on the string holds the ball against falling towards the earth under its own weight, and also from swinging away from the center of turn of the car. Tension force holds the ball relatively fixed in its vertical position in the car.

Underground water is being pumped into a pool whose cross section is 3 m x 4 m while water is discharged through a 0.076m-diamet
Svetllana [295]
Given:

Area of pool = 3m×4m
Diameter of orifice = 0.076m
Outlet Velocity = 6.3m/s
Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min

Required:

Inlet flowrate

Solution:

The problem can be solved by this general formula.

Accumulation = Inlet flowrate - Outlet flowrate
Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice

First, we need to convert the units of the accumulation velocity into m/s to be consistent.

Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min × (1min/60s)×(1m/100cm)
Accumulation velocity = 0.00025 m/s

We then calculate the area of the pool and the area of the orifice by:

Area of pool = 3 × 4 m²
Area of pool = 12m²

Area of orifice = πd²/4 = π(0.076m)²/4
Area of orifice = 0.00454m²

Since we have all we need, we plug in the values to the general equation earlier

Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice

0.00025 m/s × 12m² = Inlet flowrate - 6.3m/s × 0.00454m²

Transposing terms,

Inlet flowrate = 0.316 m³/s

If the ball shown in the figure lands in 0.5 s, about what height was it thrown from?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: 1.22 m

Explanation:

The equation of motion in this situation is:

y=y_{o}+V_{oy}t-\frac{g}{2}t^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0 is the final height of the ball

y_{o}=h is the initial height of the ball

V_{oy}=V_{o}sin(0\°)=0 is the vertical component of the initial velocity (assuming the ball was thrown vertically and there is no horizontal velocity)

t=0.5 s is the time at which the ball lands

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

So, with these conditions the equation is rewritten as:

h=\frac{g}{2}t^{2} (2)

h=\frac{9.8 m/s^{2}}{2}(0.5 s)^{2} (3)

Finally:

h=1.22 m
