A stopwatch is used to measure how long it takes a sprinter to run 100 meters. this stopwatch measures time intervals to hundred

ths of seconds. using the stopwatch the timekeeper measures the sprinter’s time as 9.88 seconds. the timekeeper then writes down the sprinter’s time as 9.88 0.005 s ± . what is wrong with this?

First you need to know the smallest counting unit in this case. As this stopwatch measures time intervals to hundredths of a second, the uncertainty should be ± 0.01s (seconds) NOT ± 0.005s. Hence 0.01 is the smallest counting unit in this case. Hence the answer should be 9.88 <span>± 0.01s.

A rope of negligible mass passes over a uniform cylindrical pulley of 1.50kg massand 0.090m radius. The bearings of the pulley h
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of pulley, m3 = 1.5 kg

Radius of pulley, R = 0.09 m

mass of monkey, m2 = 4.5 kg

mass of banana bunch, m1 = 3 kg

Let a is teh acceleration ans T1 and T2 be the tension in the rope.

The moment of inertia of the pulley

I = 0.5 x m3 x R² = 0.5 x 1.5 x 0.09 x 0.09 = 0.006075 kgm²

According to Newton's second law

T1 - m1 g = m1 x a .... (1)

m2 g - T2 = m2 x a ..... (2)

(T2 - T1 ) x R = I x α    

where, α is the angular acceleration

α = a / R

(T2 - T1)R = 0.5 x m3 x R² x a / R

T2 - T1 = 0.5 x m3 x a ..... (3)  

from (1), (2) and (3)

a = \frac{m_{2}-m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}+\frac{m_{3}}{2}}\times g

a = \frac{4.5-3}{3+4.5+0.75}\times 9.8

a = 1.78 m/s²

from equation (1)

T1 = m1 ( g + a) = 3 ( 9.8 + 1.78) = 34.77 N

from equation (2)

T2 = m2 (g - a) = 4.5 (9.8 - 1.78) = 36.13 N

A student throws a baseball horizontally at 25 meters per second from a cliff 45 meters above the level ground. Approximately ho
Delicious77 [7]
First, calculate how long the ball is in midair. This will depend only on the vertical displacement; once the ball hits the ground, projectile motion is over. Since the ball is thrown horizontally, it originally has no vertical speed. 
t = time vi = initial vertical speed = 0m/s g = gravity = -9.8m/s^2 y = vertical displacement = -45m 
y = .5gt^2 [Basically, in this equation we see how long it takes the ball to fall 45m] -45m = .5 (-9.8m/s^2) * t^2 t = 3.03 s 
Now we know that the ball is midair for 3.03s. Since horizontal speed is constant we can simply use: 
x = horizontal displacement v = horizontal speed = 25m/s t = time = 3.03s 
x = v*t x = 25m/s * 3.03s = 75.76 m Thus, the ball goes about 75 or 76 m from the base of the cliff.
