Dave throws a 10 kg bowling ball straight up in the air. At the very tippy-top of its path, what is it's momentum?

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:Zero

Explanation:

Given

mass of ball $m=10\ kg$

If the ball is thrown upward then at maximum point velocity of ball is zero because ball is no longer able to move upward

Momentum(P) of a particle is given by

$P=mass\times velocity$

$P=10\times 0$

$P=0$

Therefore at the highest point momentum is zero .

A ball is thrown with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 40o above the horizontal from the top of a 22-m tall building.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

(a). The distance is 49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 20 m/s

Angle = 40°

Height = 22 m

Time = 3.25 sec

(a). We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of distance

$d=u\cos\theta\times t$

Put the value into the formula

$d=20\cos40\times3.25$

$d=49.79\ m$

(b). We need to calculate the horizontal velocity

Using formula of velocity

$v_{x}=u\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{x}=20\times\cos40$

$v_{x}=15.3\ m/s$

We need to calculate the vertical velocity

Using equation of motion

$v_{y}=u\sin\theta-gt$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{y}=20\sin40-9.8\times3.25$

$v_{y}=-19\ m/s$

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

We need to calculate the speed of ball

Using formula of speed

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}$

$v=\sqrt{(15.3)^2+(19)^2}$

$v=24.39\ m/s$

Hence, (a). The distance is 49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

Olaf is standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo, New York; there is negligible fricti

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

v = 0.059 m/s

Explanation:

To find the final speed of Olaf and the ball you use the conservation momentum law. The momentum of Olaf and the ball before catches the ball is the same of the momentum of Olaf and the ball after. Then, you have:

$mv_{1i}+Mv_{2i}=(m+M)v$ (1)

m: mass of the ball = 0.400kg

M: mass of Olaf = 75.0 kg

v1i: initial velocity of the ball = 11.3m/s

v2i: initial velocity of Olaf = 0m/s

v: final velocity of Olaf and the ball

You solve the equation (1) for v and replace the values of all variables:

$v=\frac{mv_{1i}}{m+M}=\frac{(0.400kg)(11.3m/s)}{0.400kg+75.0kg}=0.059\frac{m}{s}$

Hence, after Olaf catches the ball, the velocity of Olaf and the ball is 0.059m/s

Two charges separated by one meter exert a 9 N force on each other. If the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, the force

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The formula of force that exists between two charges is expressed as;

F = kq1q2/r²

If two charges separated by one meter exert a 9 N force on each other, the;

9 = kq1q2/1²

9 = kq1q2 ..... 1

If the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then;

F = kq1q2/3²

F = kq1q2/9 .... 2

Divide both equations;

9/F = (kq1q2)/ kq1q2/9

9/F = kq1q2 * 9/ kq1q2

9/F = 9

F = 9/9

F = 1N

Hence if the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then the force on EACH charge will be 1N. Hence the answer is False
