A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.1 m/s. How long does h

e have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.27 m, and he is 1.96 m tall?

We need to use the kinematic equation
S=ut+(1/2)at^2
where
S=displacement (+=up, in metres)
u=initial velocity (m/s)
t=time (seconds)
a=acceleration (+=up, in m/s^2)

Substitute values
S=displacement = 1.96-2.27 = -0.31 m (so that shot does not hit his head)
u=11.1
a=-9.81 (acceleration due to gravity)

-0.31=11.1t+(1/2)(-9.81)t^2
Rearrange and solve for t
-4.905t^2+11.1t-0.31=0
t=-0.02756 or t=2.291 seconds 
Reject the negative root to give
t=2.29 seconds (to 3 significant figures)

A 0.500-kg block, starting at rest, slides down a 30.0° incline with static and kinetic friction coefficients of 0.350 and 0.250
Leviafan [203]

Answer:x=23.4 cm

Explanation:

Given

mass of block m=0.5 kg

inclination \theta =30

coefficient of static friction \mu =0.35

coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.25

distance traveled d=77.3 cm

spring constant k=35 N/m

work done by gravity+work done by friction=Energy stored in Spring

mg\sin \theta d-\mu _kmg\cos \theta d=\frac{kx^2}{2}

mgd\left ( \sin \theta -\mu _k\cos \theta \right )=\frac{kx^2}{2}

0.5\times 9.8\times 0.773\left ( \sin 30-0.25\cos 30\right )=\frac{35\times x^2}{2}

x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.5\times 9.8\times 0.773(\sin 30-0.25\times \cos 30)}{35}}

x=0.234 m

x=23.4 cm

1. What is the momentum of a golf ball with a mass of 62 g moving at 73 m/s?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.53 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 62 g = 0.062 kg

velocity = 73 m/s

We have

momentum = 0.062 × 73 = 4.526

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.53 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you
