A Ping-Pong ball has a mass of 2.3 g and a terminal speed of 9.2 m/s. The drag force is of the form bv2 What is the value of b?

1 answer:

8 0

Drag force is a force that resist the motion of a certain body through a fluid like air or water. This can be calculated through the equation,
D = 0.5Cρv²
where D is drag, C is the drag coefficient, ρ is the density and v is the velocity. The value therefore of b in the item above is,
b = 0.5Cρ

A mass is attached to a spring with an unknown spring constant. The spring gains 10 J of elastic potential energy if stretched b

Firlakuza [10]

From the given information in the question, the correct option is Option 1: 14 cm.

A non-stretched elastic spring has a conserved potential energy which gives it the ability to perform work. The elastic potential energy can be expressed as:

PE = $\frac{1}{2}$ k $x^{2}$

Where PE is the energy, k is the spring constant and x is extension.

i. Given that: PE = 10 J and x = 10 cm, then;

PE = $\frac{1}{2}$ k $x^{2}$

10 = $\frac{1}{2}$ k $10^{2}$

20 = 100k

k = 0.2 J/cm

ii. To determine how far the spring is needed to be stretched, given that PE = 20 J.

PE = $\frac{1}{2}$ k $x^{2}$

20 = $\frac{1}{2}$ (0.2) $x^{2}$

40 = 0.2 $x^{2}$

$x^{2}$ = 200

x = $\sqrt{200}$

= 14.1421

x = 14.14 cm

So that;

x is approximately 14.00 cm.

Thus, the spring need to be stretched to 14.00 cm to give the spring 20 J of elastic potential energy.

A uniform marble rolls down a symmetrical bowl, start- ing from rest at the top of the left side. The top of each side is a dist

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Part a)

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation the total energy at the bottom of the bowl is given as

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh$

here we know that on the left side the ball is rolling due to which it is having rotational and transnational both kinetic energy

now on the right side of the bowl there is no friction

so its rotational kinetic energy will not change and remains the same

so it will have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh'$

now we know that

$I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$

so we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{10}{14}mgh$

so the height on the smooth side is given as

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Why do the graphs differ?

melisa1 [442]

Well first graph represents rectangular hyperbola

vu = c^2 ( c is constant)

AS 1/v + 1/u = 1/f

Take1/ f to be constant c

1/v = c - 1/u

it is of the form y = - x + k

Slope = -1 having intercept k as shown in fig 2

A 600 kg car is at test and then accelerated to 5m/s , what is its original kinetic energy

ycow [4]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as:

KE = 1/2 m v²

where m is mass and v is velocity.

The car starts at rest, so it has zero velocity. Therefore, its initial kinetic energy is 0 J.
