You have two balls of equal size and smoothness, and you can ignore air resistance. One is heavy, the other is much lighter. You

hold one in each hand at the same height above the ground. You release them at the same time. What will happen?

Answer:

They will hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation:

By ignoring the opposing forces i.e. air resistant, both the heavy and light balls will fall with same acceleration due to gravity (g=9.8 m/s²) and g is independent of mass of the objects. Thus both will hit the ground at the same time.

The distance between adjacent nodes in a standing wave pattern in a length of string is 25.0 cm:A. What is the wavelength of wav
mina [271]

A) 50 cm

B) 10000 cm/s

Explanation

Step 1

A)

If you know the distance between nodes and antinodes then use this equation:

\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=D \\ \text{where}\lambda\text{ is the wavelength} \\ D\text{ is the distance betw}een\text{ nodes} \end{gathered}

then, let

D=\text{ 25 cm }

now, replace to find the wavelength

\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=25 \\ \text{Multiply both sides by 2} \\ \frac{\lambda}{2}\cdot2=25\cdot2 \\ \lambda=50\text{ Cm} \end{gathered}

so, the wavelength is

A) 50 cm

Step 2

The speed of a wave can be found using the equation

v=\lambda f

or velocity = wavelength x frequency,

then,let

\begin{gathered} \lambda=50\text{ cm} \\ f=200\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}

replace and evaluate

\begin{gathered} v=\lambda f \\ v=50\text{ cm }\cdot200\text{ HZ} \\ v=10000\text{ }\frac{\text{cm}}{s} \end{gathered}

so

B) 10000 cm/s

I hope this helps you

A bowling ball accidentally falls out of the cargo bay of an airliner as it flies along in a horizontal direction. As seen from
valina [46]

The path the bowling ball would most closely follow after leaving the airplane is horizontal direction.

<h3>Path of the bowling ball</h3>

Based on the law of inertia, which is the reluctance of an object to stop moving once in motion or start moving when it is at rest.

The bowling ball will maintain the path of the airline in the first few seconds of fall, after which it will change its path to vertical direction.

Thus, the path the bowling ball would most closely follow after leaving the airplane is horizontal direction.

On another planet gravity has a value of 5.5 m/s . If an object is dropped how long will it take to fall 53 m?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

4.4 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5.5 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

y₀ = 53 m

y = 0 m

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 53 + 0 + ½ (-5.5) t²

0 = 53 − 2.75 t²

t = 4.39

Rounded to two significant figures, it takes 4.4 seconds for the object to land.
