A ball is thrown down vertically with an initial speed of v0 from a height of h. (a) What is its speed just before it strikes th

e ground? (b) How long does the ball take to reach the ground? What would be the answers to (c) part a and (d) part b if the ball were thrown upward from the same height and with the same initial speed? Before solving any equations, decide whether the answers to (c) and (d) should be greater than, less than, or the same as in (a) and (b).

Answer:

a)   v² = v₀² + 2 g h,  b)   t = v₀/g  (1+ √ (1 + 2gh/ v₀²))

Explanation:

a) This is an exercise that we can solve using conservation of energy.

Starting point. High point

         Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m gh

Final point. Soil

         Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

energy is conserved because there is no friction

         Emo = Em_{f}

         ½ m v₀² + m g h = ½ m v²

         v² = v₀² + 2 g h

b) the time it takes to reach the ground can be calculated with kinematics

let's create a reference frame with positive upward direction

         v = vo - g t

when it reaches the ground it has a velocity v, the initial velocity is downwards v₀ = -v₀

        v = -v₀ - gt

        t = - (v + v₀) / g

we substitute the velocity values ​​calculated in the previous part

        t = - (√(v₀² + 2 g h) + vo) / g

we will simplify the equation a bit

        t = - v₀/g  (1+ √ (1 + 2gh/ v₀²))

c) is now thrown vertically upward with the same initial velocity vo.

   To find the final velocity we use the conservation of energy where the velocity is squared, so it does not matter if it is positive or negative, therefore in this section the value should be the same as in part a

         v = √ (v₀² + 2gh)

d) for this part if there is change since the speed is not squared

     v₀ = v₀

          v = v₀ - gt

          t = (v₀ - v) / g

          t = (v₀ - √(v₀² + 2 g h)) / g

          t = v₀/g   (1 - √(1 + 2gh / v₀²))

Answer these questions please and you will get the brain list
Naddika [18.5K]

I am using the equation F=ma (force equals mass times acceleration) to solve these problems.

1. You are looking for force, and have mass and acceleration. You just plug in the values for mass and acceleration to get the force needed.

F=(15kg)(5m/s^2)

F=75N

2. Again, you are looking for force, and just need to plug in the values for mass and acceleration

F=(3kg)(2.4m/s^2)

F=7.2N

3. In this problem, you have force and mass, but need to find acceleration. To do this, you need to get acceleration alone on one side of the equation - divide each side by m. Your equation will now be F/m=a

a=(5N)/(3.7kg)

a=18.5m/s^2

I did not use significant figures. Let me know if you need to do that and need any help on that. Hope this helps!

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Yes, the capacitor's Q load varies inversely proportional to the distance between plates.

Explanation:

In the attached files you see the inverse relationship between capacity and distance between plates "d".

In the following formula we see its relationship with the "Q" load

A tow truck exerts a force of 1850 N on a 840 kg car. What is the acceleration of the car during this time?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

<h2>2.2 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{1850}{840}  =  \frac{185}{84} \\   = 2.20238095...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.2 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
