A string is attached to a ball that has a mass of 0.11 kg. A student pulls up on the string so that the ball accelerates upward

at 0.5 m/s2. What is the tension in the string? (Take the magnitude of acceleration due to gravity to be 9.8 m/s2.)
(Hint: How do all the forces involved interact with each other?)

Answer:

T=+1.133N

Explanation:

Tension and weight are forces that have opposite directions

Weight is negative (downward)

W=m*g= 0.11kg*(-9.8m/s^2)

W= -1.078N

Tension is possitive (upward)

The total force will be the sum of both (the difference taking in consideration the direction)

Ft= T+W

Also the total force is the product of the mass due to acceleration:

Ft=m*a

Ft= +0.11kg*0.5m/s^2

Ft=+0.055N (upward)

Tension will be the difference between Ft and W:

T= Ft-W

T=+0.055N-(-1.078N)

T=+1.133N

Based on your observations of the six collisions, describe the physical difference between elastic and inelastic collisions.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Collisions are basically two types: Elastic, and inelastic collision. Elastic collision is defined as the colliding objects return quickly without undergoing any heat generation. Inelastic collision is defined as the where heat is generated, and colliding objects are distorted.

In elastic collision, the total kinetic energy, momentum are conserved, and there is no wasting of energy occurs. Swinging balls is the good example of elastic collision. In inelastic collision, the energy is not conserved it changes from one form to another for example thermal energy or sound energy. Automobile collision is good example, of inelastic collision.

In the high jump, the kinetic energy of an athlete is transformed into gravitational potential energy without the aid of a pole.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.0 m/s

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy (potential, PE, + kinetic, KE) of the athlete must be conserved.

Therefore, we can write:

KE_i+PE_i =KE_f+PE_f

or

\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh

where:

m is the mass of the athlete

u is the initial speed of the athlete (at the bottom)

0 is the initial potential energy of the athlete (at the bottom)

v = 0.80 m/s is the final speed of the athlete (at the top)

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 1.80 m is the final height of the athlete (at the top)

Solving the equation for u, we find the initial speed at which the athlete must jump:

u=\sqrt{v^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0.80^2+2(9.8)(1.80)}=6.0 m/s
