Answer:

Due to energy loss while collision ball will not reach to same height while if there is no energy loss then in that case ball will reach to same height

Explanation:

As we know that initially ball is held at height h = 40 cm

So here we can say that kinetic energy of the ball is zero and potential energy is given as

U = mgH

now when strike with the ground then its its fraction of kinetic energy is lost in form of other energies

So the ball will left rebound with smaller energy and hence it will reach to height less than the initial height

While if we assume that there is no energy loss during collision then in that case ball will reach to same height again

A standard 1 kilogram weight is a cylinder 54.0 mm in height and 55.0 mm in diameter. what is the density of the material
denis-greek [22]

The radius of the cylinder is equal to half the diameter:

r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{55.0 mm}{2}=27.5 mm

The volume of the cylinder is given by:

V=\pi r^2 h=\pi (27.5 mm)^2 (54.0 mm)=1.28 \cdot 10^5 mm^3

where h is the heigth of the cylinder. Converting into meters,

V=1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3

And the density of the material will be given by the ratio between the mass and the volume:

d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{1 kg}{1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3}=7812.5 kg/m^3

The planet Saturn has a mass that is 95 times Earth's mass and a radius that is 9.4 times Earth's radius. What is the accelerati
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

10.55111 m/s²

Explanation:

M = Mass of Saturn = 95\times 5.972\times 10^{24}\ kg

r = Radius of Saturn = 9.4\times 6.371\times 10^6\ m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Acceleration due to gravity is given by

g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 95\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{(9.4\times 6.371\times 10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow g=10.55111\ m/s^2

The acceleration due to gravity on Saturn is 10.55111 m/s²

The sport with the fastest moving ball is jai alai, where measured speeds can be 286 km/h. If a professional jai alai player fac
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

d= 794.4 cmExplanation:

Given that

Speed ,V= 286 km/h

=286\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}\ m/s

V=79.44 m/s

Given that time ,t= 100 ms

t= 0.1 s

We know that ( if acceleration is zero)

Distance = Speed x time

d= V t

Now by putting the values in the above equation

d = 79.44 x 0.1 m

d= 7.944 m

We know that 1 m = 100 cm

d= 794.4 cm
