Answer:

Stayed the same

Explanation:

Potential energy is a function of mass, gravity and height relative to a reference level. If we take as the reference level the soil, this is the level where the potential energy is zero. Since in problem it is mentioned that the track is flat, this means that there are no height changes with respect to the reference level, therefore we can say that the potential energy remains unchanged.

Ep = m*g*h

where:

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity [m/s^2]

h = elevation [m]

The absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

<h3>What is a circular motion?</h3>

It should be noted that a circular motion simply means the movement of an object along the circumference of the circle.

In this case, the absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

If the friction is absent, the pucks will continue to move on the same path due to the first law of Newton and the law of conversation of energy. In this case,the results will match the predictions until there's loss in energy.

A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car $a_1=5.9m/sec^2$

Acceleration of the stock car $a_2=3.6m/sec^2$

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So $s_1=s_2$

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So $\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6$

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m$

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec

A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a softball to her friends in the water below. She th

Answer:

58.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total time the ball takes to reach the water. This can be done by looking at the vertical motion only.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u sin \theta$

where

u = 21.5 m/s is the initial speed

$\theta=33.5^{\circ}$ is the angle

Substituting,

$u_y = (21.5) sin 33.5^{\circ} =11.9 m/s$

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 13.5 m is the initial heigth

$g = -9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative sign because it points downward)

The ball reaches the water when y = 0, so

$0 = h + u_yt +\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\0 = 13.5 +11.9 t - 4.9t^2$

Which gives two solutions: t = 3.27 s and t = -0.84 s. We discard the negative solution since it is meaningless.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u cos \theta = (21.5) cos 33.5^{\circ} =17.9 m/s$

And since the motion along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion, we can find the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as follows:

$d= u_x t = (17.9)(3.27)=58.5 m$

A karate master strikes a board with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s, decreasing to 1.0 m/s as his hand passes through the board

kenny6666 [7]

The force exerted on the board by the karate master given the data is -4500 N

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>

Initial velocity (u) = 10 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 1 m/s
Time (t) = 0.002 s
Mass (m) = 1 Kg
Force (F) = ?

<h3>How to determine the force</h3>

The force exerted can be obtained as illustrated below:

F = m(v - u) / t

F = 1 (1 - 10) / 0.002

F = (1 × -9) / 0.002

F = -4500 N
