Answer: 6.12 kg

Explanation:

Since Mass of ball = ? (let the unknown value be Z)

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8m/s^2

Height, h = 1.5 metres

Gravitational potential energy GPE = 90J

Gravitational potential energy depends on the weight of the ball, the action of gravity and height.

Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h

90J = Z x 9.8m/s^2 x 1.5m

90 = Z x 14.7

Z = 90/14.7

Z = 6.12 kg

Thus, the bowling ball weigh 6.12 kilograms

A 5.93 kg ball is attached to the top of a vertical pole with a 2.35 m length of massless string. The ball is struck, causing it
Delvig [45]

Answer

given,

mass of ball = 5.93 kg

length of the string = 2.35 m

revolve with velocity of 4.75 m/s

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

T cos θ = mg

T cos θ = 5.93\times 9.81

T cos θ = 58.17

T sin \theta =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

T sin \theta =\dfrac{5.93\times 4.75^2}{2.35 sin \theta}

T sin^2 \theta =56.93

sin^2 \theta = 1 - cos^2 \theta

T (1 - cos^2 \theta) =56.93

T (1 - (\dfrac{58.17}{T})^2) =56.93

T² - 56.93T - 3383.75 = 0

T =  93.22 N

cos \theta = \dfrac{58.17}{93.22}

θ = 51.39°

Newton’s 3rd law of motion states that “every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” A golf ball was hit with a force of 20
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

<u>Example of Newton's III law</u>

  • In the, golf the ball was hit by a club with certain force. As the club hits the ball it's the action. When the ball flies away its the reaction.
  • When a person swings a golf club at the ball, when it hits the ball, it causes the ball to roll up the face of the club and into the air towards the target.
