Answer:

Explanation:

The concept of elastic and inelastic demand is applied.

for an elastic demand, the elasticity must be greater than 1 and for an Inelastic demand, the elasticity must be less than 1.

The steps and appropriate calculation is as shown in the attached file.

A 0.700-kg particle has a speed of 1.90 m/s at point circled A and kinetic energy of 7.20 J at point circled B. (a) What is its
Savatey [412]

Answer:

a). E_{kA}=1.2635 J

b). V_{B}=4.535\frac{m}{s}

c). ΔE_{t}=8.4635 J

Explanation:

ΔE=kinetic energy

a).

E_{kA}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v_{A} ^{2} \\ v_{A}=1.9 \frac{m}{s}\\ m=0.70kg\\E_{kA}=\frac{1}{2}*0.70kg*(1.9 \frac{m}{s})^{2} \\E_{kA}=1.2635 J

b).

E_{kB}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v_{B} ^{2}

V_{B}^{2}=\frac{E_{kB}*2}{m} \\V_{B}=\sqrt{\frac{E_{kB}*2}{m}} \\V_{B}=\sqrt{\frac{7.2J*2}{0.70kg}} \\V_{B}=4.53 \frac{m}{s}

c).

net work= EkA+EkB

E_{t}=E_{kA}+ E_{kB}\\E_{t}=1.2635J+7.2J\\E_{t}=8.4635J

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: Part(a)=0.041 secs, Part(b)=0.041 secs

Explanation: Firstly we assume that only the gravitational acceleration is acting on the basket ball player i.e. there is no air friction

now we know that

a=-9.81 m/s^2  ( negative because it is pulling the player downwards)

we also know that

s=76 cm= 0.76 m ( maximum s)

using kinetic equation

v^2=u^2+2as

where v is final velocity which is zero at max height and u is it initial

hence

u^2=-2(-9.81)*0.76

u=3.8615 m/s\\

now we can find time in the 15 cm ascent

s=ut+0.5at^2

0.15=3.861*t+0.5*9.81t^2\\

using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-3.861+\sqrt{3.86^2-4*0.5*9.81(-0.15)} }{2*0.5*9.81}

t=0.0409 sec

the answer for the part b will be the same

To find the answer for the part b we can find the velocity at 15 cm height similarly using

v^2=u^2+2as

where s=0.76-0.15

as the player has traveled the above distance to reach 15cm to the bottom

v^2=0^2 +2*(9.81)*(0.76-0.15)

v=3.4595

when the player reaches the bottom it has the same velocity with which it started which is 3.861

hence the time required to reach the bottom 15cm is

t=\frac{3.861-3.4595}{9.81}

t=0.0409
