A rubber ball and a steel ball are dropped from the same height onto a concrete floor. They have the same mass, and lets assume

Mkey [24]

Answer:

The average forces would be the same

Explanation:

Both have the same velocity on impact as they fell from the same height.

Both have the same velocity after the bounce because they reach the same height.

Both have the same mass

Both will thus experience the same impulse because both have the same change in momentum.

Therefore both experience the same average force.

A 3.0-kg block starts at rest at the top of a 37° incline, which is 5.0 m long. Its speed when it reaches the bottom is 2.0 m/s.

Mama L [17]

Answer: $f_{r}$ = 16.49N

Explanation: The object is placed on an inclined plane at an angle of 37° thus making it weight have two component,

$W_{x}$ = horizontal component of the weight = mgsinФ

$W_{y}$ = vertical component of weight = mgcosФ

Due to the way the object is positioned, the horizontal component of force will accelerate the object thus acting as an applied force.

by using newton's law of motion, we have that

mgsinФ - $f_{r}$ = ma

where m = mass of object=5kg

a = acceleration= unknown

Ф = angle of inclination = 37°

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 $m/s^{2}$

$f_{r}$ = frictional force = unknown

we need to first get the acceleration before the frictional force which is gotten by using the equation below

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2aS$

where v = final velocity = 2m/s

u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because the object started from rest)

a= unknown

S= distance covered = length of plane = 5m

$2^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*a*5\\\\4= 10 *a\\\\a = \frac{4}{10} \\a = 0.4m/s^{2}$

we slot in a into the equation below to get frictional force

mgsinФ - $f_{r}$ = ma

3 * 9.8 * sin 37 - $f_{r}$ = 3* 0.4

17.9633 - $f_{r}$ = 1.2

$f_{r}$ = 17.9633 - 1.2

$f_{r}$ = 16.49N

An iron bar has more mass than a plastic bar of the same volume. so the iron bar will have greater inertia.

Irina-Kira [14]

The response is False, both bars, iron bars and plastic bars have de same inertia, this characteristic does not depend on the type of material, the inertia depends on his transverse section, since we can estimate in the following formula

<span>Area moment of inertia Ixx = BH3/12</span>

<span>Area moment of inertia Iyy= HB3/12</span>
