A billiard ball travels 23 cm in the positive direction , hits the cushion and rebounds in the negative direction , and Finally

comes to rest 8.0 cm behind its orbital position.
What’s the displacement of the ball?
Physics

4 0

Explanation :

Displacement refers to the distance between the final and the initial position. Hence the displacement of the ball will be the difference between the initial and the final displacement.

Let the initial position be 0.

Final position = 8 cm

So the difference between initial position and final position = 0 – 8 = - 8 cm.

So the billiard ball comes to rest 8.0 cm behind its orbital position.

A spring with force constant of 59 N/m is compressed by 1.3 cm in a hockey game machine. The compressed spring is used to accele
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Explanation:

As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.

So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.

Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So

1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have

1/2kx² = mgh

h = kx²/2mg

= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N

= 0.0259 m

= 2.59 cm

≅ 2.6 cm

So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

A circuit is set up such that it has a current of 8 A. What would be the new current if the resistance was increased by a factor
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

The equation can also be rewritten as

I=\frac{V}{R}

from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.

In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:

R ' = 2R

So the new current is

I'=\frac{V}{R'}=\frac{V}{2R}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{V}{R})=\frac{I}{2}=4 A

so the current is halved.

A car is initially moving at 35 km/h along a straight highway. To pass another car, it speeds up to 135 km/h in 10.5 seconds at
Aleks04 [339]
Acceleration = (velocity final-velocity initial)/ time
where
velocity final = 135 km/hr x 1 hr /3600 s x 1000m/1km
                     = 37.5 m/s
velocity initial = 35 km/hr x  1hr /3600 s x 1000 m/1 km
                      =  9.72 m/s
a) acceleration = 2.646 m/s^2
b) acceleration in g units  = (2.646m/s^2)/(9.8m/s^2)
                                              = 0.27 units

1.- An elevator is being lowered at a constant speed by a steel cable attached to an electric motor. Which statement is correct?
Nady [450]

Answer:

the correct one is C

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the work definition

    W = F. s

Where the bold characters indicate vectors and the point is the scalar producer

    W = F s cos θ

Where θ is the angles between force and displacement.

Let us support this in our case. The cable creates an upward tension and with the elevator going down the angle between them is 180º so the work of the cable on the elevator is negative.

The evade has a downward force, its weight so the force goes down and the displacement goes down, as both are in the same direction the work is positive

When examining the statements the correct one is C
