A Ping-Pong ball is given an upward initial velocity. The force of air resistance causes the times of ascent and descent to be u

nequal. Which time is greater?
Physics

bazaltina [42]3 years ago

Answer:

Time of ascent is greater than time of descent.

Explanation:

The gravitational force always acts in the downward direction. The air drag always opposes the motion.

During ascent, the gravitational force and air drag act in opposite direction to the motion where as during descent, only air drag acts in opposite direction to the motion of the ball while gravitational force acts in the same direction. Thus, the time of ascent and descent become unequal with time of ascent being greater than time of descent.

a cone is constructed by cutting a sector from a circular sheet of metal with radius . the cut sheet is then folded up and welde
Svet_ta [14]

The expression for the radius and height of the cone can be obtained from

the property of a function at the maximum point.

  • The \ radius, \ of \ the \ base \ of \ the \ cone \ is \ \sqrt{ \dfrac{3}{4}} \times radius \ of \ circular \ sheet \ metal
  • The height of the cone is half the length of the radius of the circular sheet metal.

Reasons:

The part used to form the cone = A sector of a circle

The length of the arc of the sector = The perimeter of the circle formed by the base of the cone.

Volume \ of \ a \ cone = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot h

  • Volume \ of \ a \ cone, \, V = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot \sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}

θ/360·2·π·s = 2·π·r

Where;

s = The radius of he circular sheet metal

h = s² - r²

  • \dfrac{dV}{dr} = \dfrac{d}{dr}  \left(\dfrac{1}{3} \cdot  \pi \cdot r^3 \cdot \sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}\right) = \dfrac{\pi \cdot (3 \cdot r^2 \cdot  s^2 - 4 \cdot r^4)}{\sqrt{(s^2- r^2)}} = 0

3·r²·s² - 4·r⁴ = 0

3·r²·s² = 4·r⁴

3·s² = 4·r²

\underline{\left  \right. The \ radius, \, r =\sqrt{ \dfrac{3}{4}} \cdot s}

\underline{The \ height, \, h =\sqrt{s^2 - \dfrac{3}{4}\cdot s^2} = \dfrac{s}{2}}}

9. a. Determine the mass of a football which has a weight of 0.80 N on a planet where the gravitational field strength is 2 N/kg
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

m = 0.4 [kg]

Explanation:

Weight is considered as a force and this is equal to the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

W=m*g\\

where:

W = weight = 0.8 [N]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration 2[N/kg]

Therefore:

m=W/g\\m = .8/2\\m = 0.4 [kg]

Which term describes speed in a certain direction?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

A. Velocity

Explanation:

Velocity is vector quantity thus has both magnitude and direction. It describes not only the speed but also the direction. Speed is scalar quantity so describes only speed but not direction. Energy has nothing to do with speed, acceleration describes change in velocity in a direction over time
