Answer: 0.53m

Explanation:

According to the equation of motion v²= v₀²+2as

Since the body is launched upward, the final velocity at the maximum height will be "zero" since the body will momentarily be at rest at the maximum height i.e v = 0

Initial velocity given (v₀) = 3.25 m/s

The body is also under the influence of gravity but the acceleration due to gravity will be negative being an upward force (a = -g) and the distance (s) will serve as our maximum height (h)

The equation of motion will.now become

V = v₀² -2gh

Where v = 0 v₀ = 3.25m/s g = 10m/s h = ?

0 = 3.25² - 2(10)h

0 = 10.56 - 20h

-10.56 = -20h

h = 10.56/20

h = 0.53m

Therefore, the maximum height, h (in meters), above the launch point that the basketball will achieve is 0.53m

A toy plane is flying in a horizontal circle by being attached to a 0.75 meter string. The plane has a mass of 101.7 grams and m

nadezda [96]

Answer:

F = 2,894 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

a = v² / r

Angular and linear variables are related.

v = w r

Let's replace

F = m w² r

The radius r and the length of the rope is related

cos is = r / L

r = L cos tea

Let's replace

F = m w² L cos θ

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

m = 101.7 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.1017 kg

θ = 5 rev (2π rad / rev) = 31,416 rad

w = θ / t

w = 31.416 / 5.1

w = 6.16 rad / s

F = 0.1017 6.16² 0.75 cos θ

F = 2,894 cos θ

The maximum value of F is for θ equal to zero

F = 2,894 N

A ball is kicked at an angle of 35° with the ground.a) What should be the initial velocity of the ball so that it hits a target

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

a.18.5 m/s

b.1.98 s

Explanation:

We are given that

$\theta=35^{\circ}$

a.Let $v_0$ be the initial velocity of the ball.

Distance,x=30 m

Height,h=1.8 m

$v_x=v_0cos\theta=v_0cos35$

$v_y=v_0sin\theta=v_0sin35$

$x=v_0cos\theta\times t=v_0cos35\times t$

$t=\frac{30}{v_0cos35}$

$h=v_yt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Substitute the values

$1.8=v_0sin35\frac{30}{v_0cos35}-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(\frac{30}{v_0cso35})^2$

$1.8=30tan35-\frac{6574.6}{v^2_0}$

$\frac{6574.6}{v^2_0}=21-1.8=19.2$

$v^2_0=\frac{6574.6}{19.2}$

$v_0=\sqrt{\frac{6574.6}{19.2}}=18.5 m/s$

Initial velocity of the ball=18.5 m/s

b.Substitute the value then we get

$t=\frac{30}{18.5cos35}$

t=1.98 s

Hence, the time for the ball to reach the target=1.98 s

2. a) A disc rotates about its axis at speed 25 revolutions per minute and takes 15 s to stop. Calculate the

ASHA 777 [7]

The statement shows a case of rotational motion, in which the disc <em>decelerates</em> at <em>constant</em> rate.

i) The angular acceleration of the disc ( $\alpha$ ), in revolutions per square second, is found by the following kinematic formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{o}}{t}$ (1)

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ - Initial angular speed, in revolutions per second.
$\omega_{f}$ - Final angular speed, in revolutions per second.
$t$ - Time, in seconds.

If we know that $\omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}$ , $\omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s}$ y $t = 15\,s$ , then the angular acceleration of the disc is:

$\alpha = \frac{0\,\frac{rev}{s}-\frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}}{15\,s}$

$\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}$

The angular acceleration of the disc is $\frac{1}{36}$ radians per square second.

ii) The number of rotations that the disk makes before it stops ( $\Delta \theta$ ), in revolutions, is determined by the following formula:

$\Delta \theta = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot \alpha}$ (2)

If we know that $\omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}$ , $\omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s}$ y $\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}$ , then the number of rotations done by the disc is:

$\Delta \theta = 3.125\,rev$

The disc makes 3.125 revolutions before it stops.
