A small rubber ball is thrown at a heavier, larger basketball that is still. The small ball bounces off the basketball. Assume t

here are no outside forces acting on the balls.
A. How does the force on the small ball compare to the force on the basketball?
B. Compare the total momentum of the two balls before and after the collision?
C. The mass of the basketball is 600 grams and its velocity before the small ball hits is 0 m/s. The mass of the small ball is 100 grams and its velocity is +5 m/s before the collision and -4 m/s afterward. What is the velocity of the basketball after the collision?

A 100-gram rubber ball was launched at a wall with different amounts of force. The speed of the ball was measured after it hit the wall and bounced off. The table below shows the data collected during the investigation.

Force Investigation Data

Launch Force on Ball Return Speed after Bounce

0.5 N 5 m/s

1.5 N 9 m/s

2.0 N 18 m/s

Which of the following best explains the trend shown by the data?

How can we calculate the e.m.f of the battery?.
cluponka [151]

Explanation:

The emf is equal to the work done on the charge per unit charge (ϵ=dWdq) when there is no current flowing. Since the unit for work is the joule and the unit for charge is the coulomb, the unit for emf is the volt (1V=1J/C).

devlian [24]

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) 63.83 kg

(b) 0.725 m/s

Explanation:

The given query seems to be incomplete. Below is the attachment of the full question is attached.

The given values are:

T = 3 sec

k = 280 N/m

(a)

The mass of the string will be:

⇒ T=2 \pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

or,

⇒ m=\frac{k T^2}{4 \pi^2}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =\frac{280\times (3)^2}{4 \pi^2}

⇒     =\frac{280\times 9}{4\times (3.14)^2}

⇒     =68.83 \ kg

(b)

The speed of the string will be:

⇒  \frac{1}{2}k(0.4)^2=\frac{1}{2}k(0.2)^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2

then,

⇒             v=\sqrt{\frac{k((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{m} }

On substituting the values, we get

⇒                =\sqrt{\frac{280\times ((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{63.83} }

⇒                =\sqrt{\frac{280(0.16-0.04)}{63.83} }

⇒                =\sqrt{\frac{280\times 0.12}{63.83} }

⇒                =0.725 \ m/s

A girl is shown at position A on a swing when the seat is directly below the support bar. The seat is then at height A as shown
MrRa [10]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>

  • <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>

Explanation:

Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.

The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>

Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,

posledela

Answer:

R= 602 .11 N

Explanation:

The horizontal component of tension T will give reaction of the wall and the vertical component of T will balance the weight of of the climber .

T cos32 = R

710 x .848 = R

R= 602 .11 N .
