A 4.3 kg steel ball and 6.5 m cord of negligible mass make up a simple pendulum that can pivot without friction about the point

O. This pendulum is released from rest in a horizontal position and when the ball is at its lowest point it strikes a 4.3 kg block sitting at rest on a shelf. Assume that the collision is perfectly elastic and take the coefficient of friction between the block and shelf to be 0.9. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s².

Answer

given,

mass of steel ball, M = 4.3 kg

length of the chord, L = 6.5 m

mass of the block, m = 4.3 Kg

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.9

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

here the potential energy of the bob is converted into kinetic energy

m g L = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

v= \sqrt{2gL}

v= \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 6.5}

      v = 11.29 m/s

As the collision is elastic the velocity of the block is same as that of bob.

now,

work done by the friction force = kinetic energy of the block

f . d = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

\mu m g. d = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

d=\dfrac{v^2}{2\mu g}

d=\dfrac{11.29^2}{2\times 0.9 \times 9.8}

    d = 7.23 m

the distance traveled by the block will be equal to 7.23 m.

A person drops a pebble of mass m1 from a height h, and it hits the floor with kinetic energy KE. The person drops another pebbl
Leona [35]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

<em>✔ We have: KE = PE (potential energy) </em>

<em>PE = m x g x h </em>

The potential energy that the pebble of mass 1 has is called PE1 and the potential energy that the pebble of mass 2 has is called PE2  

PE1 = PE2 ⇔ PE1/PE2 = 1

\frac{m_1\times g\times h}{m_2\times g\times 4h} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2\times 4} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2} = 4

The mass m1 is therefore 4 times greater than that of the stone of mass m2.

A car is traveling at a 20.0 m/s for 7.00 s and then suddenly comes to a stop over a 3 s period.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: A) Deceleration of the car is -6.6667 m/s² while it came to stop.

B) The total distance the car travels is 200 meter during the 10 s period.

Explanation:

Given Data

Initial velocity of the car ($$v_{i}$$) =   20.0 m/s

Final velocity of the car (v_{f}) = 0 m/s

Time (in motion) =7.00 s

Time (in rest) =3 s

To find - A) car's deceleration while it came to a stop

              B) the total distance the car travels in 10 s

A) The formula to find the deceleration is

Deceleration = (( final velocity - initial velocity ) ÷ Time)        (m/s²)

Deceleration = ((v_{f}) - ($$v_{i}$$)) ÷ time     (m/s²)

Deceleration =  ( 0.0 - 20 ) ÷ 3      (m/s²)

Deceleration =   (- 20) ÷ 3  (m/s²)

Deceleration   =  - 6.6667 m/s²

(NOTE : Deceleration is the opposite of acceleration so the final result must have the negative sign)

The car's deceleration is  - 6.6667 m/s² while it came to a stop

B) The formula to find the distance traveled by the car is  

Distance traveled by the car is equals to the product of the speed and time

Distance = Speed × Time  (meter)

Distance = 20.0 × 10

Distance = 200 meters

The total distance the car travels during the period of 10 s is 200 meters

A person throws a ball straight up in the air. The ball rises to a maximum height and then falls back down so that the person ca
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The acceleration is about 9.8 m/s2 (down) when the ball is falling.

Explanation:

The ball at maximum height has velocity zero

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² (positive downward and negative upward)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-9.8\times t\\\Rightarrow u=9.8t

The accleration 9.8 m/s² will always be acting on the body in opposite direction when the body is going up and in the same direction when the body is going down. The acceleration on the body will never be zero
