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.

Helga [31]

Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m

Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.

Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2

Tangential speed = 2.0m/s

Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7

= 1.48m

Diameter = radius*2

= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.

Define resistance and describe what would happen to a light bulb if the voltage increased but the resistance stayed the same. (h
PtichkaEL [24]

The light bulb would glow brighter.

<h3>What is Resistance?</h3>

a force that works against a body's direction of motion and seeks to stop or slow down motion, such as friction. a measure of how much a material prevents an electric current from flowing as a result of a voltage.

What is the law of resistance?

Resistance and Ohm's Law. According to Ohm's law, the resistance of the circuit and the current or energy travelling through the resistance are both exactly proportional to the voltage or potential difference between two places.

The current would grow since it is exactly proportionate to the voltage, increasing the light bulb's brilliance, or simply making it brighter.
