During a tennis match, a player serves the ball at 27.4 m/s, with the center of the ball leaving the racquet horizontally 2.34 m

above the court surface. The net is 12.0 m away and 0.900 m high. When the ball reaches the net, (a) what is the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net? (b) Suppose that, instead, the ball is served as before but now it leaves the racquet at 5.00° below the horizontal. When the ball reaches the net, what now is the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net? Enter a positive number if the ball clears the net. If the ball does not clear the net, your answer should be a negative number. Use g=9.81 m/s2.

a. The ball's horizontal and vertical positions at time t are given by

x=\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t

y=2.34\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

The ball reaches the net when x=12.0\,\rm m:

12.0\,\mathrm m=\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\implies t=0.438\,\rm s

At this time, the ball is at an altitude of

2.34\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2\left(0.438\,\mathrm s\right)^2=1.40\,\mathrm m

which is 1.40 m - 0.900 m = 0.500 m above the net.

b. The change in angle gives the ball the new position functions

x=\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos(-5.00^\circ)t

y=2.34\,\mathrm m+\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin(-5.00^\circ)t-\dfrac g2t^2

The ball reaches the net at time t such that

\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos(-5.00^\circ)t=12.0\,\mathrm m\implies t=0.440\,\mathrm s

at which point the ball's vertical position would be

2.34\,\mathrm m+\left(27.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin(-5.00^\circ)\left(0.440\,\mathrm s\right)-\dfrac g2\left(0.440\,\mathrm s\right)^2=0.343\,\mathrm m

so that the ball does not clear the net with 0.343 m - 0.900 m = -0.557 m.

a moving billiard ball collides with an identical stationary billiard ball in an elastic collision. after the collision, the sec
MArishka [77]

A billiard ball collides with a stationary identical billiard ball to make it move. If the collision is perfectly elastic, the first ball comes to rest after collision.

<h3>Why does the first ball comes to rest after collision ?</h3>

Let m be the mass of the two identical balls.  

u1 = velocity before the collision of ball 1

u2 = 0 = velocity of second ball that is at rest

v1 and v2 are the velocities of the balls after the collision.

From the conservation of momentum,

∴ mu1 + mu2 = mv1 + mv2

∴ mu1 = mv1 + mv2

∴ u1 = v1 + v2

In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system before and after collision remains same.

\frac{1}{2}  mu_1^2+0=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}  mv_2^2

∴  \frac{1}{2}  m(v_1+v_2 )^2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

∴ \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2+mv_1 v_2=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2

∴ mv₁v₂ = 0

  1. It is impossible for the mass to be zero.
  2. Because the second ball moves, velocity v2 cannot be zero.
  3. As a result, the velocity of the first ball, v1, is zero, indicating that it comes to rest after collision.
<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

An elastic collision is a collision between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains constant. There is no net transfer of kinetic energy into other forms such as heat, noise, or potential energy in an ideal, fully elastic collision.

A light source radiates 60.0 W of single-wavelength sinusoidal light uniformly in all directions. What is the amplitude of the m
Anna35 [415]

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of Intensity as a function of Power and the definition of magnetic field.

The intensity depending on the power is defined as

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2},

Where

P = Power

r = Radius

Replacing the values that we have,

I = \frac{60}{(4*\pi (0.7)^2)}

I = 9.75 Watt/m^2

The definition of intensity tells us that,

I = \frac{1}{2}\frac{B_o^2 c}{\mu}

Where,

B_0 =Magnetic field

\mu = Permeability constant

c = Speed velocity

Then replacing with our values we have,

9.75 = \frac{Bo^2 (3*10^8)}{(4\pi*10^{-7})}

Re-arrange to find the magnetic Field B_0

B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T

Therefore the amplitude of the magnetic field of this light is B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T

What forces control the strength of the tides
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Gravity is one major force that creates tides. In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth (Sumich, J.L., 1996).

Explanation:

I hope this helps.
