While leaning out a window that is 6.0 m above the ground, you drop a 0.60-kg basketball to a friend at ground level. Your frien

d catches the ball at a height of 1.6 m above the ground. Determine the following.(a) the amount of work done by the force of gravity on the ball.(b) the gravitational potential energy of the ball-earth system, relative to the ground when it is released.(c) the gravitational potential energy of the ball-earth system, relative to the ground when it is caught.

Answer:

a) W = 25.872 J

b) - 35.28 J

c) - 9.408

Explanation:

a) The amount of work done by the force of gravity on the ball = Change in potential energy between the two vertical points = - mg (H₂ - H₁)

F = - mg (gravity is acting downwards)

F = - 0.6 × 9.8 = - 5.88 N

(H₂ - H₁) = (1.6 - 6) = - 4.4 m

W = (-5.88)(-4.4) = 25.872 J

b) Gravitational-potential energy of the ball when it was released relative to the ground = (- mg) H₁ = (- 0.6 × 9.8) × 6 = - 35.28 J

c) Gravitational-potential energy of the ball when it is caught relative to the ground = (-mg)(H₂) = -0.6 × 9.8 × 1.6 = - 9.408 J

Answer:

a is 4.6 x 10-2m

b is 1x8204m

Explanation:

The fire net is actually going past zero into a negative vertical displacement. Essentially because again, we're saying that why initial equals thirty eight meters. The person is falling down to zero meters. Zero meters is where the fire that is. And then after the person stretches the fire. Yet it has a certain vertical displacement. But this particles placement is negative. So here we're going to choose the negative value. so trying to see how much of the fire net would stretch if the person was lying on tough it and if the person jumped from a height of thirty eight meters. So for here Mass is going to be equal to sixty two kilograms and why initial for party is going to be twenty meters and then why final is going to be negative one point four meters And so in order to find in order to find this is an instance, essentially, this is an instance perspective in the sense that we need this data in order to figure out this during constant so we can see that energy initial equals energy final and then we consider it mg y initial equals mg.

A circus tightrope walker weighing 800 N is standing in the middle of a 15 meter long cable stretched between two posts. The cab
Lorico [155]

Answer:

T = 10010 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the translational equilibrium relation, let's set a reference frame

X axis

       Fₓ-Fₓ = 0

       Fₓ = Fₓ

whereby the horizontal components of the tension in the cable cancel

Y Axis  

        F_{y} + F_{y} - W =0

        2F_{y} = W

let's use trigonometry to find the angles

        tan θ = y / x

        θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 L)

        θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 15)

        θ = 2.29º

the components of stress are

         F_{y} = T sin θ

we substitute

       2 T sin θ = W

       T = W / 2sin θ

        T = \frac{ 800}{ 2sin 2.29}

        T = 10010 N

Sara and Greg built an electromagnet in science class. They wrapped 50 turns of copper wire around an iron nail and hooked the e
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:Wrap more turns of wire around the nail.

Explanation:The power of an electromagnet is directly proportional to the amount of electricity passing through that electromagnet.

Now,if they increase the number of rounds of the copper coil,the electricity conducting surface amount will also increase.

And that's why the electricity passing through that electromagnet will increase along with the electromagnetic power of that electromagnet.

• Increasing the battery voltage :

If they increase the battery voltage,the electricity which is passing through that electromagnet will also increase in amount .

And as discussed previously,the increasing amount of electricity will also increase the electromagnetic abilities of the electromagnet.
