A ball is thrown horizontally from a window that is 15.4 meters high at a speed of 3.01 m/s. How far will the ball go before hit
tia_tia [17]

The distance travelled by the ball that is thrown horizontally from a window that is 15.4 meters high at a speed of 3.01 m/s is 5.34 m

s = ut + 1 / 2 at²

s = Distance

u = Initial velocity

t = Time

a = Acceleration

Vertically,

s = 15.4 m

u = 0

a = 9.8 m / s²

15.4 = 0 + ( 1 / 2 * 9.8 * t² )

t² = 3.14

t = 1.77 s

Horizontally,

u = 3.01 m / s

a = 0 ( Since there is no external force )

s = ( 3.01 * 1.77 ) + 0

s = 5.34 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the ball before hitting the ground is 5.34 m

Willie, in a 100.0 m race, initially accelerates uniformly from rest at 2.00 m/s2 until reaching his top speed of 12.0 m/s. He m
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The total time for the race is 11.6 seconds

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Total distance ran by Willie = 100.0 m

Initial acceleration = 2.00m/s²

Top speed reached with initial acceleration = 12.0 m/s

Point where Willie start to fade and decelerate = 16.0 m from the finish line

Speed with which Willie crosses the finish line = 8.00 m/s

The time and distance covered with the initial acceleration are found using the following equations of motion;

v = u₀ + a·t

v² = u₀² + 2·a·s

Where:

v = Final velocity reached with the initial acceleration = 12.0 m/s

u₀ = Initial velocity at the start of the race = 0 m/s

t = Time during acceleration

a = Initial acceleration = 2.00 m/s²

s = Distance covered during the period of initial acceleration

From, v = u₀ + a·t, we have;

12 = 0 + 2×t

t = 12/2 = 6 seconds

From, v² = u₀² + 2·a·s, we have;

12² = 0² + 2×2×s

144 = 4×s

s = 144/4 =36 meters

Given that the Willie maintained the top speed of 12.0 m/s until he was 16.0 m from the finish line, we have;

Distance covered at top speed = 100 - 36 - 16 = 48 meters

Time, t_t of running at top speed = Distance/velocity = 48/12 = 4 seconds

The deceleration from top speed to crossing the line is found as follows;

v₁² = u₁² + 2·a₁·s₁

Where:

u₁ = v = 12 m/s

v₁ = The speed with which Willie crosses the line = 8.00 m/s

s₁ = Distance covered during decelerating = 16.0 m

a₁ = Deceleration

From which we have;

8² = 12² + 2 × a × 16

64 = 144 + 32·a

64 - 144 = 32·a

32·a = -80

a = -80/32 = -2.5 m/s²

From, v₁ = u₁ + a₁·t₁

Where:

t₁ = Time of deceleration

We have;

8 = 12 + (-2.5)·t₁

t₁ = (8 - 12)/(-2.5) = 1.6 seconds

The total time = t + t_t + t₁ =6 + 4 + 1.6 = 11.6 seconds.

Hi there!

The maximum deformation of the bumper will occur when the car is temporarily at rest after the collision. We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Initially, we only have kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = Kinetic Energy (J)
m = mass (1060 kg)
v = velocity (14.6 m/s)

Once the car is at rest and the bumper is deformed to the maximum, we only have spring-potential energy:

U_s = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)

x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)

Since energy is conserved:

E_I = E_f\\\\KE = U_s\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

We can simplify and solve for 'x'.

mv^2 = kx^2\\\\x = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Plug in the givens and solve.

x = \sqrt{\frac{(1060)(14.6^2)}{(1.14*10^7)}} = \boxed{0.0198 m}
