Answer:

Vf = 15 m/s

Explanation:

First we consider the upward motion of ball to find the height reached by the ball. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative sign for upward motion)

h = height =?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, ball momentarily stops at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 15 m/s

Therefore,

2(-9.8 m/s²)h = (0 m/s)² - (15 m/s)²

h = (-225 m²/s²)/(-19.6 m/s²)

h = 11.47 m

Now, we consider downward motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height = 11.47 m

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(11.47 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(224.812 m²/s²)

<u>Vf = 15 m/s</u>

An 100 kg object traveling at 50 m/s collides (perfectly inelastic) with a 50 kg object initially at rest.
qaws [65]

Answer:

Option C. 5,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

<u>Linear Momentum on a System of Particles </u>

Is defined as the sum of the momenta of each particles in a determined moment. The individual momentum is the product of the mass of the particle by its speed

P=mv

The question refers to an 100 kg object traveling at 50 m/s who collides with another object of 50 kg object initially at rest. We compute the moments of each object

m_1=(100\ kg)(50\ m/s)=5,000\ kg\ m/s

m_2=(50\ kg)(0\ m/s) = 0

The sum of the momenta of both objects prior to the collision is

P=5,000\ kg\ m/s+0\ kg\ m/s

\boxed{ P=5,000\ kg\ m/s}

A circular coil of radius 5.0 cm and resistance 0.20 Ω is placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the c
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Assume number of turn is

N= 1

Radius of coil is.

r = 5cm = 0.05m

Then, Area of the surface is given as

A = πr² = π × 0.05²

A = 7.85 × 10^-3 m²

Resistance of

R = 0.20 Ω

The magnetic field is a function of time

B = 0.50exp(-20t) T

Magnitude of induce current at

t = 2s

We need to find the induced emf

This induced voltage, ε can be quantified by:

ε = −NdΦ/dt

Φ = BAcosθ, but θ = 90°, they are perpendicular

So, Φ = BA

ε = −NdΦ/dt = −N d(BA) / dt

A is a constant

ε = −NA dB/dt

Then, B = 0.50exp(-20t)

So, dB/dt = 0.5 × -20 exp(-20t)

dB/dt = -10exp(-20t)

So,

ε = −NA dB/dt

ε = −NA × -10exp(-20t)

ε = 10 × NA exp(-20t)

Now from ohms law, ε = iR

So, I = ε / R

I = 10 × NA exp(-20t) / R

Substituting the values given

I = 10×1× 7.85 ×10^-3×exp(-20×2)/0.2

I = 1.67 × 10^-18 A

Work out the kinetic energy of a 2.5 kg remote-controlled car that is moving at 2 m/s.
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 5 joules

Explanation:

mass=m=2.5kg

Velocity=v=2m/s

Kinetic energy=ke

ke=(m x v x v)/2

ke=(2.5 x 2 x 2)/2

Ke=10/2

Ke=5

Kinetic energy=5 joules
