A child’s toy that is made to shoot ping pong balls consists of a tube, a spring (k = 18 N/m) and a catch for the spring that ca

n be released to shoot the balls. When a ball is loaded into the tube, it compresses the spring 9.5 cm. If you shoot a ping pong ball straight up out of this toy, how high will it go?

Answer:

The height is 3.1m

Explanation:

Here we have a conservation of energy problem, we have a conversion form eslastic potencial  energy to gravitational potencial energy, so:

E_e=\frac{1}{2}K*x^2\\E_e=\frac{1}{2}18N/m*(9.5*10^{-2}m)^2\\E_e=0.081J

then we have only gravitational potencial energy when the ball is at its maximun height.

E_g=m*g*h

because all the energy was transformed Eg=Ee

h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*m}

searching the web, the mass of a ping pong ball is 2.7 gr in average. so:

h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*(2.7*10^{-3}kg)}\\h=3.1m

givi [52]

Answer:

2.5m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given

distance = 20meters

time = 2 seconds

initial velocity u= 0m/s

let us solve for the final velocity

velocity = distance/time

velocity= 20/2

velocity= 10m/s

v^2=u^2+2as\\\\10^2=0^2+2*a*20\\\\100=40a

divide both sides by 40

a= 100/40\\\\a=10/4\\\\a= 5/2\\\\a= 2.5m/s^2

nadya68 [22]

The gravitation force is 1/6 that of earth, and the ice in the same soft drink would float with 9/10 submerged option (B) is correct.

<h3>What is gravitational force?</h3>

All mass-bearing objects are attracted by gravitational force. Because it consistently attempts to bring masses together rather than push them apart, the gravitational force is referred to as attractive.

As we know, the gravitational force is given by:

\rm F = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G is the gravitational constant.

m1 and m2 are masses.

r is the distance between the masses.

Weight of ice cube = weight of soft drink displaced

mg = ρVg

m = ρV

g does not affect astronauts on earth in a lunar module.

Thus, the gravitation force is 1/6 that of earth, and the ice in the same soft drink would float with 9/10 submerged option (B) is correct.

An astronaut on Earth notes that in her soft drink an ice cube floats with 9/10 of its volume submerged. If she were instead in a lunar module parked on the Moon where the gravitation force is 1/6 that of Earth, the ice in the same soft drink would float:A) with more than 9/10 submerged. B) with 9/10 submerged.C) with 6/10 submerged.D) totally submerged.

A child bounces a 60 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 22 m/s downward to 15 m/s upward.
fgiga [73]

complete question:

A child bounces a 60 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 22 m/s downward to 15 m/s upward. If the contact time with the sidewalk is 1/800 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the superball by the sidewalk

Answer:

F = 1776  N

Explanation:

mass of ball = 60 g = 0.06 kg

velocity of downward direction = 22 m/s = v1

velocity of upward direction = 15 m/s = v2

Δt = 1/800 = 0.00125 s

Linear momentum of a particle with mass and velocity is the product of the mass and it velocity.

p = mv

When a particle move freely and interact with another system within a period of time and again move freely like in this scenario it has a definite change in momentum. This change is defined as Impulse .

I = pf − pi = ∆p

F =  ∆p/∆t  =  I/∆t

let the upward velocity be the positive

Δp =  mv2 - m(-v1)

Δp =  mv2 - m(-v1)

Δp = m (v2 + v1)

Δp = 0.06( 15 + 22)

Δp = 0.06(37)

Δp = 2.22 kg m/s

∆t  = 0.00125

F =  ∆p/∆t

F =  2.22/0.00125

F = 1776  N
