Describe the rise and fall of a basketball using the concepts of kinetic energy and potential energy

Physics

Colt1911 [192]3 years ago

The equilibrium of the basketball makes it bounce lower every time. If it had perfect equilibrium, then it would bounce up to the same height every time. The kinetic energy is from when the ball hits the ground and is bouncing back up. But gravity will soon make it potential when it stays on the ground and when it stops rolling. When it rolls, the kinetic energy keeps it rolling until it gets so weak, there is only potential energy left to keep it stat

A student walks 350 m [S], then 400 m [E20°N], and finally 550 m [N10°W]. Using the component method, find the resultant (total)
levacccp [35]

In component form, the displacement vectors become

• 350 m [S]   ==>   (0, -350) m

• 400 m [E 20° N]   ==>   (400 cos(20°), 400 sin(20°)) m

(which I interpret to mean 20° north of east]

• 550 m [N 10° W]   ==>   (550 cos(100°), 550 sin(100°)) m

Then the student's total displacement is the sum of these:

(0 + 400 cos(20°) + 550 cos(100°), -350 + 400 sin(20°) + 550 sin(100°)) m

≈ (280.371, 328.452) m

which leaves the student a distance of about 431.8 m from their starting point in a direction of around arctan(328.452/280.371) ≈ 50° from the horizontal, i.e. approximately 431.8 m [E 50° N].
