A bowling ball of mass 5.8 kg moves in a straight line at 4.34 m/s How fast must a Ping-Pong ball of mass 2.214 g move in a stra

lilavasa [31]

Answer: 11369.46 m/s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$m_{1}=5.8 kg$ is the mass of the bowling ball

$V_{1}=4.34 m/s$ is the velocity of the bowling ball

$m_{2}=2.214 g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.002214 kg$ is the mass of the ping-pong ball

$V_{2}$ is the velocity of the ping-pong ball

Now, the momentum $p_{1}$ of the bowling ball is:

$p_{1}=m_{1}V_{1}$ (1)

$p_{1}=(5.8 kg)(4.34 m/s)$

$p_{1}=25.172 kg m/s$ (2)

And the momentum $p_{2}$ of the ping-pong ball is:

$p_{2}=m_{2}V_{2}$ (3)

If the momentum of the bowling ball is equal to the momentum of the ping-pong ball:

$p_{1}=p_{2}$ (4)

$m_{1}V_{1}=m_{2}V_{2}$ (5)

Isolating $V_{2}$ :

$V_{2}=\frac{m_{1}V_{1}}{m_{2}}$ (6)

$V_{2}=\frac{25.172 kg m/s}{0.002214 kg}$ (7)

Finally:

$V_{2}=11369.46 m/s$

A weight suspended from a spring is seen to bob up and down over a total distance of 20 centimeters twice each second.

Zielflug [23.3K]

<u>Answer</u>

8. 2 Hz

9. 0.5 seconds

10. 20 cm

<u>Explanation</u>

Frequency is the number of oscillation in a unit time. It is the rate at which something repeats itself in a second.

In this case, the spring bob up and down 2 times per second.

∴ Frequency = 2 Hz

Period is the time taken to complete one oscillation.

2 oscillations takes 1 second

1 oscillation = 1/2 seconds.

∴ Period = 0.5 seconds

Amplitude is the the maximum displacement of the spring.

In this case the spring bob up 20 cm. This is it's displacement.

∴ Amplitude = 20 cm

Density is a physical property that relates the mass of a substance to its volume. A. Calculate the density, in g/mL , of a liqu

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

A) 0.660 g/ml

B) 1.297 ml

C) 0.272 g

Explanation:

Every substance, body or material has mass and volume, however the mass of different substances occupy different volumes. This is where density $D$ appears as a physical characteristic property of matter that establishes a relationship between the mass $m$ of a body or substance and the volume $V$ it occupies:

$D=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2 /><h2>Answer A:</h2>

Here the mass is $m=0.155g$ and th volume $V=0.000235L=0.235mL$

Solving (1) with these values:

$D=\frac{0.155g}{0.235mL}$ (2)

$D=0.660g/mL$ (3)

<h2>Answer B:</h2>

In this case the mass of a sample is $m=4.71g$ and its density is $D=3.63g/mL$ .

Isolating $V$ from (1):

$V=\frac{m}{D}$ (4)

$V=\frac{4.71g}{3.63g/mL}$ (5)

$V=1.297mL$ (5)

<h2>Answer C:</h2>

In this case the volume of a sample is $V=0.293mL$ and its density is $D=0.930g/mL$ .

Isolating $m$ from (1):

$m=D.V$ (6)

$m=(0.930g/mL)(0.293mL)$ (7)

$m=0.272g$ (8)

If a diver displace water with a weight of 500N what is the upthrust on the diver?

ki77a [65]

Answer:

500 N

Explanation:

Natural bouyency will keep the diver in the same place, no matter what the mass of gfs. This means if the diver is displacing with a weight of 500 N, the upthrust will also be 500 N.
