Janelle stands on a balcony, two stories above Michael. She throws one ball straight up and one ball straight down, but both wit

h the same initial speed. Eventually each ball passes Michael. Which ball, if either, is moving faster when it passes Michael? Explain.

Answer:

Both balls have the same speed.

Explanation:

Janelle throws the two balls from the same height, with the same speed. Both balls will have the same potential and kinetic energy. Energy must be conserved. When the balls pass Michael, again they must have the same potential and kinetic energy.

A force causes a mass of 4 kg to have an acceleration of 8 m/s2. Suppose something causes the mass to be one-quarter of its orig
solniwko [45]

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F = ma

Given that m = 4 kg and a = 8 m/s²:

F = (4 kg) (8 m/s²)

F = 32 N

If m is reduced to 1 kg and F stays at 32 N:

32 N = (1 kg) a

a = 32 m/s²

So the acceleration increases by a factor of 4.

A loaded barge has a mass of 1 500 000 kg and is traveling at 3 m/s. If a tugboat applies an opposing force of 12 000 N for 10 s
yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s

The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 =  4.38e6 kg•m/s

The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s

The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.

The initial barge momentum will be zero in

t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds

To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply

4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N

2. A ball tied to a pole by a rope swings in a circular path with a centripetal acceleration of 2.7 m/s. If the ball has a
Helga [31]

Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m

Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.

Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2

Tangential speed = 2.0m/s

Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7

= 1.48m

Diameter = radius*2

= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.

a tank circuit contains a capacitor and an inductor that produce 30 of reactance at the resonant frequency. the inductor has a q
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The total circuit current at the resonant frequency is 0.61 amps

What is a LC Circuit?

  • A capacitor and an inductor, denoted by the letters "C" and "L," respectively, make up an LC circuit, also referred to as a tank circuit, a tuned circuit, or a resonant circuit.
  • These circuits are used to create signals at particular frequencies or to receive signals from more complicated signals at particular frequencies.

Q =15 = (wL)/R

wL = 30 ohms = Xl

R = 2 ohms

Zs = R + jXl = 2 +j30 ohms where Zs is the series LR impedance

| Zs | = 30.07 <86.2° ohms

Xc = 1/(wC) = 30 ohms

The impedance of the LC circuit is found from:

Zp = (Zs)(-jXc)/( Zs -jXc)

Zp = (2+j30)(-j30)/(2 + j30-j30) = (900 -j60)2 = 450 -j30 = 451 < -3.81°

I capacitor = 277/-j30 = j9.23 amps

I Zs = 277/(2 +j30) = (554 - j8,310)/904 = 0.61 - j9.19 amps

I net = I cap + I Zs = 0.61 + j0.04 amps = 0.61 < 3.75° amps

Hence, the total circuit current at the resonant frequency is 0.61 amps
