During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.148 kg baseball crashing through the pane

of a second-floor window in a nearby building. The ball strikes the glass at 14.5 m/s , shatters the glass as it passes through, and leaves the window at 11.5 m/s with no change of direction.
What is the direction of the impulse that the glass imparts to the baseball? Calculate the magnitude of this impulse (a positive number)?

Explanation:

Mass of baseball, m = 0.148 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 14.5 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = 11.5 m/s

After crashing through the pane of a second-floor window, the ball shatters the glass as it passes through, and leaves the window at 11.5 m/s with no change of direction. So, the direction of the impulse that the glass imparts to the baseball is in opposite direction to the direction of the balls path.

The change in momentum of the ball is called impulse. It is given by :

J=m(v-u)\\\\J=0.148\times (11.5-14.5) \\\\J=-0.444\ kg-m/s\\\\|J|=0.444\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. Surface tension allows insects, usually denser than water, to float and slide on a water surface.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

a. F = Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)] b.  h =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)R/√[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

Explanation:

a. What is the magnitude of the net upward force on the sphere as a function of the height z above the disk?

The electric field due to a charged disk with surface charge density s and radius R at a distance z above the center of the disk is given by

E = s/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)]

So, the net force on the small plastic sphere of mass M and charge Q is

F = QE

F = Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)]

b. At what height h does the sphere hover?

The sphere hovers at height z = h when the electric force equals the weight of the sphere.

So, F = mg

Qs/2ε₀[1 - z/√(z² + R²)] = mg

when z = h, we have

Qs/2ε₀[1 - h/√(h² + R²)] = mg

[1 - h/√(h² + R²)] = 2mgε₀/Qs

h/√(h² + R²) = 1 - 2mgε₀/Qs

squaring both sides, we have

[h/√(h² + R²)]² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²

h²/(h² + R²) = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²

cross-multiplying, we have

h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²(h² + R²)

expanding the bracket, we have

h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²h² + (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

collecting like terms, we have

h² - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

Factorizing, we have

[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]h² = (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²

So, h² =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²/[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

taking square-root of both sides, we have

√h² =  √[(1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²R²/[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]]

h =  (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)R/√[1 - (1 - 2mgε₀/Qs)²]

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

v \approx 9.312\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The Free Body Diagram of the system is presented in the image attached below. The final speed is determined by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

K_{A} + U_{g,A} = K_{B} + U_{g,B} + W_{loss}

K_{B} = K_{A} + U_{g,A}-U_{g,B} - W_{loss}

\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2} = m\cdot g \cdot s\cdot \sin \theta - \mu_{k}\cdot m \cdot g \cdot s \cos \theta

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = g\cdot s \cdot (\sin \theta - \mu_{k}\cdot \cos \theta)

v = \sqrt{2\cdot g \cdot s \cdot (\sin \theta - \mu_{k}\cdot \cos \theta)}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (10\,m)\cdot (\sin 37^{\textdegree} - 0.2\cdot \cos 37^{\textdegree})}

v \approx 9.312\,\frac{m}{s}
