A 5.0-g marble is released from rest in the deep end of a swimming pool. An underwater video reveals that its terminal speed in

the water is 0.30 m/s. (a) What is the acceleration of the marble at the instant it is released? (b) What is the acceleration of the marble when it has reached its terminal speed? (c) How long does it take the marble to reach half its terminal speed?

Answer:

a) a = -g = 9.8 m/s² , b) a = 0 m/s² and c)   t1 = 0.0213 s

Explanation:

a) At the moment the marble is released its velocity is zero, so it has no resistance force, the only force acting is its weight, so the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

       a = -g = 9.8 m / s²

b) When the marble goes its terminal velocity all forces have been equalized, therefore, the sum of them is zero and consequently if acceleration is also zero

      a = 0 m / s²

c) We have to assume a specific type of resistive force, for liquid in general the resistive force is proportional to the speed of the body.

The expression of this situation is

         v = mg / b (1 -e^{-bt/m} )

For a very long time the exponential is zero, so the terminal velocity is

        v_{T} = mg / b

        b = mg /  v_{T}

        b = 5 10-3 9.8 / 0.3

        b = 0.163

We already have all the data to calculate the time for v = ½ v_{T}

        ½ v_{T} = v_{T} (1 -e^{-bt/m})

        ½ = 1- e (- 0.163 t1 / 5 10-3)

        e (-32.6 t1) = 1-0.5              (by  ln())

       -32.6 t1 = ln 0.5

       t1 = -1 / 32.6 (-0.693)

       t1 = 0.0213 s

A car starts from rest and after 20 seconds it's velocity becomes 108km find the acceleration of the car
andre [41]

Answer:

1.5 km/s²

Explanation:

Given that:

a car starts from rest; it means the initial velocity (u) = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

after time (t) = 20 seconds

the final velocity = 108 km/hr = 30 m/s

The acceleration (a) of the car can be determined by using the formula:

a = \dfrac{v-u}{t}

a = \dfrac{30\  m/s -0 \ m/s}{20 \ s}

a = \dfrac{30 \  m/s}{20 \ s}

a = 1.5 km/s²

In a pool game, the cue ball, which has an initial speed of 3.0 m/s, make an elastic collision with the eight ball, which is ini
zhenek [66]

Explanation:

Given

initial speed(u)=3 m/s

mass of each ball is m

Let the cue ball is moving in x direction initially

In elastic collision Energy and momentum is conserved

Let u be the initial velocity and v_1 , v_2 be the final velocity of 8 ball and cue ball respectively

\frac{mu^2}{2}+0=\frac{mv^2_1}{2}+\frac{mv^2_2}{2}

The angle after which cue ball is deflected is given by

\theta _1=90-40=50^{\circ}

Conserving momentum in x direction

mu=mv_1cos40+mv_2cos50

3=v_1cos40+v_2cos50

Along Y axis

0+0=v_1sin40-v_2sin50

v_1sin40=v_2sin50

substitute the value of v_1

we get v_2=1.912 m/s

v_1=2.27 m/s
