Kyle, a 95.0 kg football player, leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.

430 kg ball precisely at the peak of his jump, when he is 0.589 meters off the ground. He hits the ground 0.0409 meters away from where he leapt. If the ball was moving horizontally when it was caught, how fast was the ball traveling?

Answer:

The initial speed of the ball was 26.2 m/s

Explanation:

When the football player is in the air at his maximum height the vertical component of velocity is zero, To obtain the horizontal velocity when the player catches the ball we need to apply the linear momentum conservation theorem:

m_1*v_{o1}+m_2*v_{o2}=m_t*v_f\\0.430kg*(v)+m_2*(0)=mt*vt

we need to obtain the time taken to go down.

y=Y_o+v_o*t-\frac{1}{2}g*t^2\\\\0=0.589-4.9t^2\\solving:\\t_1=0.346s\\

We have a horizontal displacement and the time taken to stop, so:

v_f=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.0409m}{0.346s}=0.118m/s

so:

0.430kg*(v)+m_2*(0)=(m1+m2)*vt\\v=\frac{(95.0kg+0.430kg)*0.118m/s}{0.430kg}\\\\v=26.2m/s

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter  pipe

A 1,000 kg car is travelling at 6.5 m/s to the North. A 3,500 kg truck is travelling South at the same velocity. What is the tot
Molodets [167]

Answer:

16250 kgm/s due south

Explanation:

Applying,

M = mv................. Equation 1

Where M = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity.

From the car,

Given: m = 1000 kg, v = 6.5 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M = 1000(6.5)

M = 6500 kgm/s

For the truck,

Given: m = 3500 kg, v = 6.5 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M' = 3500(6.5)

M' = 22750 kgm/s.

Assuming South to be negative direction,

From the question,

Total momentum of the two vehicles = (6500-22750)

Total momentum of the two vehicles = -16250 kgm/s

Hence the total momentum of the two vehicles is 16250 kgm/s due south
