5.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of baseball = 0.15kg

Momentum of baseball = 0.78kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of baseball = ?

Solution:

The momentum of the baseball is a function of the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity:

Momentum = mass x velocity

Since the speed of the ball is unknown:

Velocity = $\frac{momentum }{mass}$

= $\frac{0.78}{0.15}$

= 5.2m/s

The speed of the baseball before it lands is 5.2m/s

A 1.50-mm-diameter glass sphere has a charge of + 1.60 nC. What speed does an electron need to orbit the sphere 1.60 mm above th

saveliy_v [14]

Answer :

Velocity will be $3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given glass surface has a diameter of 1.5 mm

And charge q = 1.60 nC

Radius of electrons orbit r = height of electron above surface + radius of sphere = $=1.6+\frac{1.5}{2}=2.35mm = 0.00235m$

Force on electron is given by $F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}$ , here q is charge on sphere and e is charge on electron

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}=\frac{kqe}{r^2}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.00235^2}=4.172\times 10^{-13}N$

This force work as centripetal force

So $F=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$4.172\times 10^{-13}=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2}{0.00235}$

v = $=0.0328\times 10^{-9}=3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

Which of the following has the largest momentum?

san4es73 [151]

Momentum = mass x velocity

Thus Option A is the correct answer

Momentum (dog) = 10 kg x (0.447 x 30) m/s

= 134.1 Kg m/s

Momentum ( bullet) = 0.02 kg x (0.447 x 800) m/s

= 7.152 Kg m/s

Momentum ( truck) = 0, as v = 0

tightrope has both low mass and low speed, thus its momentum will be low

Ccording to coulomb's law, which pair of charged particles has the lowest potential energy? according to coulomb's law, which pa

Sladkaya [172]

Coulombs law says that the force between any two charges depends on the amount of charges and distance between them. This force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between them.

$F=k\frac{|q_1| |q_2|}{r^2}$

where $q_1\hspace{1mm}and\hspace{1mm}q_2$ are charges, $r$ is the distance between them and k is the coulomb constant.

case 1:

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+3e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||3e|}{(100pm)^2}=3ke^2\times10^8$

case 2

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+2e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||2e|}{(100pm)^2}=2ke^2\times10^8$

case 3:

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||e|}{(200pm)^2}=0.25ke^2\times10^8$

Comparing the 3 cases:

The maximum potential force according to coulombs law is between -1 charge and +3 charge separated by a distance of 100 pm.

A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,

shusha [124]

Answer:

$v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

$U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}$

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

$U_{0}=K_{f}$

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

$U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}$

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

$K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}$

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

$=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}$

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

$kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}$

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

$v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$
