Answer:

Terminal speed= 1,826.51m/s

Explanation:

Volume of a sphere is given by: V=4/3pir^3

Where r is radius of sphere

V=4×3.142×(8)^2/3

V= 2144.66cm^3

Converting to meters

V=2144.66cm^3×(1m^3/ 1×10^-6cm^3)

V= 2.145×10^-3m^3

Area of sphereA= pi(8)^2

A= 3.142×64=210.6cm^3

Converting to meter

201cm^×(1m/10000cm^2)

A=0.0210m^2

Given:

Density of shere= 1.00kg/m^3

Drag coefficient =0.500

Mass of sphere=?

Density of sphere= mass of sphere / volume of shere

Mass= 2144.66cm^3×1.00kgcm^3

Mass= 2144.66kg

Terminal speed,VT= Sqrt(2mg)/(DpA)

VT= Sqrt( 2×( 2144.66)×9.8))/(0.500×1.20×0.021)

VT= Sqrt(42035.34/0.0126)

VT=Sqrt(3,336,137.78)

VT= 1,826.51m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

m = p_sphere*V A = pi*r^2 v_t= sqrt(2mg/Dp_airA)

The Attempt at a Solution

m = (870 kg/m^3)(4/3)pi(0.085 m)^3 = 2.24 kg

A = pi(0.085 m)^2 = 0.0227 m^2 v_t = sqrt[2(2.24 kg)(9.80 m/s^2)/(0.500)(1.20 kg/m^3)(0.0227 m^3)] = 56.8 m/s

<h2><u>Projectile</u><u> </u><u>motion</u><u>:</u></h2>

<em>If</em><em> </em><em>an</em><em> </em><em>object is given an initial velocity</em><em> </em><em>in any direction and then allowed</em><em> </em><em>to travel freely under gravity</em><em>, </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>called a projectile motion</em><em>. </em>

It is basically 3 types.

  1. horizontally projectile motion
  2. oblique projectile motion
  3. included plane projectile motion

Rolling friction .<span> the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object</span>
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction
