A juggler is practicing with one ball. It takes 2.4 seconds for the ball to leave her hand and return to her hand. How fast did

The kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Given parameters

  • Time t = 2.4 s

To find

  • Initial velocity

Kinematics is the part of physics that establishes the relationships between the position, velocity, and acceleration of bodies.

In this case we have a vertical launch

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

Where y and y₀ are the final and initial positions, respectively, v₀ the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²) and t the time

   

With the ball in hand, its position is zero

         0 = 0 + v₀ t - ½ g t²

         v₀ t - ½ g t² = 0

         v₀ = ½ g t

Let's calculate

         v₀ = ½ 9.8 2.4

         v₀ = 11.76 m / s

In conclusion using kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

) The centre of a mass, m, is at a distance, r, from the centre of a larger mass M. Assuming there are no other masses present,
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

U = - G m M / r

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the expression

         U = - G m₁ m₂ / r

dodne G is the gravitational cosntnate (G = 6.67 10⁻¹¹¹), m and m are the mass of the bodies involved

subtype the given values

         U = - G m M / r

The time period T of a simple pendulum is given by the relation
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

T^2 \propto L

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

From this equation we can write

T\propto \sqrt{L}\\T\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{g}}

Taking the square of this equation, we get:

T^2 = (2\pi)^2 \frac{L}{g}

So we see that T^2 is proportional to L and inversely proportional to g. So, we can write:

T^2 \propto L\\T^2 \propto \frac{1}{g}

So the only correct option is

T^2 \propto L
