Answer:
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the golf ball, m = 46 g = 0.046 kg
Terminal speed of the ball, v = 44 m/s
The drag force,
Where, C is the drag coefficient. At terminal speed, the weight of the ball is balanced by the drag force.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
v = 2.94 m/s
Explanation:
When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.
Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.
Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means
(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2
kx^2 = mv^2
v^2 = (kx^2)/m
v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)
v = x * sqrt(k/m)
v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215) <--- units converted to m and kg
v = 2.94 m/s

A car traveling south with its cruise control set
Explanation:
Turning could cause anything to slow down but going forward could mean that anything could go faster.
To find the ratio of planetary speeds Va/Vb we need the orbital velocity formula:
V=√({G*M}/R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the distant star and R is the distance of the planet from the star it is orbiting.
So Va/Vb=[√( {G*M}/Ra) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb) ], in our case Ra = 7.8*Rb
Va/Vb=[ √( {G*M}/{7.8*Rb} ) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb )], we put everything under one square root by the rule: (√a) / (√b) = √(a/b)
Va/Vb=√ [ { (G*M)/(7.8*Rb) } / { (G*M)/(Rb) } ], when we cancel out G, M and Rb we get:
Va/Vb=√(1/7.8)/(1/1)=√(1/7.8)=0.358 so the ratio of Va/Vb = 0.358.
