Answer:
a) the distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction is 1.55 m
b) the distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
c) the distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.2 m
d) the distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
Explanation:
Given that;
height of the ramp h1 = 0.40 m
foot of the ramp above the floor h2 = 1.50 m
assuming R = 15 mm = 0.015 m
density of steel = 7.8 g/cm³
density of aluminum = 2.7 g/cm³
a) distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction;
we know that
distance = speed × time
d = vt --------let this be equ 1
according to the law of conservation of energy
mgh₁ = mv²
v² = 2gh₁
v = √(2gh₁)
from the second equation; s = ut + at²
that is; t = √(2h₂/g)
so we substitute for equations into equation 1
d = √(2gh₁) × √(2h₂/g)
d = √(2gh₁) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 2√( h₁h₂ )
we plug in our values
d = 2√( 0.40 × 1.5 )
d = 1.55 m
Therefore, the distance that the solid steel sphere sliding down the ramp without friction is 1.55 m
b)
distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping;
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1;
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.69√( h₁h₂ )
we substitute our values
d = 1.69√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.31 m
Therefore, the distance that a solid steel sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
c)
distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping;
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1 again
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.549√( h₁h₂ )
d = 1.549√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.2 m
Therefore, the distance that a spherical steel shell with shell thickness 1.0 mm rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.2 m
d) distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping.
we know that;
mgh₁ = mv² +
ω²
mgh₁ = mv² +
(
mR²) ω²
v = √( gh₁ )
so we substitute √( gh₁ ) for v and t = √(2h₂/g) in equation 1;
d = vt
d = √( gh₁ ) × √(2h₂/g)
d = 1.69√( h₁h₂ )
we substitute our values
d = 1.69√( 0.4 × 1.5 )
d = 1.31 m
Therefore, the distance that a solid aluminum sphere rolling down the ramp without slipping is 1.31 m
Answer:
20cm
Explanation:
A convex lens has a positive focal length and the object placed in front of it produce both virtual and real image <em>(image distance can be negative or positive depending on the nature of the image</em>).
According to the lens equation
where;
f is the focal length of the lens
u is the object distance
v is the image distance
If the magnification is - 0.6
mag = v/u = -0.5
v = -0.5u
since v = 10cm
10 = -0.5u
u = -10/0.5
u =-20 cm
Substitute u = -20cm ( due to negative magnification)and v = 10cm into the lens formula to get the focal length f
Hence the focal length of the convex lens is 20cm
