As soon as a bowling ball rolls off the edge of a table its horizontal component of velocity

Physics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

B) Remains constant

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two separate motions:

- A horizontal motion with constant velocity, since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance)

- A vertical motion with constant acceleration, due to the presence of the force of gravity (pointing downward), that accelerates the ball towards the ground with acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2.

We are only interested in the horizontal motion of the ball: we said that there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction, therefore the horizontal component of the the velocity of the ball is constant.

Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? explain.
choli [55]

Answer

Hi,

The forces are; weight (gravity), Normal/centripetal force and friction. Force due to gravity is constant where as friction and centripetal are not.

Explanation

Weight is constant, given by the force of gravity on the object. The centripetal force is a function of the angles occurring between the velocity vector and the weight vector that is at right angle with the perpendicular line drawn from the surface. Friction is a function of the centripetal force thus it also varies.

Hope this helps!

Explain how waves, energy, and matter are related
Stels [109]

Answer:

Mechanical waves need matter to transfer energy while electromagnetic waves do not. ... Waves change direction when they move from one material into another (matter) through the process of refraction. The wave will change direction when the speed of the wave changes.

A 6.99-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +341 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s
Ratling [72]

Answer:

a). 1.218 m/s

b). R=2.8^{-3}

Explanation:

m_{bullet}=6.99g*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=6.99x10^{-3}kg

v_{bullet}=341\frac{m}{s}

Momentum of the motion the first part of the motion have a momentum that is:

P_{1}=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}

P_{1}=6.99x10^{-3}kg*341\frac{m}{s} \\P_{1}=2.3529

The final momentum is the motion before the action so:

a).

P_{2}=m_{b1}*v_{fbullet}+(m_{b2}+m_{bullet})*v_{f}}

P_{2}=1.202 kg*0.554\frac{m}{s}+(1.523kg+6.99x10^{-3}kg)*v_{f}

P_{1}=P_{2}

2.529=0.665+(1.5299)*v_{f}\\v_{f}=\frac{1.864}{1.5299}\\v_{f}=1.218 \frac{m}{s}

b).

kinetic energy

K=\frac{1}{2}*m*(v)^{2}

Kinetic energy after

Ka=\frac{1}{2}*1.202*(0.554)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*1.523*(1.218)^{2}\\Ka=1.142 J

Kinetic energy before

Kb=\frac{1}{2}*mb*(vf)^{2}\\Kb=\frac{1}{2}*6.99x10^{-3}kg*(341)^{2}\\Kb=406.4J

Ratio =\frac{Ka}{Kb}

R=\frac{1.14}{406.4}\\R=2.8x10^{-3}
