A lead ball is dropped into a lake from a diving board 16.0 ft above the water. It hits the water with a certain velocity and th

en sinks to the bottom with this same constant velocity. If it reaches the bottom 5.30 s after it is dropped, how deep is the lake (in feet)?

Answer:

138.46 ft

Explanation:

When the ball is dropped until the moment it hits the water, the ball moves in a uniform acceleration motion. Therefore, the equation that describes the movement of the ball is:

X = \frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}  + V_{0} *t + x_0

Where X is the distance that the ball has fallen at a time t. V_0 is the initial velocity, which is 0 ft/s as the ball was simply dropped. x_0 is the initial position, we will say that this value is 0 in the position where the ball was dropped for simplicity, and it increases as the ball is falling. Now, we replace x with 16 feets and solves for t:

16 ft = \frac{1}{2} * 32.2 \frac{ft}{s^{2}} *t^{2} +0 \frac{ft}{s} * t + 0 ft

t = \sqrt{2* \frac{16 ft}{32.2 \frac{ft}{s^2}}} = 1 s

The velocity that the ball will have at the moment the ball that the ball hits the water will be:

V = V_o+g*t=0\frac{ft}{s}+32.2\frac{ft}{s^2}*1s =32.2\frac{ft}{s}

The time that will take the ball to reach the bottom from the top of the lake will be t = 5.3s - 1s = 4.3s. And as the ball will travel with constant velocity equal to 32.2 ft/s^2, the depth of the lake will be:

d = v*t = 32.2\frac{ft}{s}  * 4.3s = 138.46 ft

AfilCa [17]
<span>2.5 m/s going upward.
   In the situation described, Erica and Danny undergo a non-elastic collision which will conserve their combined momentum. Since Erica is stationary, her momentum is 0. And since Danny is moving upward at 4.7 m/s his momentum is 43 kg * 4.7 m/s = 202.1 kg*m/s. Assuming that both Erica and Danny will be moving as a joined system, their combined mass is 38 kg + 43 kg = 81 kg. Since the momentum will be the same, their velocity will be 202.1 kg*m/s / 81 kg = 2.495061728 m/s. Since we only have 2 significant figures in the provided data, rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives a velocity of 2.5 m/s going upward.</span>

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction to Jupiter exerts on IO
kotegsom [21]

The gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

<h3>What is Newton's law of gravitation?</h3>

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

Given data;

Mass of Jupiter,\rm m_j = 1.9 \times 10^{27} \ kg

Mass of moon of Jupiter,\rm m_{i_0}= 8.9 \times 10^{22} \ kg]

The gravitational constant is,\rm G =  6.67 \times 10^{-11 } \ m^3  kg^{-1}  s^{-2}

Distance between Jupiter and Io, R = 421,700 km = 4,217,00,000 m

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.

The gravitational force is found as;

\rm F = G \frac{ m_J m_{I_0}}{R^2} \\\\\ F = (6.67\times 10^{-11}) \frac{( (1.9\times 10^{27})\times (8.9\times 10^{22} )} { (421700000)^2}\\\\ F_g = 6.343 \times 10^{22} \  N

Hence, the gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

The complete question is

"Jupiter has a mass of 1.9 × 1027 kg, and its moon Io has a mass of 8.9 × 1022 kg. Their centers are separated by a distance of 421,700 km what is the force of gravity acting on Io? "
