A 12 g plastic ball is dropped from a height of 2.5 m and is moving at 3.2 m/s just before it hits the floor. How much mechanica
1 answer:
Answer:
0.24
Explanation:
Mass of ball= 12g=0.012Kg
height of ball= 2.5m
velocity of ball before falling= 3.2m/s
potential energy of the ball=mgh= 0.012*10*2.5=0.3J
kinetic energy of the ball=0.5*m=0.5*0.012*3.2*3.2=0.6J
Loss in mechanical energy during the fall= potential energy- Kinetic energy= 0.3-0.06=0.24J
note: During the fall, the potential energy of the ball is converted to kinetic energy. the loss in energy is due to air resistance.

It is given that,
Magnitude of charge,
It moves in northeast direction with a speed of 5 m/s, 25 degrees East of a magnetic field.
Magnetic field,
Velocity,
We need to find the magnitude of force on the charge. Magnetic force is given by :
<em>Since</em>,
So, the force acting on the charge is and is moving in positive z axis. Hence, this is the required solution.
