To test the quality of a tennis ball, you drop it onto a floor from a height of 4.00m . It rebounds to a height of 2.00 m. If th

e ball is in contact with the floor for 12.0ms,
(a) What is the magnitude of its average acceleration during the contact?
(b) is the acceleration up or down?

Answer:

Part a)

a = 1210.3 m/s^2

Part b)

Since it rebounds upwards so it's acceleration is in upwards direction

Explanation:

Velocity of the ball just before it will collide with the floor when it is dropped from height 4.00 m

So we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

v_1^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(4.00)

v_1 = 8.86 m

When ball rebound to height h = 2.00 m

so here we have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a d

0 - v_2^2 = 2(-9.81)(2.00)

v_2 = 6.26 m/s

Part a)

For magnitude of average acceleration

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

a = \frac{6.26 - (-8.86)}{12\times 10^{-3}}

a = 1210.3 m/s^2

Part b)

Since it rebounds upwards so it's acceleration is in upwards direction

In this problem, we apply the equation regarding  kinematics  expressed as  vf^2 = v0^2 + 2as  vf eventually becomes zero because the ball stops in the end. a = -9.8 m/s2s = 2 metres this time 
This gives initial velocity, vo equal to 6.26m/s 
now 6.26-(-8.85) = 15.11m/s 

change in velocity/change in time = average acceleration 15.11/(12/1000) = 1259.167 m/s^2

If a bullet travels at 593.0 m/s, what is its speed in miles per hour?
Ksenya-84 [330]

We have 1 \; mile = 1609.34\; meters. So, 1 \; meter = \frac{1}{1609.34} \;mile.

1 \; hour = 3600 \; s. So 1 \; s = \frac{1}{3600}  \; hour.

Thus we can convert the units of the given quantity.

That is,

593\;m/s=593\;\frac{1/1609.34}{1/3600} \;miles/hour\\
593\;m/s=1,326.51\;miles/hour.

The quantity is converted to the required units.

Magnesium is a shiny, flexible metal that can be burned in the presence of air.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

A new substance was formed

Explanation:

According to this question, a shiny and flexible metal called Magnesium (Mg) is burnt in air to produce a white powder that has no shiny or flexible properties, however, has more weight than the magnesium metal itself.

This is possible because a CHEMICAL CHANGE has occured, hence, a new substance has been formed. The formation of a new substance during the burning process (chemical reaction), induced the increase in mass.

A 2.00-m rod of negligible mass connects two very small objects at its ends. The mass of one object is 1.00 kg and the mass of t
8090 [49]

Answer:

<h2> 4kg</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

length of rod=2m

mass of object 1 m1=1kg

let the unknown mass be x

center of mass<em> c.m</em>= 1.6m

hence 1kg is 1.6m from the <em>c.m</em>

and x is 0.4m from the <em>c.m</em>

Taking moment about the <em>c.m</em>

<em>clockwise moment equals anticlockwise moments</em>

1*1.6=x*0.4

1.6=0.4x

divide both sides by 0.4 we have

x=1.6/0.4

x=4kg

The mass of the other object is 4kg
