Answer: (displacement/delta x) = -50. m, and distance dropped = 50. m (50. m below the starting location)

Explanation:

We know that the initial velocity of the tuna can is 0 m/s, as it is at rest. Also, we have the acceleration caused by gravity (-9.8 m/s^2). The time for the trip is 3.2 s. We need to find the displacement, or delta x.

To do this, we need to use a freefall equation. The one we can use with initial velocity, time, and acceleration would be the following:

d = (initial velocity)(time) + (1/2)(acceleration caused by gravity)(time)^2

d = (vi)(t) + 1/2(g)(t)^2

d = (0 m/s)(3.2 s) + 1/2(-9.8 m/s^2)(3.2 s)^2

d = 1/2(-9.8 m/s^2)(3.2 s)^2

d = -4.9(3.2)^2

d = -4.9(10.24)

d = -50.176 = -50. m

You drop a 14-g ball from a height of 1.5 m and it only bounces back to a height of 0.85 m. what was the total impulse on the ba

Allisa [31]

Remember that impulse = change in momentum

this means we compute the momentum of the ball just before impression and just after; we know the mass, so we find the speeds

the ball falls for 1.5m and will achieve a speed given by energy conservation:

1/2 mv^2 = mgh => v=sqrt[2gh]=5.42m/s

since it rises only to 0.85 m, we compute the initial speed after power from the same equation and get
v(after)=sqrt[2*9.81m/s/s*0.85m] = 4.0837 m...

now, recall that momentum is a vector, so that the momentum down has one sign and the momentum up has a positive sign, so we have

impulse = delta (mv) = m delta v = 0.014 kx (4.08m/s - (-5.42m/s) = 0.133 kgm/s

Answer:

Weight (mass) = 16.5 kg

velocity = 0 m/a

acceleration =2.6 m/s^2

displacement = 13.2m

now,

acceleration = velocity/ time
