Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has magnitude of 3.7 m/s^2. We want

to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.

Answer:

t = 2.32 s

Explanation:

Applying the equation of motion;

d = ut + 0.5gt^2

Where;

d = distance travelled

u = initial velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time taken

Since the object was dropped;

u = 0

Then,

d = 0.5gt^2

t^2 = d/0.5g

t = √(d/0.5g) .......1

Given

g = 3.7 m/s^2

d = 10 m

Substituting the values;

t = √(10/(0.5×3.7))

t = 2.32 s

Answer:

2.32 s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

s = ut+g't²/2............................ Equation 1

Where s = distance, u = initial velocity, g' = acceleration due to gravity of  the moon, t = time.

Note: Since Onur drops the basket ball from a height, u = 0 m/s

Then,

s = g't²/2

make t the subject of the equation,

t = √(2s/g')...................... Equation 2

Given: s = 10 m, g' = 3.7 m/s²

Substitute this value into equation 2

t = √(2×10/3.7)

t = √(20/3.7)

t = √(5.405)

t = 2.32 s.

A 0.325 g wire is stretched between two points 57.7 cm apart. The tension in the wire is 650 N. Find the frequency of first harm
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

f = 931.1 Hz

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the wire, m = 0.325 g

Length of the stretch, L = 57.7 cm = 0.577 m

Tension in the wire, T = 650 N

Frequency for the first harmonic = ?

we know,

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

μ is the mass per unit length

μ = 0.325 x 10⁻³/ 0.577

μ = 0.563 x 10⁻³ Kg/m

now,

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{650}{0.563\times 10^{-3}}}

   v = 1074.49 m/s

The wire is fixed at both ends. Nodes occur at fixed ends.

For First harmonic when there is a node at each end and the longest possible wavelength will have condition

          λ=2 L

          λ=2 x 0.577 = 1.154 m

we now,

       v = f λ

      f = \dfrac{v}{\lambda}

      f = \dfrac{1074.49}{1.154}

             f = 931.1 Hz

The frequency for first harmonic is equal to f = 931.1 Hz

A ball is thrown straight up in the air. For which situations are both the instantaneous velocity and the acceleration zero? (Se
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Therefore, the situation in which both the instantaneous velocity and acceleration become zero, is the situation when the ball reaches the highest point of its motion.

Explanation:

When a ball is thrown upward under the free fall action of gravity, it starts to loose its Kinetic Energy as it moves upward. As the ball moves in upward direction, its kinetic energy gradually converts into its potential energy. As a result the speed of the ball starts to decrease as it moves up. Therefore, at the highest point during its motion, the velocity of ball becomes zero and it stops at the highest point for a moment, and then it starts to fall back down, under the influence of gravitational force.

Therefore, the situation in which both the instantaneous velocity and acceleration become zero, is the situation <u>when the ball reaches the highest point of its motion.</u>
