A rubber ball is shot straight up from the ground with a speed of 12 m/s. Simultaneously, a second identical rubber ball is drop

ped from rest exactly 7 m directly above the first ball. At what height (in m) do the two balls collide?

Answer:

6.17 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial speed of rubber ball, u=12 m/s

Total height, h=7 m

Initial speed of second ball, u'=0

We have to find the height at which the two balls collide.

Let  first rubber ball and second ball strikes after t time.

For first ball

Distance traveled by first ball in time t

S=ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Substitute the value

S=12t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

S=12t-4.9t^2   ...(1)

Distance traveled by second ball in time t

7-S=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

7-S=4.9t^2  .....(2)

Using equation (2) in equation (1) we get

S=12t-(7-S)

S=12t-7+S

\implies 12t=7

t=\frac{12}{7}sec

Now, using the value of t

S=12(\frac{12}{7})-4.9(\frac{12}{7})^2

S=6.17 m

Hence, at height 6.17 m the two balls collide .

The colour of star depend on its temperature, why?​
taurus [48]

<em>Another key factor that determines a star's colour is its temperature. As stars become hotter, the overall radiated energy increases, and the peak of the curve changes to shorter wavelengths. To put it another way, when a star heats up, the light it produces moves toward the blue end of the spectrum.</em>

A wheel in the shape of a flat, heavy, uniform, solid disk is initially at rest at the top of an inclined plane of height 2.00 m
olasank [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

If friction is neglected, the wheel cannot roll and can only slide frictionlessly and will have the same velocity at the bottom of the ramp as if it had been in free fall as it has converted the same amount of potential energy.

mgh = ½mv²

v = √(2gh) = √(2(9.81)(2.00)) = 6.26418... = 6.26 m/s

However if we do not ignore all friction and the wheel rolls without slipping down the slope, the potential energy becomes linear and rotational kinetic energy

mgh = ½mv² + ½Iω²

mgh = ½mv² + ½(½mR²)(v/R)²

2gh = v² + ½v²

2gh = 3v²/2

v = √(4gh/3) =√(4(9.81)(2.00)/3) = 5.11468... = 5.11 m/s
