You drop two balls of equal diameter from the same height at the same time. Ball 1 is made of metal and has a greater mass than

ball 2, which is made of wood. The upward force due to air resistance is the same for both balls. Is the drop time of ball 1 greater than, less than, or equal to the drop time of ball 2? Explain why

Answer:

The drop time ball 1 is less than the drop time of ball 2. A further explanation is provided below.

Explanation:

The net force acting on the ball will be:

⇒ F_{net}=mg-F_r

Here,

F = Force

m = mass

g = acceleration

Now,

According to the Newton's 2nd law of motion, we get

⇒ F_{net} = ma

To find the value of "a", we have to substitute "F_{net}=ma" in the above equation,

⇒ ma=mg-F_r

⇒    a=g-\frac{F_r}{m}

We can see that, the acceleration is greater for the greater mass of less for the lesser mass. Thus the above is the appropriate solution.

Answer:

Both the ball takes equal time to reach to the ground.  

Explanation:

Two balls of same diameter

Let the height is h.

Mass of ball 1 is more than the mass of ball 2.

The second equation of motion is

h = u t +0.5 gt^2

Here, the buoyant force due to air is same. So, the time of fall is independent of the mass.

So, both the ball takes equal time to reach to the ground.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The answer is "1.01 \times 10^{-13}"

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation for energy. Equating the kinetic energy to the potential energy.

KE=U=\frac{kqq'}{r}\\\\

Calculating the closest distance:

\to r=\frac{kqq'}{KE}\\\\

=\frac{k(2e)(79e)}{KE}\\\\=\frac{k(2)(79)e^2}{KE}\\\\=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \ N \cdot \frac{m^2}{c}(2)(79)(1.6 \times10^{-19} \ C)^2}{(2.25\ meV) (\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-13} \ J}{1 \ MeV})}\\\\

=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \times 2\times 79\times 1.6 \times10^{-19}\times 1.6 \times10^{-19} }{(2.25 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-13}) }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32\times 10^{-29}}{3.6 \times 10^{-13} }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32}{3.6} \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1011.2 \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1.01 \times 10^{-13}

An eagle carrying a trout flies above a lake along a horizontal path. The eagle drops the trout from a height of 6.1 m. The fish
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

7.1 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 6.1 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.12 s

Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 7.9 m

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.12 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²

v₀ = 7.1 m/s

Two people carry a heavy electric motor by placing it on a light board 2.45 m long. One person lifts at one end with a force of
maxonik [38]

Answer:

W=1055N

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first do a drawing of the situation so we can visualize theh problem better. (See attached picture)

In this problem, we will ignore the board's weight. As we can see in the free body diagram of the board, there are only three forces acting on the system and we can say the system is in vertical equilibrium, so from this we can say that:

\sum F=0

so we can do the sum now:

F_{1}+F_{2}-W=0

when solving for the Weight W, we get:

W=F_{1}+F_{2}

and now we can substitute the given data, so we get:

W=410N+645N

W=1055N
