Physics
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Static electricity : is a familiar electric phenomenon in which charged particles are transferred from one body to another

Ohm's law : states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance

A major-league pitcher can throw a ball in excess of 40.1 m/s. If a ball is thrown horizontally at this speed, how much will it
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The ball will drop 0.881 m by the time it reaches the catcher.

Explanation:

The position of the ball at time "t" is described by the position vector "r":

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity.

t = time.

y0 = initial vertical position.

v0y = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

When the ball reaches the catcher, the position vector will be "r final" (see attached figure).

The x-component of the vector "r final", "rx final", will be 17.0 m. We have to find the y-component.

Using the equation of the x-component of the position vector, we can calculate the time it takes the ball to reach the catcher (notice that the frame of reference is located at the throwing point so that x0 and y0 = 0):

x = x0 + v0x · t

17.0 m = 0 m + 40.1 m/s · t

t = 17.0 m/ 40. 1 m/s = 0.424 s

With this time, we can calculate the y-component of the vector "r final", the drop of the ball:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Initially, there is no vertical velocity, then, v0y = 0.

y = 1/2 · g · t²

y = -1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (0.424 s)²

y = -0.881 m

The ball will drop 0.881 m by the time it reaches the catcher.

Consider a block of mass equal to 10kg sliding on an inclined plane of 30°, as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of kin
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

(a) aₓ = 1.33 m/s² and aᵧ = -0.770 m/s²

(b) x = 0.665 m and y = 4.62 m

(c) 3.61 s

Explanation:

(a) There are two ways we can solve this.  The first way is to sum the forces in the x and y direction, then use the relation tan 30° = -aᵧ/aₓ, where aᵧ is the acceleration in the +y direction (up) and aₓ is the acceleration in the +x direction (right).

The second way is to sum the forces in the parallel and perpendicular directions to find the acceleration parallel to the incline, a.  Then, use the relations aᵧ = -a sin 30° and aₓ = a cos 30°.

Let's try the first method.  Sum of forces in the +y direction:

∑F = ma

N cos 30° + Nμ sin 30° − mg = maᵧ

N cos 30° + Nμ sin 30° − mg = -maₓ tan 30°

Sum of forces in the +x direction:

∑F = ma

N sin 30° − Nμ cos 30° = maₓ

Substituting:

N cos 30° + Nμ sin 30° − mg = -(N sin 30° − Nμ cos 30°) tan 30°

N cos 30° + Nμ sin 30° − mg = -N sin 30° tan 30° + Nμ sin 30°

N cos 30° − mg = -N sin 30° tan 30°

N (cos 30° + sin 30° tan 30°) = mg

N = mg / (cos 30° + sin 30° tan 30°)

N = (10 kg) (10 m/s²) / (cos 30° + sin 30° tan 30°)

N = 86.6 N

Now, solving for the accelerations:

N sin 30° − Nμ cos 30° = maₓ

aₓ = N (sin 30° − μ cos 30°) / m

aₓ = (86.6 N) (sin 30° − 0.4 cos 30°) / 10 kg

aₓ = 1.33 m/s²

N cos 30° + Nμ sin 30° − mg = maᵧ

aᵧ = N (cos 30° + μ sin 30°) / m − g

aᵧ = (86.6 N) (cos 30° + 0.4 sin 30°) / 10 kg − 10 m/s²

aᵧ = -0.770 m/s²

Now let's try the second method.

Sum of forces in the perpendicular direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg cos 30° = 0

N = mg cos 30°

Sum of forces in the parallel direction:

∑F = ma

mg sin 30° − Nμ = ma

mg sin 30° − mgμ cos 30° = ma

a = g (sin 30° − μ cos 30°)

a = (10 m/s²) (sin 30° − 0.4 cos 30°)

a = 1.536 m/s²

Solving for the accelerations:

aₓ = a cos 30°

aₓ = 1.33 m/s²

aᵧ = -a sin 30°

aᵧ = -0.770 m/s²

As you can see, the second method is faster and easier, but both methods will give you the same answer.

(b) In the x direction:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

aₓ = 1.33 m/s²

t = 1 s

Find: x

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (1 s) + ½ (1.33 m/s²) (1 s)²

x = 0.665 m

In the y direction:

Given:

y₀ = 5 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

aᵧ = -0.770 m/s²

t = 1 s

Find: y

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = 5 m + (0 m/s) (1 s) + ½ (-0.770 m/s²) (1 s)²

y = 4.62 m

(c) In the y direction:

Given:

y₀ = 5 m

y = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

aᵧ = -0.770 m/s²

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 m = 5 m + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-0.770 m/s²) t²

t = 3.61 s

Define the term acceleration due to gravity
kifflom [539]

Answer

Acceleration

Acceleration Means rate of Change of velocity with respect to time.

acceleration due to gravity

when a body falls freely means no other force act on it except gravitational force that time velocity of object does not remains constant but it changes as it approaches towards the ground it means body get accelerated  and this acceleration which is gained by the body due to gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity it is denoted by g. Acceleration due to gravity is different on different planet. SI unit of  is m/s^2 . On earth its standard value is 9.80665m/s^2.
