A baseball is hit almost straight up into the air with a speed of 26 m/s . Estimate how high it goes.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

The maximum height of the ball is 34.5 m.

The ball is 5.31 s in the air.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations for the height and velocity of the baseball that is hit straight up are as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height of the baseball at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

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

v = velocity at time t.

If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the place where the baseball is hit, then, y0 = 0.

To calculate how high it goes, we have to obtain the time at which the ball is at maximum height. At that point, the velocity is 0. Then using the equation of velocity:

v = v0 + g · t

0 = 26 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · t

-26 m/s / -9.8 m/s² = t

t = 2.65 s

The height at that time will be the maximum height:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t² (y0 = 0)

y = 26 m/s · 2.65 s - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.65 s)²

y = 34.5 m

The maximum height of the ball is 34.5 m

If it takes the ball 2.65 s to reach the maximum height it will take another 2.65 s to return to the initial position. Then, the time it will be in the air is (2.65 s + 2.65 s) 5.30 s. However, let´s calculate the time it takes the ball to reach the initial position using the equation for height.

At the initial position y = 0. Then:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t² (y0 = 0)

0 = 26 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = t (26 m/s - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t) (t = 0 when the ball is hit)

0 = 26 m/s - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t

-26 / -4.9 m/s² = t

t = 5.31 s ( the difference with the 5.30 s obtained above is due to rounding the time to 2.65 s).

The ball is 5.31 s in the air.

Have a nice day!

To understand how to find the velocities of objects after a collision.

trasher [3.6K]

There are some information missing on Part D: Let the mass of object 1 be m and the mass of object 2 be 3m. If the collision is perfectly inelastic, what are the velocities of the two objects after the collision? Give the velocity v_1 of object one, followed by object v_2 of object two, separated by a comma. Express each velocity in terms of v.

Answer: Part A: v_1 = 0; v_2 = v

Part B: v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{2}$

Part C: v_1 = $\frac{v}{3}$ ; v_2 = $\frac{4v}{3}$

Part D: v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{4}$

Explanation: In elastic collisions, there no loss of kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Momentum is determined as p = m.v and kinetic energy as K = $\frac{1}{2}$ m. $v^{2}$

Conserved means that the amount of initial momentum is equal to the amount of final momentum:

$m_{1}$ . $v_{1i}$ + $m_{2}$ . $v_{2i}$ = $m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}$

No loss of energy means that initial kinietc energy is the same as the final kinetic energy:

$\frac{1}{2}(m_{1}.v_{1i} + m_{2}.v_{2i}) = \frac{1}{2} (m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f} )$

To determine the final velocities of each object, there are 2 variables and two equations, so working those equations, the result is:

$v_{2f} = \frac{2.m_{1} } {m_{1} + m_{2} }.v_{1i} + \frac{(m_{2} - m_{1})}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{2i}$

$v_{1f} = \frac{m_{2} - m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i} + \frac{2.m_{2} }{m_{1} + m_{2} } .v_{2i}$

For all the collisions, object 2 is static, i.e. $v_{2i}$ = 0

<u>Part A</u>: Both objects have the same mass (m), $v_{1i}$ = v and collision is elastic:

v_1 = $\frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i}$

v_1 = 0

v_2 = $\frac{2.m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2}}.v_{1i}$

v_2 = $\frac{2.m}{m+m}.v$

v_2 = v

When the masses are the same and there is an object at rest, the object in movement stops and the object at rest has the same same velocity as the object who hit it.

<u>Part B</u>: Same mass but collision is inelastic: An inelastic collision means that after it happens, the two objects has the same final velocity, then:

$m_{1}$ . $v_{1i}$ + $m_{2}$ . $v_{2i}$ = $m_{1}.v_{1f} + m_{2}.v_{2f}$

$m_{1}.v_{1i} = (m_{1}+m_{2}).v_{f}$

$v_{f} = \frac{m_{1}.v_{1i}}{m_{1} + m_{2} }$

v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{m.v}{m+m}$

v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{2}$

<u>Part C:</u> Object 1 is 2m, object 2 is m and elastic collision:

v_1 = $\frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1} + m_{2} } . v_{1i}$

v_1 = $\frac{2m - m}{2m + m } . v$

v_1 = $\frac{v}{3}$

v_2 = $\frac{2.m_{1} }{m_{1} + m_{2}}.v_{1i}$

v_2 = $\frac{2.2m}{2m+m}.v$

v_2 = $\frac{4v}{3}$

<u>Part D</u>: Object 1 is m, object is 3m and collision is inelastic:

v_1 = v_2 = $v_{f} = \frac{m_{1}.v_{1i}}{m_{1} + m_{2} }$

v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{m}{m+3m}.v$

v_1 = v_2 = $\frac{v}{4}$

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency? Hz(b) What is its wavelength in glas

vekshin1

<h2>Answers:</h2>

The speed of a wave is given by:

$v=f.\lambda$ (1)

Where $f$ is the frequency and $\lambda$ the wavelength.

In the case of light, its speed is:

$c=f.\lambda$ (2)

On the other hand, the described situation is known as Refraction, a phenomenon in which the light changes its direction when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.

In this context, the Refractive index $n$ is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material, and is defined as the relation between the speed of light in vacuum ( $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ ) and the speed of light $v$ in the second medium:
