Every second it travels 2 meters and it traveled 3 so (2 x 3) would be 6meters it traveled

<span>Aristotle would say that an object comes to rest because it got tired. Aristotle came up with ideas, but never tested them. Galileo used experiments and mathematical models to analyze motion. He used a slanted inclined plane an order to slow down the acceleration due to gravity on an object. He found out that an object accelerates as it falls. </span>

1. A baseball is hit straight up at a speed of 45 meters per second.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

a) 103.32 m

b) 9.18 s

Explanation:

a) Let's use the knowledge that at the top of its trajectory, the baseball will have a final velocity of 0 m/s.

The acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s², assuming the upwards direction is positive and the downwards direction is negative.

The initial velocity of the baseball is 45 m/s.

We are trying to find the vertical displacement of the baseball, Δx, and we have the variables v, a, and v₀.

Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables:

  • v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • (0)² = (45)² + 2(-9.8)Δx
  • 0 = 2025 - 19.6Δx
  • -2025 = -19.6Δx
  • Δx = 103.32

The maximum height of the ball before it falls back down is 103.32 m.

b) Now we want to solve for time t. Find a constant acceleration equation that contains three known variables.

  • v = v₀ + at

Substitute known values into this equation.

  • 0 = 45 + (-9.8)t
  • -45 = -9.8t
  • t = 4.59183673

Remember that this is only half of the baseball's flight since we are using the final velocity for when the ball is halfway through its trajectory.

To solve for the total time the baseball is in the air, double the time t we solved for.

  • 2t = 9.18367346

The baseball is in the air for 9.18 s.

5)A 0.50 kg hockey puck is at rest on ice when you hit it with a hockey stick, applying a force of 100 N for
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

F t = m Δv         impulse delivered = change in momentum

Δv = 100 * .1 / .5 = 20 m/s     original speed of puck

KE = 1/2 m v^2 = .5 * 20^2 / 2 = 100 J     initial KE of puck

E = μ m g d        energy lost by puck

Ff = μ m g = m a      deceleration of puck due to friction

a = μ  g = 9.8 * .2 = 1.96 m/s^2

v2 = a t + v1 = -1.96 * 4 + 20 = 12.2 m/s     speed of puck on striking box

m v2 = M V       conservation of momentum when puck strikes box

V = m v2 / M = 12.2 * .5 / .8 = 7.63 m/s     speed of box after collision

KE = 1/2 M V^2 = .8 * 7.63^2 / 2 = 23.3 J     KE of box after collision

KE = μ M g d     energy lost by box in sliding distance d

d = 23.3 / (.3 * .8 * 9.8) = 9.91 m     distance box slides

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Part a)

\theta_2 = 15 degree

Part b)

\Delta t = 2.88 s

Explanation:

Part a)

In order to have same range for same initial speed we can say

R_1 = R_2

\frac{v^2 sin2\theta_1}{g} = \frac{v^2 sin2\theta_2}{g}

so after comparing above we will have

\theta_1 = 90 - \theta

so we have

75 = 90 - \theta_2

\theta_2 = 15 degree

Part b)

Time of flight for the first ball is given as

T_1 = \frac{2vsin\theta}{g}

T_1 = \frac{2(20)sin75}{9.81}

T_1 = 3.94 s

Now for other angle of projection time is given as

T_2 = \frac{2(20)sin15}{9.81}

T_2 = 1.05 s

So here the time lag between two is given as

\Delta t = T_1 - T_2

\Delta t = 3.94 - 1.05

\Delta t = 2.88 s
