An 80- quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43- football horizontally at 15 . How fast will he be

moving backward just after releasing the ball? Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

Answer:

a)

the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b)

the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a)

How fast will he be moving backward just after releasing the ball?

using conservation of momentum;

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / m₂

where m₁ is initial mass ( 0.43 kg )

m₂ is the final mass ( 80 kg )

v₁ is the initial velocity ( 15 m/s )

v₂ is the final velocity

so we substitute

v₂ = ( 0.43 × 15 ) / 80

v₂ = 6.45 / 80

v₂ = 0.080625 m/s

Therefore, the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b) Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

we make use of the relation between time, distance and speed;

s = d/t

d = st

where s is the speed ( 0.080625 m/s )

t is time ( 0.30 s )

so we substitute

d = 0.080625 × 0.30

d = 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Therefore, the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

An object of mass 8kg is attached to massless string of length 2m and swum with a tangential velocity of 3 what is the tension o

Paul [167]

Answer:

36 N

Explanation:

If the object of mass, m = 8 kg is swung in a horizontal circle of radius, r = 2m = length of string with tangential velocity v = 3 m/s, the tension in the string is the centripetal force which is T = mv²/r

= 8 kg × (3 m/s)²/2 m

= 4 kg × 9 m/s²

= 36 N

A farmer lifts his hay bales into the top loft of his barn by walking his horse forward with a constant velocity of 1 ft/s. Dete

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The velocity of the hay bale is - 0.5 ft/s and the acceleration is $6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Constant velocity of the horse in the horizontal, $v_{x} = 1 ft/s$

Distance of the horse on the horizontal axis, x = 10 ft

Vertical distance, y = 20 ft

Now,

Apply Pythagoras theorem to find the length:

$20^{2} + 10^{2} = l^{2}$

$l^{2}= 500$

Now,

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 500$ (1)

Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t 't':

$2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = 0$

$x\frac{dx}{dt} = - y\frac{dy}{dt}$

where

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the horizontal

$\frac{dy}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the vertical

$v_{x}$ = velocity along the x-axis.

$v_{y}$ = velocity along the y-axis

$xv_{x} = -yv_{y}$

$v_{y} = - 10\times \frac{1}{20} = - 0.5 ft/s$

$|v_{y}| = 0.5\ ft/s$

Acceleration of the hay bale is given by the kinematic equation:

$v_{y}^{2} = u_{y} + 2ay$

$(-0.5)^{2} =0 + 2ay$

$0.25 = 2ay$

$\frac{0.25}{2y} = a$

$a = \frac{0.25}{2\times 20} = 6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

A 12.70 g bullet has a muzzle velocity (at the moment it leaves the end of a firearm) of 430 m/s when rifle with a weight of 25.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

2.1844 m/s

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of momentum can be applied here.

when two objects interact, the total momentum remains the same provided no external forces are acting.

Consider the whole system , gun and bullet. as an isolated system, so the net momentum is constant. In particular before firing the gun, the net momentum is zero. The conservation of momentum,

$0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet} + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle} \\$

assume the bullet goes to right side and the gravitational acceleration =10 $ms^{-2}$

so now the weight of the rifle= $\frac{25}{10}$

$0=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet} + m_{rifle}*v_{rifle} \\\\0=(12.70*10^{-3}) *430ms^{-1} +(\frac{25}{10} )*v_{rifle} \\v_{rifle} =-2.1844ms^{-1}$

this is a negative velocity to the right side. that means the rifle recoils to the left side
