Answer:
The momentum is 1.94 kg m/s.
Explanation:
To solve this problem we equate the potential energy of the spring with the kinetic energy of the ball.
The potential energy of the compressed spring is given by
,
where is the length of compression and
is the spring constant.
And the kinetic energy of the ball is
When the spring is released all of the potential energy of the spring goes into the kinetic energy of the ball; therefore,
solving for we get:
And since momentum of the ball is ,
Putting in numbers we get:
Answer:
10.93m/s with the assumption that the water in the lake is still (the water has a speed of zero)
Explanation:
The velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water surface is equal to the resultant velocity between the fish and the water when it hits it.
The fish drops on the water surface vertically with a vertical velocity v. Nothing was said about the velocity of the water, hence we can safely assume that the velocity if the water in the lake is zero, meaning that it is still. Therefore the relative velocity becomes equal to the velocity v with which the fish strikes the water surface.
We use the first equation of motion for a free-falling body to obtain v as follows;
v = u + gt....................(1)
where g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s/s
It should also be noted that the horizontal and vertical components of the motion are independent of each other, hence we take u = 0 as the fish falls vertically.
To obtain t, we use the second equation of motion as stated;
Given; h = 6.10m.
since u = 0 for the vertical motion; equation (2) can be written as follows;
substituting;
Putting this value of t in equation (1) we obtain the following;
v = 0 + 9.8*1.12
v = 10.93m/s
