A small lead ball, attached to a 1.75-m rope, is being whirled in a circle that lies in the vertical plane. The ball is whirled

at a constant rate of three revolutions per second and is released on the upward part of the circular motion when it is 2.1 m above the ground. The ball travels straight upward. In the absence of air resistance, to what maximum height above the ground does the ball rise?

Answer:

h = 57.6 m

Explanation:

First, we find the linear speed of the ball while in circular motion:

v = rω

where,

v = linear speed of ball = ?

r = radius of circle = length of rope = 1.75 m

ω = angular speed = (3 rev/s)(2π rad/1 rev) = 18.84 rad/s

Therefore,

v = (1.75 m)(18.84 rad/s)

v = 32.98 m/s

Now, we apply the 3rd equation of motion on the ball, when it breaks:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height covered = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (since, the ball finally stops at highest point for a moment)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 32.98 m/s

Therefore,

2(- 9.8 m/s²)h = (0 m/s)² - (32.98 m/s)²

h = ( - 1088.12 m²/s²)/( - 19.6 m/s²)

h = 55.5 m

since, the ball was initially at a height of 2.1 m from ground. So, the total height from ground, will now become:

h = 55.5 m + 2.1 m

<u>h = 57.6 m</u>

A motorist, traveling east on an open highway, sets his cruise control at 90.0 km/h. How far will he travel in 0.75 hours?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 67.5 km</h2>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

distance = velocity × time

From the question we have

distance = 90 × 0.75

We have the final answer as

<h3>67.5 km</h3>

Why are water storage tanks usually placed on high towers
sammy [17]
Thay are on high towers because if it was below how would the water flow. Putting it on high towers gives you an advantage of the gravity with means you got free pressure without having to use a pump.

<span>Water pressure = Height * density * gravity</span>

The greatest variation in size, mass, and luminosity occurs in:.
Sidana [21]

The greatest variation in size, mass, and luminosity occurs in elliptical galaxies.

<h3>What is Variation?</h3>

This is defined as the difference from the norm which is exhibited by objects.

In the solar system, variation in features such as size, mass, and luminosity occurs mostly in elliptical galaxies due to presence of array of stars thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
