When a punter kicks a football, is he doing any work on the ball while the toe of his foot is in contact with it?

Answer:

a) W=0  b) force of gravity and friction force

Explanation:

a) When the kicker touches the soccer ball, his foot exerts a force on the ball in the same direction of its movement, but the ball is stationary, therefore the displacement of the ball during the very short contact is zero and as the work is the product of force and distance, we conclude that there is no work

   W = F. d

   d = 0

    W = 0

b) When the ball is in flight there is mainly the force of gravity that has a vertical direction and the friction force that opposes the movement at all times

A solid sphere has a radius of 0.200 m and a mass of 150.0 kg. how much work is required to get the sphere rolling with an angul
Allisa [31]

Here in this case we can use work energy theorem

As per work energy theorem

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic Energy of the object

Total kinetic energy of the solid sphere is ZERO initially as it is given at rest.

Final total kinetic energy is sum of rotational kinetic energy and translational kinetic energy

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^2 +\frac{1}{2} mv^2

also we know that

I = \frac{2}{5}mR^2

w= \frac{v}{R}

Now kinetic energy is given by

KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)w^2 +\frac{1}{2} m(Rw)^2

KE = \frac{1}{5}mR^2w^2 +\frac{1}{2} mR^2w^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}mR^2w^2

KE = \frac{7}{10}*150*(0.200)^2(50)^2

KE = 10500 J

Now by work energy theorem

Work done = 10500 - 0 = 10500 J

So in the above case work done on sphere is 10500 J

A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s. It next maintains the velocity it has reached for 10 s.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

12m/s

Explanation:

v_f=v_o+at

Let's call the velocity that the car maintains for 10 seconds v_f_1, and the final velocity v_f_2.

v_f_1=0+(4)(5)=20m/s \\\\v_f_2=20+(-2)(4)=12m/s

Hope this helps!
