Answer:

A basketball sitting still in a players hands

Explanation:

The other 3 answers have the ball <u>in motion</u> (going towards the basket, bouncing, and rolling) so that would be <u>kinetic energy</u>.

When the basketball is sitting in the player's hands, it has the potential to be in motion.

Use Bernoulli's Equation to find out how fast water leaves an opening in a water tank. The water level is 0.75 m above the openi
yuradex [85]

Answer:

3.84 m/s

Explanation:

Using Bernoulli's equation below:

P1 + (1/2ρv1²) + h1ρg = P2 + (1/2ρv2²) + h2ρg

where P1 = P2 atmospheric pressure

(1/2ρv1²) + h1ρg = (1/2ρv2²) + h2pg

collect the like terms

h1ρg - h2ρg = (1/2ρv2²) - (1/2ρv1²)

factorize the expression by removing the like terms on both sides

gρ(h1 - h2) = 1/2ρ( v2² - v1²)

divide both side by rho (density in kg/m³, ρ )

g(h1 - h2) = 1/2 (v2² - v1²)

assuming the surface of the tank is large and the speed of water then at the tank surface  v1 = 0

2g(h1 - h2) = v2²

take the square root of both side and h1 - h2 is the difference between the surface of the tank and the opening where water is coming out in meters

√2g(h1 - h2) = √ v2²

v2 = √2g(h1-h2) = √ 2 × 9.81×0.75 = 3.84 m/s

3.1 * Consider a gun of mass M (when unloaded) that fires a shell of mass m with muzzle speed v. (That is, the shell's speed rel
kramer

Answer:

v_s=\frac{v}{1+\frac{m}{M} }

Explanation:

Let the shells speed with respect to ground be v_s

Let the shells speed with respect to ground be v_g

mass of shell, m

mass of gun, M

The relative velocity of shell with respect to a free unconstrained gun, v

According to the Newton's third law of motion the direction of the velocity of gun and shell will be in the opposite direction.

So, the relation between the relative velocity and their individual velocity will be:

v=v_s+v_g ......................(1)

<u>And according to the conservation of momentum (as the condition is very close to the elastic collision):</u>

M.v_g-m.v_s=0

substitute the value of v_g from equation (1)

M\times (v-v_s)=m\times v_s

M.v-M.v_s=m.v_s

M.v=M.v_s+m.v_s

v_s=\frac{M.v}{(M+m)}

v_s=\frac{v}{(\frac{(M+m)}{M}) }

v_s=\frac{v}{1+\frac{m}{M} }
