A ball is launched with initial speed v from the ground level up a frictionless hill. the hill becomes steeper as the ball slide

s up; however, the ball remains in contact with the hill at all times. using conservation of energy, find the maximum vertical height hmax to which the ball will climb. express your answer in terms of v and g.

The ball will rise to a maximum height of \boxed{h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}}.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy associated with the body by virtue of its motion whereas the potential energy of the body is the amount of energy stored in a body by virtue of its position.

The amount of kinetic energy stored in a body is given by:

\boxed{K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}                                                ...... (1)

Here, K is the kinetic energy, m is the mass and v is the speed of the body.

The potential energy stored in a body as it reaches its maximum height is given as:

\boxed{P=mgh}                                                      ...... (2)

Here, P is the potential energy stored, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height attained by the body.

According to the conservation of energy, the energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be converted from one form to another.

\text{kinetic energy}=\text{potential energy}

Substitute the values of kinetic energy and potential energy and simplify the expression for the maximum height.

\begin{aligned}\dfrac{1}{2}mv^{2}=&mgh_{max}\\h_{max}=&\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the maximum height attained by the ball as it rises up is \boxed{h_{max}=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}}.

<span>if we take ball then the Kinetic Energy of the ball is ½mV² as it rolls up the slope, the Kinetic Energy is converted to potential energy, PE = mgh. mgh = ½mV² h = V²/2g</span>

A box is dropped onto a conveyor belt moving at 3.2 m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the belt is 0.28, ho
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

t = 1.16 s.

Explanation:

Given,

speed of conveyor belt, v = 3.2 m/s

coefficient of friction,f = 0.28

Using newton second law

f = ma

and we also know that frictional force

f = μ N

f = μ m g

equating both the force equation

a = μ g

a = 0.28 x 9.81

a = 2.75 m/s²

Using Kinematic equation

v = u + at

3.2 = 0 + 2.75 x t

t = 1.16 s.

Time taken by the box to move without slipping is 1.16 s.

Is a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth ? Whay do you say?
KATRIN_1 [288]
I would say yes, a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth. Base on articles, it is the end of the world if that happens. <span>Some people believe global cataclysm will occur when Earth's magnetic poles reverse. When north goes south, they say, the continents will lurch in one direction or the other, triggering massive earthquakes, rapid climate change and species extinctions.</span>

How do I calculate (30 points plus a brainlyest if correct)​
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Are you trying to calculate the net force?

If so, it would be 3 N Up.

This is because the 15 N forces from the left and right cancel out, leaving only the upwards 15 N force, and the 12 N force. However, we have to subtract 12 from 15, leaving the final net force to be 3 N Up.

Let me know if this helps!
