Explanation:
For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:
PE = RE + KE
mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²
For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².
For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².
For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².
For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².
If we say k is the coefficient in each case:
mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²
For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:
mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²
gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²
2gh = (k + 1) v²
v² = 2gh / (k + 1)
The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity. Therefore:
marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring
Answer:
Change in velocity, change in direction, change in both velocity and direction
Explanation:
Answer:
two 5kg objects 2 meters apart✨
The velocity is a vectorial quantity, whereas speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it depends on the direction!
As such, the velocity is changing because the direction is changing.
