Answer:

Approximately 0.45\; \rm s, assuming that air resistance is negligible and that g = 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

The ball starts to fall the moment it rolls of the edge of the table.

  • Let h_{0} denote the initially height of this ball.
  • Let v_{0} denote the initial vertical velocity of this ball.

Assume that gravity is the only force acting on the ball during its fall (that is, there's no air resistance to slow the ball down.) The vertical acceleration of this ball during the fall would be constantly equal to (-g) (negative because the ball is accelerating downwards.)

The following SUVAT equation would give the height h of this ball at time t:

\displaystyle h = \frac{1}{2}\, (-g)\cdot t^{2} + v_{0} \cdot t + h_{0}.

Since the table is horizontal, the vertical velocity of this ball would be 0 the moment it rolls of the edge. In other words: v_{0} = 0\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}.

The initial height of this ball when it rolls of the table is h_{0} = 1.0\; \rm m, same as the height of the table.

Hence, the height h of this ball at time t would be:

\begin{aligned}h &= \frac{1}{2}\, (-g)\cdot t^{2} + v_{0} \cdot t + h_{0} \\ &= \frac{1}{2}\, (-g) \cdot t^{2} + h_{0}\end{aligned}.

At t = 0\; \rm s, the height of this ball would be 1.0\; \rm m. The ball would be on the ground by the time h = 0\; \rm m, Set the right-hand side of this equation to 0 and solve for the time t at which the ball is on the ground:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, (-g) \cdot t^{2} + h_{0} = 0.

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, (-g) \cdot t^{2} = - h_{0}.

\displaystyle t = \sqrt{\frac{2\, h_{0}}{g}}.

Substitute in the values h_{0} = 1.0\; \rm m and g = 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}:

\begin{aligned} t &= \sqrt{\frac{2\, h_{0}}{g}} \\ &= \sqrt{\frac{1.0\; \rm m}{9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx0.45\; \rm s\end{aligned}.

In other words, the ball would be in the air for approximately 0.45\; \rm s. (The initial horizontal velocity of this ball does not affect the duration of this fall.)

Velocity as a Vector Quantity
Because the person always returns to the original position, the motion would never result in a change in position. Since velocity is defined as the rate at which the position changes, this motion results in zero velocity.

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 15.1 ° from the normal to the plane of the l
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Magnetic flux through the loop is 1.03 T m²

Explanation:

Given:

Magnetic field, B = 4.35 T

Radius of the circular loop, r = 0.280 m

Angle between circular loop and magnetic field, θ = 15.1⁰

Magnetic flux is determine by the relation:

\Phi = BA\cos \theta   ....(1)

Here A represents area of the circular loop.

Area of circular loop, A = πr²

Hence, the equation (1) becomes:

\Phi=B\pi r^{2} \cos \theta

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

\Phi=4.35\times\pi (0.28)^{2} \cos 15.1

\Phi = 1.03 T m²

Two planets have masses 2 x 10^23 kg and 5 x 10^22 kg, and the distance between them is 3 x 10^16 m. Calculate the gravitational
xxTIMURxx [149]

Explanation:

given,

mass of one planet (m1)=2*10^23 kg

mass of another planet (m2)=5*10^22kg

distance between them(d)=3*10^16m

gravitational constant(G)=6.67*10^-11Nm^2kg^-2

gravitational force between them(F)=?

we know,

F=Gm1m2/d^2

or, F=6.67*10^-11*2*10^23*5*10^22/(3*10^16)^2

or, F=6.67*2*5*10^-11+23+22/3*3*10^32

or, F=66.7*10^34/9*10^32

or, F=7.41*10^34-32

•°• F=7.41*10^2

thus, the gravitational force between them is 7.14*10^2

A person swings a 0.546-kg tether ball tied to a 4.56-m rope in an approximately horizontal circle. If the maximum tension the r
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

2.1 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a tether ball, m = 0.546 kg

Length of a rope, l =  4.56 m

The maximum tension the rope can withstand before breaking is 11.0 N

We need to find the maximum angular speed of the ball. Let v is the linear velocity. The maximum tension is balanced by the centripetal force acting on it. It can be given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{11\times 4.56}{0.546}} \\\\=9.584\ m/s

Let \omega is the angular speed of the ball. The relation between the angular speed and angular velocity is given by :

v=r\omega\\\\\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\=\dfrac{9.584}{4.56}\\\\=2.1\ rad/s

So, the maximum angular speed of the ball is 2.1 rad/s.
