The height of the ball is 2.45 m.

To calculate the height of the ball, we use the formula below.

<h3>Formula</h3>
  • E = mgh................ Equation 1

Where:

  • E = Elastic energy of the spring
  • m = mass of the ball
  • h = height of the ball
  • g = acceleration due to gravity.

make h the subject of the equation

  • h = E/mg...............Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • E = 7.2 J
  • m = 0.3 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these  values into equation 2

  • h = 7.2/(0.3×9.8)
  • h = 7.2/2.94
  • h = 2.45 m

Hence, The height of the ball is 2.45 m.

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min. Find the
mylen [45]

Answer:

Angular acceleration, is 708.07\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the drill, \omega_i=0

After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min, final angular speed, \omega_f=28940\ rev/min=3030.58\ rad/s

We need to find the drill’s angular acceleration. It is given by the rate of change of angular velocity.

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{3030.58\ rad/s}{4.28\ s}\\\\\alpha =708.07\ rad/s^2

So, the drill's angular acceleration is 708.07\ rad/s^2.

A truck has shock absorbers with a spring constant of 24200 N/m. When it hits a bump, it oscillates at 0.429 Hz. What is the mas
siniylev [52]

Answer:

3331.5 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Spring constant of the spring (k) = 24200 N/m

Frequency of oscillation (f) = 0.429 Hz

Let the mass be 'm' kg.

Now, we know that, a spring-mass system undergoes Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). The frequency of oscillation of SHM is given as:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Rewrite the above equation in terms of 'm'. This gives,

2\pi f=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\Squaring\ both\ sides,\ we\ get:\\\\(2\pi f)^2=\frac{k}{m}\\\\m=\frac{k}{4\pi^2 f^2}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'm'. This gives,

m=\frac{24200\ N/m}{4\pi^2\times (0.429\ Hz)^2 }\\\\m=\frac{24200\ N/m}{4\pi^2\times 0.184\ Hz^2}\\\\m\approx3331.5\ kg

Therefore, the mass of the truck is 3331.5 kg.
