In the figure, a baseball is hit at a height h = 1.20 m and then caught at the same height. It travels alongside a wall, moving

up past the top of the wall 1.1 s after it is hit and then down past the top of the wall 4.8 s later, at distance D = 54 m farther along the wall. (a) What horizontal distance is traveled by the ball from hit to catch? What are the (b) magnitude and (c) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball's velocity just after being hit? (d) How high is the wall?

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The ball travels distance D in ∆t = 2.60 s. Therefore, the x component of the initial velocity is D =v

ox

​

 ⇒ ∆t = D/∆t = 15.4 m/s Due to the symmetry of projectile motions, it takes 1.2 seconds the ball to reach the initial height after passing the top of the wall downward. Therefore, the total flight time is t

tot

​

 = 1.2 + 2.6 +1.2 = 5 s The horizontal range is R = v

By symmetry, the ball reaches the peak of the motion at time t

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.

Two children of about the same weight are playing at the playground. They both climb up to the top of a small tower. One slides
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

D) The overall work done by gravity is zero  

This statement is correct .

If m be the mass of each of the children and h be the height of tower

work done by gravity on the boys in going up = - mgh

it is so because force applied by gravity = mg downwards and displacement

is upwards

work done will be negative = - mgh

Work done by gravity on boys when they come down = + mgh because both force and displacement are downwards .

Hence total work done = - mgh + mgh = 0.

The children will have same kinetic energy as the inclined surface is friction-less so no energy will be dissipated hence addition of energy to boys in both the cases will be same.

How would the mathematical model change if the direction that the object traveled was reversed
victus00 [196]
A line that is falling towards the x axis represents an object that is negatively accelerating, or slowing down. When the line hits the x axis, the object has stopped moving. If the graph continues below the x axis, the object has changed direction and is moving backwards at increasing velocity.
