At a certain instant, a ball is thrown downward with a velocity of 8.0 m/s from a height of 40 m. At the same instant, another ball is thrown upward from ground level directly in line with the first ball with a velocity of 12 m/s. Find (a) the time when the balls collide and (b) the height at which they collide. Take g = 10 m/s2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The two balls collide [tex]2\; \rm s[/tex] after launch.

(b) The height of the collision is [tex]4\; \rm m[/tex].

(Assuming that air resistance is negligible.)

Explanation:

Let vector quantities (displacements, velocities, acceleration, etc.) that point upward be positive. Conversely, let vector quantities that point downward be negative.

The gravitational acceleration of the earth points dowards (towards the ground.) Therefore, the sign of [tex]g[/tex] should be negative. The question states that the magnitude of [tex]g\![/tex] is [tex]10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}[/tex]. Hence, the signed value of [tex]\! g[/tex] should be [tex]\left(-10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right)[/tex].

Similarly, the initial velocity of the ball thrown downwards should also be negative: [tex]\left(-8.0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right)[/tex].

On the other hand, the initial velocity of the ball thrown upwards should be positive: [tex]\left(12\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right)[/tex].

Let [tex]v_0[/tex] and [tex]h_0[/tex] denote the initial velocity and height of one such ball. The following SUVAT equation gives the height of that ball at time [tex]t[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = \frac{1}{2}\, g \cdot {t}^{2} + v_0 \cdot t + h_0[/tex].

For both balls, [tex]g = \left(-10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right)[/tex].

For the ball thrown downwards:

Initial velocity: [tex]v_0 = \left(-8.0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right)[/tex].Initial height: [tex]h_0 = 40\; \rm m[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = -5\, t^{2} + (-8.0)\, t + 40[/tex] (where [tex]h[/tex] is in meters and [tex]t[/tex] is in seconds.)

Similarly, for the ball thrown upwards:

Initial velocity: [tex]v_0 = \left(12\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right)[/tex].Initial height: [tex]h_0 = 0\; \rm m[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle h(t) = -5\, t^{2} + 12\, t[/tex] (where [tex]h[/tex] is in meters and [tex]t[/tex] is in seconds.)

Equate the two expressions and solve for [tex]t[/tex]:

[tex]-5\, t^{2} + (-8.0)\, t + 40 = -5\, t^{2} + 12\, t[/tex].

[tex]t = 2[/tex].

Therefore, the collision takes place [tex]2\, \rm s[/tex] after launch.

Substitute [tex]t = 2[/tex] into either of the two original expressions to find the height of collision:

[tex]h = -5\times 2^{2} + 12 \times 2 = 4\; \rm m[/tex].

In other words, the two balls collide when their height was [tex]4\; \rm m[/tex].

Answer 2

The time the two balls collide is 0.4 seconds while the height at which they collide is 4m

The given parameters are :

Initial Velocity U = 8m/s

Height H = 40m

For the second ball, the initial velocity = 12m/s

a.) For the first ball, the height attained at the point of collision will be

h = ut + 1/2gt^2

h = 8t + 1/2 x 10t^2 ........ (1)

For the second ball, the height attained at the point of collision will be

h = 12t - 1/2 x 10t^2 .........(2)

Since the height will be the same for the two balls, equate the two equations

8t + 10t^2 = 12t - 10t^2

Collect the like term

8t - 12t = -5t^2 - 5t^2

-4t = -10^2

10t = 4

t = 4/10

t = 0.4s

b.) Substitute time t in any of the equation to find the height

h = 12(0.4) - 0.5 x 10(0.4)^2

h = 4.8 - 0.8

h = 4m

Therefore, the time the two balls collide is 0.4 seconds while the height at which they collide is 4m

Explanation:

The frequency is of an object is given by [tex]f=\frac{1}{T}[/tex], where [tex]T[/tex] is the orbital period of the object.

Since the racecar makes 24 revolutions around a circular track in 162 seconds, it will take the racecar [tex]\frac{162}{24}=6.75\:\mathrm{s}[/tex] per revolution.

Therefore, the frequency of the racecar is [tex]\frac{1}{6.75}=\fbox{$0.15\:\mathrm{Hz}$}[/tex] (two significant figures).

The illustration with a vector pointed right going through an opening in a boundary and turning into a transverse wave on the other side demonstrates the phenomenon of absorption, so, option B is correct.

What is absorption?

Absorption, in wave motion, is the process by which a wave's energy is transferred to matter when the wave travels through it. The energy of an electromagnetic, acoustic, or other wave is related to the square of its amplitude, which is the maximum displacement or movement of a point on the wave.

The amplitude of a wave continuously diminishes as it travels through a substance. The medium is described as being transparent to a specific type of radiation if just a tiny portion of the energy is absorbed, whereas it is described as opaque if all the energy is lost.

Answers

Answer:

  Natalie says that all things with mass have a gravitational field, but the force is very weak and cannot be perceived around small objects.

Explanation:

The force due to gravity is proportional to the mass of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects. The Earth is so massive that the force due to its gravity is much greater than the force between objects on the counter.

If there were no friction, the objects might move toward each other, depending on what other masses were near them tending to cause them to move in other directions.

Natalie's explanation is about the best.

Additional comment

The universal gravitational constant was determined by Henry Cavendish in the late 18th century using lead balls weighing 1.6 pounds and 348 pounds. His experiment was enclosed in a large wooden box to minimize outside effects. While these masses are somewhat greater than those of a glue bottle and stapler, the experiment shows the force of gravity between "small" objects can be measured.

at what speed does the kg ball move ?

Answers

Answer:  Choice A) 2 meters per second

=======================================================

Explanation:

The smaller ball has momentum of

p = m*v

p = (1 kg)*(4 m/s)

p = 4 kg*m/s

All of this momentum transfers into the larger ball because the smaller ball comes to a complete stop.

For the larger ball, we have p = 4 and m = 2. Let's find v.

p = m*v

4 = 2*v

4/2 = v

2 = v

v = 2 m/s which is why the answer is choice A

The larger ball moves at a speed of 2 meters per second. The speed is cut in half compared to the smaller ball because the larger ball has more inertia (aka more mass), and therefore it takes more energy to move it. If you apply the same energy to each, then the smaller object moves faster.

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.69 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire at a distance of 0.331 m from the rotation axis. Noting that for every rotation the tack travels one circumference, find the tack's tangential speed.

Answers

Answer:

the tack's tangential speed is  5.59 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

R = 0.331 m

wheel rotates 2.69 times a second which means, the wheel complete 2.69 revolutions in a second, so

ω = 2.69 rev/s × 2π/1s = 16.9 rad/s

using the relation of angular speed with tangential speed

tangential speed v of the tack is expressed as;

v = R × ω

so we substitute

v = 0.331 m × 16.9 rad/s

v = 5.59 m/s

Therefore, the tack's tangential speed is  5.59 m/s

A bat at rest sends out ultrasonic sound waves at 46.2 kHz and receives them returned from an object moving directly away from it at 21.8 m/s, what is the received sound frequency?
f= ? Hz

Answers

Answer:

f" = 40779.61 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, we see that the bat is the source of the sound wave and is initially at rest and the object is in motion as the observer, thus;

from the Doppler effect equation, we can calculate the initial observed frequency as:

f' = f(1 - (v_o/v))

We are given;

f = 46.2 kHz = 46200 Hz

v_o = 21.8 m/s

v is speed of sound = 343 m/s

Thus;

f' = 46200(1 - (21/343))

f' = 43371.4285 Hz

In the second stage, we see that the bat is now a stationary observer while the object is now the moving source;

Thus, from doppler effect again but this time with the source going away from the obsever, the new observed frequency is;

f" = f'/(1 + (v_o/v))

f" = 43371.4285/(1 + (21.8/343))

f" = 40779.61 Hz

B. The energy a heat engine must deposit in a cold reservoir is greater than or equal to the energy extracted as useful work.
C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

Answers

Answer:

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics says that "It is impossible to extract an amount of heat Q from a hot reservoir and use it all to do work W. Some amount of heat q must be exhausted to a cold reservoir."

This means that if we extract an amount of heat Q from the hot reservoir, the work W can never be exactly equal to Q, then there is a surplus of heat q that must be deposited in a cold reservoir.

Then we have the equation:

Q = W + q

From this we can conclude that the correct option is:

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

There will be always some energy that is not transformed into work, and is deposited in a cold reservoir.

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

The second law of thermodynamics says that "It is impossible to extract an amount of heat Q from a hot reservoir and use it all to do work W. Some amount of heat q must be exhausted to a cold reservoir". This means that if we extract an amount of heat Q from the hot reservoir, the work W can never be exactly equal to Q, then there is a surplus of heat q that must be deposited in a cold reservoir. Then we have the equation: Q = W + q There will be always some energy that is not transformed into work, and is deposited in a cold reservoir.

Therefore, option C is correct.

In this problem, you will practice applying this formula to several situations involving angular acceleration. In all of these situations, two objects of masses m1 and m2 are attached to a seesaw. The seesaw is made of a bar that has length l and is pivoted so that it is free to rotate in the vertical plane without friction. Assume that the pivot is attached tot he center of the bar.

You are to find the angular acceleration of the seesaw when it is set in motion from the horizontal position. In all cases, assume that m1>m2.I

Explanation:

Part A :

Assuming that mass of swing is negligible

α = T/I

where ; T = torque, I = inertia,

hence T =  L/2*9*(M1 - M2)

also;  I = [tex]M1*(L/2)^2 + M2*(L/2)^2[/tex]=  ( M1 + M2) * (L/2)^2
