A ball is tossed in the air and released. It moves up, reverses direction, falls back down again, and is caught at the same heig

ht it was released. Considering the time interval after the ball is released and before it is caught, when does the gravitational potential energy of the ball have its maximum value?

Answer:

The potential energy has a  maximum when the ball is a time that is half of the time for total travel

Explanation:

Generally potential energy is a the varies directly with the height according to this formula

            PE =mgh

and the ball attains a maximum height when the time is equal to half of the total time taken to travel

Answer:

The potential energy is highest at it point of Max height...

Explanation:

From the formula potential energy = mgh...

The greater the height, the greater the potential energy.

So considering the time interval it's at the time it takes the ball to reach the reversal point ( its Max height)

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a = \frac{2}{3}g

T = \frac{mg}{3}

Explanation:

As the disc is unrolling from the thread then at any moment of the time

We have force equation as

mg - T = ma

also by torque equation we can say

TR = I\alpha

TR = \frac{1}{2}mR^2(\frac{a}{R})

T = \frac{1}{2}ma

Now we have

mg - \frac{1}{2}ma = ma

mg = \frac{3}{2}ma

a = \frac{2}{3}g

Also from above equation the tension force in the string is

T = \frac{1}{2}ma

T = \frac{mg}{3}

You are playing a game called "Will It Float?" In this game, you are given a large, square can of tuna. If you know the density
Delicious77 [7]
The only information you would need to decide if the can will float is the density of the can, which requires knowing the mass and volume. If the density of the can is less than one, the can will float. if it is greater than one, it will not float, as water's density is one.

An Object moving at a velocity of 30 m/s slows to a stop in 7 seconds. What was its acceleration
ollegr [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.29 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken acting on it can be found by using the formula

acceleration =  \frac{velocity}{time}  \\

From the question

velocity = 30 m/s

time = 7 s

We have

acceleration =  \frac{30}{7}  \\  = 4.285714...

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.29 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

If a 110 kg go-cart traveling at a velocity of 13.41 m/s has a collision with an impulse of 615 Nxs, what is the
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

5.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass = 110 kg

Initial velocity: u = 13.41 m/s

Force = 615 N

Time(t) = 1 s

Now, the formula for force is;

Force = mass x acceleration

Thus;

615 = 110 × acceleration

\Acceleration(a) = 615/110 = 5.591 m/s²

Now, using Newton's first law of motion, we can find acceleration (a). Thus;

v = u + at

v = 13.41 + (5.591 × 1)

v ≈ 19 m/s

So,the change in velocity is;

Final velocity(v) - Initial velocity(u) = 19 - 13.41 = 5.59 m/s

A rocket moves through outer space a 12,000 m/s. At this time, how much time would be required to travel the distance from Earth
nexus9112 [7]
12000 m/s = 12 km/s. Now to go 380000 km, it will take some time. How much time is given in the formula 12km/s. You go 12 kilometers every second. So you take \frac{380000km}{12km/s} and that gives you 31,666.666 seconds.
