A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d

irection at a velocity of +4 meters/second with respect to himself. If the ball lands after 30 seconds, about how far does it land horizontally from the point at which it was released?
A. 120 meters
B. 125 meters
C. 300 meters
D. 420 meters

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given mg = 4N .

m = 4 / g

At the bottom of the swing let centripetal acceleration be a

T - mg = ma

9 - 4 = ma

5 = 4 a  / g

a =  5g / 4

The pail is rotated at a constant rate so it has the minimum speed at all points along its circular path. The water has mass m.
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pail is rotated at a constant rate in vertical circular path  so it has the minimum speed at all points along its circular path . That means at top position the velocity is almost zero. In that case the centripetal force at top position will be provided by its weight or

mg = mv² / r ( r is radius of  vertical circular path )

v = √ rg

At the bottom position its velocity will be increased due to loss of potential energy

so 1/2 m V² = 1/2 m v² + mg x 2r  

V =√ 5 gr

If R be the reaction force at the bottom by bottom of pail

R - mg = mV² / r

R = mg +mV² / r

= mg + m x 5gr / r

R = 6mg

This is the magnitude of the force exerted by the water on the bottom of the pail .

Neha and Suhani are playing with two identical pendulums. They leave the bob from a certain position and wait for it to return t
Anika [276]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

The pendulum bob would return at the same time because the initial angle a pendulum bob is dropped does not affect it's period (the time it takes for the pendulum to move back and forth), however the one with a larger angle move faster but would eventually arrive at the same "starting point" due to varying displacements made.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

s = 23.72 m

v = 21.56 m/s²  

Explanation:

given

time to reach the ground (t) = 2.2 second

we know that

a) s = u t + 0.5 g t²

   u = 0 m/s

   g = 9.8 m/s²

   s = 0 + 0.5 × 9.8 × 2.2²

  s = 23.72 m

b) impact velocity

      v = √(2gh)

      v = √(2× 9.8 × 23.72)    

      v =  √464.912

      v = 21.56 m/s²
