Answer:

Velocity, v = 2.50 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 7.26 kg

Height above the ground, h = 2.1 m

Mechanical energy of the ball, T = 172.1 J

To find,

The velocity of the ball at the given point.

Solution,

The sum of potential energy and the kinetic energy is called the mechanical energy of an object. It is given by :

T=K+P

K is the kinetic energy

P is the potential energy

T=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh

On rearranging the above equation,

v^2=\dfrac{2(T-mgh)}{m}

v^2=\dfrac{2(172.1-7.26\times 9.8\times 2.1)}{7.26}

v = 2.50 meters

Therefore, the velocity of the ball at the given point is 2.50 m/s.

Fofino [41]

Explanation:

Initial time, t₁ = 2:30 pm

Final time, t₂ = 2:30:45

We need to find the motion of students in terms of time. Final time is 45 seconds more than the initial time.

Change in time,

\Delta t=t_2-t_1\\\\\Delta t=2:30:45-2.30\\\\\Delta t=45\ s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

y = 54.9 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the relationship between the work of the friction force and mechanical energy.

Let's look for work

      W = -fr d

The negative sign is because Lafourcade rubs always opposes the movement

On the inclined part, of Newton's second law

Y Axis  

      N - W cos θ  = 0

The equation for the force of friction is

      fr = μ N

      fr = μ mg cos θ

We replace at work

     W = - μ m g cos θ  d

Mechanical energy in the lower part of the embankment

      Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

The mechanical energy in the highest part, where it stopped

     Em_{f} = U = m g y

     W = ΔEm =  Em_{f} - Em₀

    - μ m g d cos θ = m g y - ½ m v²

Distance d and height (y) are related by trigonometry

     sin θ = y / d

     y = d sin θ

   

    - μ m g d cos θ = m g d sin θ - ½ m v²

We calculate the distance traveled

     d (g syn θ + μ g cos θ) = ½ v²

     d = v²/2 g (sintea + myy cos tee)

     d = 9.8 12.6 2/2 9.8 (sin16 + 0.128 cos 16)

     d = 1555.85 /7.8145

     d = 199.1 m

Let's use trigonometry to find the height

      sin 16 = y / d

      y = d sin 16

      y = 199.1 sin 16

      y = 54.9 m

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Answer:

15.67 seconds

Explanation:

Using first equation of Motion

Final Velocity= Initial Velocity + (Acceleration * Time)  

v= u + at

v=3

u=50

a= - 4 (negative acceleration or deceleration)  

3= 50 +( -4 * t)

-47/-4 = t

Time = 15.67 seconds

What is the acceleration during the pushing-off phase, in m/27 Express your answer in meters per second squared. A bush baby, an
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

a = 12.78 g's

Explanation:

Height reached by the object after push off is given as

H = 2.3 m

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s

now we have

0 - v^2 = 2(-9.81)(2.3)

v = 6.72 m/s

now we know that this push last for total distance of 0.18 m

so during the push we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

6.72^2 - 0 = 2a(0.18)

a = 125.35 m/s^2

now in terms of g = 9.81 m/s/s we have

a = \frac{125.35}{9.81} gs

a = 12.78 g's
