two people, each with a mass of 70 kg, are wearing inline skates and are holding opposite ends of a 15m rope. One person pulls f

orward on the rope by moving hand over hand and gradually reeling in more of the rope. In doing so, he exerts a force of 35N [backwards] on the rope. This causes him to accelerate toward the other person. Assuming that the friction acting on the skaters is negligible, how long will it take for them to meet? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

7.75 s

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

35 N = (70 kg) a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Given v₀ = 0 m/s and Δx = 15 m:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(15 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.5 m/s²) t²

t = 7.75 s

1. What is the momentum of a golf ball with a mass of 62 g moving at 73 m/s?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.53 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 62 g = 0.062 kg

velocity = 73 m/s

We have

momentum = 0.062 × 73 = 4.526

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.53 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 4.0 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.9 m/s

Explanation:

When both balls collide, they have spent the same time for their motions.

Motion of steel ball

This is purely under gravity. It is vertical.

Initial velocity, <em>u </em>= 0 m/s

Distance, <em>s</em> = 4.0 m - 1.2 m = 2.8 m

Acceleration, <em>a</em> = g

Using the equation of motion

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

2.8 \text{ m} = 0+\dfrac{gt^2}{2}

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}}

Motion of plastic ball

This has two components: a vertical and a horizontal.

The vertical motion is under gravity.

Considering the vertical motion,

Initial velocity, <em>u </em>= ?

Distance, <em>s</em> = 1.2 m

Acceleration, <em>a</em> = -<em>g                   </em> (It is going up)

Using the equation of motion

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

1.2\text{ m} = ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Substituting the value of <em>t</em> from the previous equation,

1.2\text{ m} = u\sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}}-\dfrac{1}{2}\times g\times\dfrac{5.6}{g}

u\sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}} = 4.0

Taking <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s²,

u = \dfrac{4.0}{0.756} = 5.29 \text{ m/s}

This is the vertical component of the initial velocity

Considering the horizontal motion which is not accelerated,

horizontal component of the initial velocity is horizontal distance ÷ time.

u_h = \dfrac{4.4\text{ m}}{0.756\text{ s}} = 5.82\text{ m/s}

The initial velocity is

v_i = \sqrt{u^2+u_h^2} = \sqrt{(5.29\text{ m/s})^2+(5.82\text{ m/s})^2} = 7.9 \text{ m/s}

A steel ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 cm forms an image of an object that has been placed 1.1 cm away from the bearing’s sur
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

The image is virtual

The image is upright

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

Kindly check the diagram in the attached image below.
