A tennis ball bounces on the floor three times. If each time it loses 22.0% of its energy due to heating, how high does it rise

after the third bounce, provided we released it 2.3 m from the floor?

Answer:

H = 109.14 cm

Explanation:

Given,                                                            

Assume that the total energy equals 1 unit.                                

Energy remaining after the first collision = 0.78 x 1 unit

Balance after the first impact = 0.78 units

Remaining energy after the second impact = 0.78 ^2 units

Balance after the second impact = 0.6084 units

Remaining energy after the third impact = 0.78 ^3 units

Balance after the third impact = 0.475 units

The height reached after the third collision is equivalent to the remaining energy.

Let H denote the height achieved after three bounces.

0.475 (m g h) = m g H                  

H = 0.475 x h                                    

H = 0.475 x 2.3 m                          

H = 1.0914 m                      

H = 109.14 cm

<span>We will apply the momentum-impulse theorem here. The total momentum along the x-direction is defined as p_(f) = p_(1) + p_(2) + p_(3) = 0.
Therefore, p_(1x) = m1v1 = 0.2 * 2 = 0.4. Additionally, p_(2x) = m2v2 = 0 and p_(3x) = m3v3 = 0.1 *v3, where v3 represents the unknown speed and m3 signifies the mass of the third object, which has an unspecified velocity.
In the same way, for the particle of 235g, the y-component of the total momentum is described with p_(fy) = p_(1y) + p_(2y) + p_(3y) = 0.
Thus, p_(1y) = 0, p_(2y) = m2v2 = 0.235 * 1.5 = 0.3525 and p_(3y) = m3v3 = 0.1 * v3, where m3 is the mass of the third piece.
Consequently, p_(fx) = p_(1x) + p_(2x) + p_(3x) = 0.4 + 0.1v3; yielding v3 = 0.4/-0.1 = - 4.
Similarly, p_(fy) = 0.3525 + 0.1v3; thus v3 = - 0.3525/0.1 = -3.525.
Therefore, the x-component of the speed of the third piece is v_3x = -4 and the y-component is v_3y = 3.525.
The overall speed is calculated as follows: resultant = âš (-4)^2 + (-3.525)^2 = 5.335</span>

Definamos h como la distancia que hay desde el borde del pozo hasta la superficie del agua (en metros).

Consideremos la gravedad g como 9.8 m/s² y despreciemos la resistencia del aire.

La velocidad inicial vertical del guijarro es nula.
Ya que el guijarro impacta el agua tras 1.5 segundos, entonces:
h = 0.5 * (9.8 m/s²) * (1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Resultado: 11.025 m

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity I decreases is proportional t
Keith_Richards [2256]

Response:

The intensity of light 18 feet underwater is about 0.02%

Clarification:

Employing Lambert's law

Let dI / dt = kI, where k is a proportionality factor, I represents the intensity of incident light, and t indicates the thickness of the medium

Then dI / I = kdt

Taking logarithms,

ln(I) = kt + ln C

I = Ce^kt

At t=0, I=I(0) implies C=I(0)

I = I(0)e^kt

At t=3 & I=0.25I(0), we find 0.25=e^3k

Solving for k gives k = ln(0.25)/3

k = -1.386/3

k = -0.4621

I = I(0)e^(-0.4621t)

I(18) = I(0)e^(-0.4621*18)

I(18) = 0.00024413I(0)

The intensity of light 18 feet underwater is about 0.2%
