You throw a tennis ball (mass 0.0570 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 15.0 m/s. Air resistance cannot be neg

lected, and the ball reaches a maximum height of 8.00 m. By how much does the total mechanical energy decrease from when the ball leaves your hand to when it reaches its maximum height? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Two trains are headed towards each other on the same track unbeknownst to the engineers. One departs San Francisco. Its average
ValentinkaMS [2425]

Answer:

7.166 hours = 430 minutes.

Explanation:

As both trains are approaching each other on the same track, their relative speed is the sum of their individual speeds. Hence, the time until they intersect (and inevitably collide) is determined by how long it takes for speeds of 65 mph and 55 mph to cover the total distance of 860 miles. One train will cover part of the distance, while the other will cover the remainder. To calculate the required time, we can apply the formula:

1 hour ---> 120 miles

X ----> 860 miles; hence X = (860 miles * 1 hour)/120 miles = 43/6 hours = 7.16666 hours. To convert this into minutes, recall that 1 hour equals 60 minutes; therefore, 43/6 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 430 minutes.

Suppose that a charged particle of diameter 1.00 micrometer moves with constant speed in an electric field of magnitude 1.00×105
Ostrovityanka [2208]
This is somewhat misleading, and I encountered the same question in my homework. An electric field strength of 1*10^5 N/C is provided, along with a drag force of 7.25*10^-11 N, and the critical detail is that it maintains a constant velocity, indicating that the particle is in equilibrium and not accelerating.
<span>To solve, utilize F=(K*Q1*Q2)/r^2 </span>
<span>You'll want to equate F with the drag force, where the electric field strength translates to (K*Q2)/r^2; substituting the values results in </span>
<span>(7.25*10^-11 N) = (1*10^5 N/C)*Q1 ---> Q1 = 7.25*10^-16 C </span>

The spring in a retractable ballpoint pen is 1.8 cm long, with a 300 N/m spring constant. When the pen is retracted, the spring
Sav [2230]

Answer:

The pen requires 7.2 mJ of energy to extend.

Explanation:

Provided:

Length = 1.8 cm

Spring constant = 300 N/m

Initial compression = 1.0 mm

Additional compression = 6.0 mm

Total compression = 1.0 + 6.0 = 7.0 mm

We need to determine the energy needed

This energy is equivalent to the variation in spring potential energy

E=PE_{2}-PE_{1}

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_{2}^2-\dfrac{1}{2}kx_{1}^2

Substitute the values into the formula

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times300\times(7.0\times10^{-3})^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times300\times(1.0\times10^{-3})^2

E=0.0072\ J

E=7.2\ mJ

Therefore, a total of 7.2 mJ is needed to extend the pen.

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant
Yuliya22 [2438]

Answer:

v_f = 13m/s + 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2} * 16 s= 13 m/s +12m/s = 25 m/s

Explanation:

In this scenario, we determine the initial velocity as follows:

v_i = 7 \frac{m}{s}

The final velocity in this instance can be expressed as:

v_f = 13 \frac{m}{s}

It is noted that transitioning from 7m/s to 13m/s takes 8 seconds. We can apply a specific kinematic equation to find the acceleration for the first part of the journey:

v_f = v_i +at

Solved for acceleration, we find:

a = \frac{v_f -v_i}{t} = \frac{13 m/s -7 m/s}{8 s}= 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2}

For the subsequent route, we assume constant acceleration and that the train continues for 16 seconds, beginning with an initial velocity of 13m/s from the previous segment, allowing us to calculate the final speed via the following formula:

v_f = v_ i +a t

Substituting into the equation yields:

v_f = 13m/s + 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2} * 16 s= 13 m/s +12m/s = 25 m/s

A window washer on a hanging platform cleans the outside of windows on a skyscraper. The washer hoists the platform up the side
kicyunya [2264]

Answer:

The acceleration of the platform is - 1.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The net force on a body causes that body to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force applied.

Setting up the force equilibrium for the configuration:

ma = 800 - mg

100a = 800 - 100×9.8

100a = - 180

100a = - 180

a = - 1.8 m/s²

This indicates that the body is falling downward.
