Answer:

a) $v_{o} =16m/s$

b) $v=9.8m/s$

c) $\beta =-35.46º$

Explanation:

According to the problem, the distance from the building where the ball hits is 16m, and its final elevation exceeds the initial height by 8m.

With this information, we can compute the ball’s starting speed.

a) Let's first assess the horizontal trajectory.

$x=v_{ox}t$

$x=v_{o}cos(60)t$

$v_{o}=\frac{x}{tcos(60)}=\frac{16m}{tcos(60)}$ (1)

This gives us our initial equation.

Next, we need to examine the vertical trajectory.

$y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y_{o}+8=y_{o}+v_{o}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2$

Utilizing $v_{o}$ in our first equation (1)

$8=\frac{16}{tcos(60)}sin(60)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2$

$\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2=16tan(60)-8$

Now let’s solve for t.

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2(16tan(60)-8)}{9.8} } =2s$

The ball takes two seconds to reach the adjacent building, allowing us to compute its initial speed.

$v_{o}=\frac{16m}{(2s)cos(60)}=16m/s$

b) To determine the velocity magnitude just before impact, we must calculate both x and y components.

$v_{x}=v_{ox}+at=16cos(60)=8m/s$

$v_{y}=v_{oy}+gt=16sin(60)-(9.8)(2)=-5.7m/s$

The computed velocity magnitude is:

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}=\sqrt{(8m/s)^2+(-5.7m/s)^2}=9.8m/s$

c) The ball's angle is:

$\beta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_{y} }{v_{x}})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.7}{8})=-35.46º$

In an amusement park rocket ride, cars are suspended from 3.40-m cables attached to rotating arms at a distance of 5.90 m from t

ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

The rotational angular speed is measured at 1.34 rad/s.

Explanation:

Considering the following parameters,

Length = 3.40 m

Distance = 5.90 m

Angle = 45.0°

We are tasked with finding the angular speed of rotation

Using the balance equation

Horizontal component

$T\cos\theta=mg$

$T=\dfrac{mg}{\cos\theta}$

Vertical component

$T\sin\theta=m\omega^2 r$

Substituting the tension value

$mg\tan\theta=m\omega^2(d+L\sin\theta)$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{g\tan\theta}{(d+L\sin\theta)}}$

Substituting the value into the equation

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8\tan45.0}{5.90+3.40\sin45.0}}$

$\omega=1.34\ rad/s$

Thus, the angular speed of rotation computes to 1.34 rad/s.

When a charge is placed on a metal sphere, it ends up in equilibrium at the outer surface. Use this information to determine the

Maru [3345]

Answer:

a

The value at a point inside is Zero

b

The electric field is $E = 2.7*10^{6} \ N/C$

Explanation:

We know from the problem that

The charge magnitude is $q = 3.0 \mu C = 3.0 *10^{-6} \ C$

The radius of the spherical ball is $r = 5.0 \ mm = 0.005 \ m$

According to Gauss’s law, the enclosed charge within a conductor is zero which indicates that the electric field within the spherical ball is zero

On the outside, the electric field around the spherical ball is mathematically expressed as

$E = \frac{kq}{ a^2}$

Here a denotes a point outside the spherical ball with its value of $a = 10 \ cm = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1 \ m$

and k represents Coulomb's constant, valued at

$k = 9*10^{9}\ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.$

=> $E = \frac{ 3 *10^{-6} * 9*10^9 }{ (0.1)^2}$

=> $E = 2.7*10^{6} \ N/C$

A closed system of mass 10 kg undergoes a process during which there is energy transfer by work from the system of 0.147 kJ per

Softa [3030]

Result: -50.005 kJ

Details:

Provided Data

mass of the system = 10 kg

work done = 0.147 kJ/kg

Elevation change $(\Delta h)=-50 m$

initial speed $(v_1)=15 m/s$

Final Speed $(v_2)=30 m/s$

Specific internal Energy $(\Delta U)=-5 kJ/kg$

according to the first Law of thermodynamics

$Q-W=\Delta H$

$\Delta H=\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U$

where KE represents kinetic energy

PE indicates potential energy

U denotes internal Energy

$\Delta H=\frac{m(v_2^2-v_1^2)}{2}+mg(\Delta h)+\Delta U$

$Q=W+\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U$

$Q=0.147\times 10+\frac{10\cdot (30^2-15^2)}{2}+10\cdot 9.81\cdot (-5)-5\times 10$

Q = 1.47 + 3.375 - 4.850 - 50

Q = -50.005 kJ
