B. When the ball makes contact with the floor.

Response:

E. When the ball comes to complete rest

Explanation:

A basketball is in a balanced state when the net force acting on it equals zero and its velocity remains constant over time.

Therefore, when the ball begins to fall, its velocity increases which indicates an unbalanced situation.

When the ball hits the ground, it rebounds in the opposite direction meaning that the velocity is changing, which is also unbalanced.

When the ball is traveling through the air, gravity causes its speed to vary, so this is yet another unbalanced state.

Thus, the point where the basketball is balanced is when it is at rest in the coach's hands since at that moment its speed is steady.

A champion athlete can produce one horsepower (746 W) for a short period of time. The number of 16-cm-high steps a 70-kg athlete
Sav [3071]

Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

Based on the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P stands for power, m is mass, g denotes gravity, h is height, and t represents time.

Rearranging the equation to solve for h, we have:

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Providing values: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Given constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

By substituting into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

Calculating number of steps: 6525/16

The resulting number of steps = 407 steps

Compare the momentum of a 6,300-kg elephant walking 0.11 m/s and a 50-kg dolphin swimming 10.4 m/s. your answer
inna [3004]
<span>First, apply Newton's second law of motion: F = ma. Force equals mass times acceleration. This law describes force as the product of mass multiplied by acceleration (which is different from velocity). As acceleration is the variation in velocity over time, we have force = (mass * velocity) / time, leading us to conclude that (mass * velocity) / time will equal momentum / time. Hence, we derive the equation mass * velocity = momentum. Momentum = mass * velocity. For the elephant, with a mass of 6300 kg and velocity of 0.11 m/s, Momentum = 6300 * 0.11, resulting in P = 693 kg (m/s). For the dolphin, having a mass of 50 kg and moving at 10.4 m/s, Momentum = 50 * 10.4, yielding P = 520 kg (m/s). Thus, the elephant has a greater momentum (P) due to its larger size.</span>

Two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. The graphs show the momentum of eac
inna [3004]

Explanation:

The term 'collision' refers to the interaction between two objects. There are two distinct types of collisions: elastic and inelastic.

In this scenario, two identical carts are heading towards each other at the same speed, resulting in a collision. In an inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved before and after the incident, but kinetic energy is lost.

After the event, both objects combine and move together at a single velocity.

The graph representing a perfectly inelastic collision is attached, illustrating that both carts move together at the same speed afterward.

Digital bits on a 12.0-cm diameter audio CD are encoded along an outward spiraling path that starts at radius R1=2.5cm and finis
Sav [3071]

Answer:

The overall length of the spiral, designated as L, is calculated to be 5378.01 m

Explanation:

Provided information:

Inner radius R1=2.5 cm

and outer radius R2= 5.8 cm.

The thickness of the spiral winding is (d) =1.6 \mu m = 1.6x 10^{-6} m

The total length of the spiral can be computed as

= \frac{(Area\ of\ the\ spiraing\ portion\ on\ the\ disk)}{d}

=\frac{\pi *(R_2)^2 - \pi*(R_1)^2}{d}

=\frac{\pi *(0.058)^2 - \pi*(0.025)^2}{1.6*10^{-6}}

= 5378.01 m
