Explanation:
We are given that
Mass of football, m=0.5 kg
Initial velocity ,u=15m/s
Final speed ,v=0
Time, t=0.02 s
a. We have to find the impulse delivered to the ball.
We know that
Impulse=Change in momentum
I=m(v-u)
Using the formula
[tex]I=0.5(0-15)=-7.5 kg m/s[/tex]
Hence, the impulse delivered to the ball=-7.5 kg m/s
(b)
We know that
Force,[tex]F=\frac{|mpulse}{time}[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]F=\frac{-7.5}{0.02}=-375 N[/tex]

Answer:
hello your question has some missing parts
A juggler performs in a room whose ceiling is 3 m above the level of his hands. He throws a ball vertically upward so that it just reaches the ceiling.
answer : c) 0.39 sec
d) 2.25 m
e) 1.92 m/sec
Explanation:
The initial velocity of the first ball = 7.67 m/sec ( calculated )
Time required for first ball to reach ceiling = 0.78 secs ( calculated )
Determine how long after the second ball is thrown do the two balls pass each other
Distance travelled by first ball downwards when it meets second ball can be expressed as : d = 1/2 gt^2 = 9.8t^2 / 2
hence d = 4.9t^2 ----- ( 1 )
Initial speed of second ball = first ball initial speed = 7.67 m/sec
3 - d = 7.67t - 4.9t ---- ( 2 )
equating equation 1 and 2
3 = 7.67t therefore t = 0.39 sec
Determine how far the balls are above the Juggler's hands ( when the balls pass each other )
form equation 1 ;
d = 4.9 t^2 = 4.9 *(0.39)^2 = 0.75 m
therefore the height the balls are above the Juggler's hands is
3 - d = 3 - 0.75 = 2.25 m
determine their velocities when the pass each other
velocity = displacement / time
velocity = d / t = 0.75 / 0.39 sec = 1.92 m/sec
An object of height 2.7 cm is placed 29 cm in front of a diverging lens of focal length 16 cm. Behind the diverging lens, and 12 cm from it, there is a converging lens of the same focal length.
A. Find the location of the final image, in centimeters beyond the converging lens.
B. What is the magnification of the final image?
Answer:
A) q = -8.488 cm , B) m = 0.29
Explanation:
A) For this exercise in geometric optics, we will use the equation of the constructor
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]
where p and q are the distance to the object and image, respectively and f is the focal length
in our case the distance the object is p = 29 cm the focal length of a diverging lens is negative and indicates that it is f = - 12 cm
[tex]\frac{1}{q} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{p}[/tex]
we calculate
[tex]\frac{1}{q} = - \frac{1}{12} - \frac{1}{29}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{q}[/tex] = - 0.1178
q = -8.488 cm
the negative sign indicates that the image is virtual
B) the magnification is given
[tex]m = \frac{h'}{h} = - \frac{q}{p}[/tex]
we substitute
m = [tex]- \frac{-8.488}{29}[/tex]
m = 0.29
the positive sign indicates that the image is right
car is moving at 40 m/s. At 10 meters the driver spots a deer on the road and instantly steps on the brakes. If the car is 400 kg how much force must the breaks exert to stop the car in time?
Answer:
32000 N
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s
Distance (s) = 10 m
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg
Force (F) =?
Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:
Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s
Distance (s) = 10 m
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Acceleration (a) =?
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)
0 = 1600 + 20a
Collect like terms
0 – 1600 = 20a
–1600 = 20a
Divide both side by –1600
a = –1600 / 20
a = –80 m/s²
The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.
Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg
Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²
Force (F) =?
F = ma
F = 400 × –80
F = – 32000 N
NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.

Ellie is shooting a free throw. At the instant the ball leaves her hand the ball is traveling at a velocity of 9 m/sec, at an angle above the horizontal of 29.5 degrees. If you are standing beneath the basketball rim, videotaping, you can only see the vertical motion of the ball, since its horizontal motion is straight towards you. What is the magnitude of the ball's initial vertical velocity (if you measured it using your video data, in m/sec)
Answer:
Vy = 4.43 m/s
Explanation:
given data
velocity = 9 m/sec
angle horizontal = 29.5 degrees
solution
we get here ball initial vertical velocity will be here
Vy = v sinθ ...........................1
put here value and we get
Vy = 9 × sin(29.5 )
Vy = 4.43 m/s
How does speed and mass effect kinetic energy ?
Answer:
in fact, kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass: if you double the mass, then you double the kinetic energy. Second, the faster something is moving, the greater the force it is capable of exerting and the greater energy it possesses. ... Thus a modest increase in speed can cause a large increase in kinetic energy.
Explanation:
Answer: The more mass of an object has, the more Kinetic energy it has.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is comparable to mass. If you double the mass then you double the kinetic energy. The faster the object is moving the greater the energy possesses. A large increase in speed can have a large increase in kinetic energy.

A heavy book is launched horizontally out a window from the first floor, a height, h, above the ground, with initial velocity, v0, and it hits the ground a horizontal distance X1 away from the window. Another book is similarly launched (same initial velocity) from the second floor window, a height 2h above the ground. Where does the second book land relative to the first book
Answer:
x₂ / x₁ = √2
Explanation:
To solve this exercise we can use the projectile launch ratios, let's find the time it takes for the second book to reach the ground
y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²
as the book is thrown horizontally v_{oy} = 0, when it reaches the ground its height is zero y= 0
0 = y₀ - ½ g t²
t = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2y_o}{ g} }[/tex]
t = \sqrt{ \frac{2 \ 2h}{ g} }
with this time we calculate the horizontal distance traveled
x = v₀ t
x₂ = v₀ [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{4h}{g} }[/tex]
now let's calculate the time it takes him to get to the floor when he leaves from the first floor
t =\sqrt{ \frac{2y_o}{ g} }
the horizontal distance traveled is
x₁ = v₀ [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }[/tex]
therefore the difference in distance between the two runs is
Δx = x₂-x₁
Δx = v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{4h}{g} } - v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }
Δx = v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} } √2
Δx =√2 x₁
the relationship between the two distances is
x₂ / x₁ = √2

Answer:
4.384 * 10^13
Explanation:
Given the expression :
[(6.67 * 10^-11) * (1.99 * 10^30)] ÷ [(1.74*10^3)*(1.74*10^3)]
Applying the laws of indices
[(6.67 * 1.99) *10^(-11 + 30)] ÷ [(1.74 * 1.74) * 10^3+3]
13.2733 * 10^19 ÷ 3.0276 * 10^6
(13.2733 / 3.0276) * 10^(19 - 6)
4.3840996 * 10^13
= 4.384 * 10^13
Answer:
[tex]g=4.38*10^{7} m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
To solve this, we need to know the mass of the sun, and the radius of the moon
[tex]M_{s} = 1.989*10^{30}kg \\R_{m} = 1737400m[/tex]
Now we can plug our values into our equation:
[tex]g=G*\frac{M_{E} }{r^{2} }[/tex]
This gives us:
[tex]g=6.67*10^{-11}*\frac{1.989*10^{30}}{1737400^{2}}[/tex]
This equals:
[tex]g=4.38*10^{7} m/s^2[/tex]
Anyone can help me out with this question ? Just number 2,
Answer:
- 21⁰C .
Explanation:
Speed of jet = 2.05 x 10³ km /h
= 2050 x 1000 / (60 x 60 ) m /s
= 569.44 m / s
Mach no represents times of speed of sound , the speed of jet
1.79 x speed of sound = 569.44
speed of sound = 318.12 m /s
speed of sound at 20⁰C = 343 m /s
Difference = 343 - 318.12 = 24.88⁰C
We know that 1 ⁰C change in temperature changes speed of sound
by .61 m /s
So a change in speed of 24.88 will be produced by a change in temperature of
24.88 / .61
= 41⁰C
temperature = 20 - 41 = - 21⁰C .
The height above the ground of a stone thrown upwards is given by s(t), where t is measured in seconds. After 1secondnothing,the height of the stone is 47feet above the ground, and after 1.5seconds, the height of the stone is 54feet above the ground. Evaluate s(1)and s(1.5),and then find the average velocity of the stone over the time interval [1,1.5].
Answer:
v = 14 ft/s
Explanation:
By definition, the average velocity, is just the rate of change of the position, with respect to time, which can be written as follows:[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac{x_{f}-x_{o}}{t_{f} - t_{o}} (1)[/tex]
Defining the vertical position as the y-coordinate, with the origin at ground level, and the upward direction as positive, we can write (1) as follows:[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta t} = \frac{y_{f}-y_{o}}{t_{f} - t_{o}} (2)[/tex]
where yf = 54 ft, y₀ = 47 ft, tif = 1.5 s, t₀ = 1s.Replacing in (2) we get:[tex]v_{avg} = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta t} = \frac{y_{f}-y_{o}}{t_{f} - t_{o}} = \frac{7ft}{0.5s} = 14 ft/s (3)[/tex]
Two pieces of amber are hung from threads. Piece A is charged by rubbing piece A with fur. Piece B is charged by rubbing piece B with silk. Nylon is used to rub and charge a third piece of amber. Piece A and B are both repelled by the third piece of amber. This means:____.
Answer:
ieces A and B must also have the same type of charges
Explanation:
In electrostatics, charges of the same sign repel and charges of different signs attract.
If we apply this to our case, we have that part A and C repel each other, therefore they have the same type of charge.
Also part A and C repel each other, therefore they have the same type of charge.
If we use the transitive property of mathematics, pieces A and B must also have the same type of charges
Two spherical objects are separated by a distance that is 1.08 x 10-3 m. The objects are initially electrically neutral and are very small compared to the distance between them. Each object acquires the same negative charge due to the addition of electrons. As a result, each object experiences an electrostatic force that has a magnitude of 3.89 x 10-21 N. How many electrons did it take to produce the charge on one of the objects
Answer:
the charge on the object is 71.043×10^-20 C and the number of electron is 4.44
Explanation:
from coulumbs law, The force that is acting over both charge can be computed as
F=( kq1q2)/r^2..............eqn(1)
Where
F=electrostatic force= 3.89 x 10-21 N
k= column constant= 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2
q1 and q2= magnitude of the charges
r= distance between the charges= 1.08 x 10-3 m.
Since both charges are experiencing the same force, eqn(1) can be written as
F=( kq^2)/r^2.
We can make q subject of the formula
q= √(Fr^2)/k
= √[(3.89 x 10^-21× (1.08 x 10^-3)^2]/8.99 x 10^9
q= 71.043×10^-20 C
Hence, the charge is 71.043×10^-20 C
From quantization law, the number of electron can be computed as
N=q/e
Where
N= number of electron
q= charges
=1.6×10^-19C
N=71.043×10^-20/1.6×10^-19
=4.44
Hence, the charge on the object is 71.043×10^-20 C and the number of electron is 4.44

Suppose you were digging a well into saturated sediments. Why is the sediment’s permeability an important factor in deciding where to put your well?
Answer:
The importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.
Explanation:
When digging a well into saturated sediments, the possibility of the sediment with either little saturation or full saturation being able to provide steady water supply will be limited by how permeable it is. Now, the importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.
Consider a swimmer that swims a complete round-trip lap of a 50 m long pool in 100 seconds. The swimmer's... average speed is 0 m/s and average velocity is 0 m/s. average speed is 0.5 m/s and average velocity is 0.5 m/s. average speed is 1 m/s and average velocity is 0 m/s. average speed is 0 m/s and average velocity is 1 m/s.What is the swimmers average speed and average velocity?
Answer:
average speed is 1 m/s and average velocity is 0 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that :
Length of round trip = 50 m
Time taken = 100 seconds
The average speed :
Total distance / total time taken
Length of complete round trip :
(50 + 50) m, total. Distance = 100 m
100 / 100 = 1m/s
The average velocity :
Total Displacement / total time taken
Total Displacement of round trip = end point - start point = 0
0 / 100 = 0
Average speed is 1 m/s and average velocity is 0 m/s.
The average speed is defined as the ratio of distance to time. Speed is a scalar quantity hence it does not take direction into account while velocity is a vector quantity hence it takes direction into account.
The speed is obtained from;
Speed = Distance/time = 2(50 m)/100 s = 1 m/s.
The velocity is 0 m/s since it is complete round-trip lap.

To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:
Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N
Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Fₙ = 20 – 15
Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction
From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.
