What is the algebraic sign (+ or -) for designating the distance and velocity vectors for an object in free fall?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

positive- downward

negative- upward

Explanation:

A vector is a quantity described by a magnitude and a direction.

The algebraic sign, positive (+) and negative (-) are used to designate the distance and velocity vectors for an object in free fall where positive represents downward  and negative represents an upward movement of the object.

Hence, the correct answer is "positive- downward  and negative- upward".

Professional baseball pitchers deliver pitches that can reach the blazing speed of 100 mph (miles per hour). A local team has drafted an up-and-coming, left-handed pitcher who can consistently pitch at 42.24 m/s (94.50 mph).
A. Assuming a pitched ball has a mass of 0.1420 kg and has this speed just before a batter makes contact with it, how much kinetic energy does the ball have?
B. How high would the ball need to be dropped from to attain the same energy (neglect air resistance)?

Answers

Answer:

A. ) K =126. 7 J

B. ) h= 91.1 m.

Explanation:

A)

Assuming no air resistance, once released by the pitcher, the speed must keep constant through all the trajectory, so the kinetic energy of the ball can be expressed as follows:

       [tex]K = \frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2} = \frac{1}{2}*0.142 kg*(42.24m/s)^{2} = 126.7 J (1)[/tex]

B)

Neglecting air resistance, total mechanical energy must be the same at any point, so, if we choose the ground level as the zero reference level for the gravitational potential energy, and assuming that the ball attains this kinetic energy just before striking ground, this value must be equal to the gravitational potential energy just before be dropped, so we can write the following equality:

        [tex]U_{o} = K_{f} = 126. 7 J (2)[/tex]

        ⇒ m*g*h = 126. 7 J

Solving for h, we get:

       [tex]h = \frac{K_{f}}{m*g} = \frac{126.7J}{0.1420kg*9.8m/s2} = 91.1 m (3)[/tex]

An athlete completes 1 laps around a track with a radius of 25 meters in 180 seconds. What is the magnitude of the athlete's tangential velocity?

Answers

Answer:

0.872m/s

Explanation:

Tangential velocity is given by the formula,

[tex]v= 2\pi r/ t[/tex]

In the question given,

radius= 25meters

time= 180secs

pie= 3.14

number of laps= 1

The magnitude of tangential velocity equals;

[tex]\frac{1lap* 2 *3.14 *25m}{180secs}[/tex]

v = 157m/180secs

Therefore, the magnitude of the tangential velocity

=0.872m/secs

A disk between vertebrae in the spine is subjected to a shearing force of 600 N. Find its shear deformation, taking it to have the shear modulus of 1 x 109 N/m2. The disk is equivalent to a solid cylinder 0.700 cm high and 4.00 cm in diameter.

Answers

Answer:

3.34×10^-6m

Explanation:

The shear modulus can also be regarded as the rigidity. It is the ratio of shear stress and shear strain

can be expressed as

shear stress/(shear strain)

= (F/A)/(Lo/ . Δx)

Stress=Force/Area

The sheear stress can be expressed below as

F Lo /(A *Δx)

Where A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

F=shearing force force= 600N

Δx= distance

S= shear modulus= 1 x 109 N/m2

Lo= Lenght of the cylinder= 0.700 cm=7×10^-2m

If we make Δx subject of the formula we have

Δx= FLo/(SA)

If we substitute the Area A we have

Δx= FLo/[S(πd^2/4]

Δx=4FLo/(πd^2 *S)

If we input the values we have

(4×600×0.7×10^-2)/10^9 × 3.14 ×(4×10^-2)^2

= 3.35×10^-6m

Therefore, its shear deformation is 3.35×10^-6m

A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

= [3.142×(4×10^-2)^2]/4

Determine the distance between a newly discovered planet and its single moon if the orbital period of the moon is 1.2 Earth days and the mass of the planet it orbits is 9.38E24 kg.You may assume the orbit to be circular.

Answers

Answer:

The distance is [tex]r = 55430496 \ m[/tex]  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The period of the moon [tex]T = 1.2 days = 1.2 * 24 * 3600 = 103680 \ s[/tex]

    The mass of the planet is  [tex]m_p = 9.38*10^{24} kg[/tex]

Generally the period of the moon is mathematically represented as

       [tex]T = 2 * \pi * \sqrt{ \frac{r^3 }{ G * m_p } }[/tex]

Here G is the gravitational constant with value

        [tex]G = 6.67 *10^{-11} \ N \cdot m^2/kg^2[/tex]

=>   [tex]T = 2 * \pi * \sqrt{ \frac{r^3 }{ G * m_p } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]103680 = 2 * 3.142 * \sqrt{ \frac{r^3 }{ 6.67*10^{-11} * 9.38*10^{24} } }[/tex]

=>    [tex]272218492.31 = \frac{r^3}{ 6.67 *10^{-11} * 9.38*10^{24}}[/tex]

=>    [tex]r = \sqrt[3]{ 1.7031241*10^{23}}[/tex]j

=>   [tex]r = 55430496 \ m[/tex]

d. the object's mass remains the same and its weight decreases

Answers

Explanation:

the answer is D.

have a great day !

As the distance between an object and the center of the Earth is increased,  the object's mass remains the same and its weight decreases. Therefore, option D is correct.

What is mass ?

A body's mass is an inherent quality. Prior to the discovery of the atom and particle physics, it was widely considered to be tied to the amount of matter in a physical body.

Since the mass of the Earth is evenly distributed throughout its volume, the weight of an object increases with increasing distance from the planet's center until the object lies beneath the surface (in a hole or tunnel). When an object is above the surface, its weight falls as it gets farther from the Earth's center.

when the separation between a point and the Earth's center widens. The weight of the object drops while its mass stays constant.

Thus, option D is correct.

What is the magnitude of the centripetal force that must be applied in order for a 2kg ball on a 2.0 m string to spin with uniform circular motion at 5.0 m/s

Answers

The ball needs to accelerate with a magnitude a (pointed towards the center of the circle) of

a = (5.0 m/s)² / (2.0 m) = 12.5 m/s²

Then the required tension F in the string would need to be

F = (2 kg) (12.5 m/s²) = 25 N

because centripetal force equals mv^2/r, we can plug in our known values to result in (2(5)^2)/2, which is equal to 25 n.

Answer:

v=59[m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of energy, which tells us that energy is transformed from Kinetic to potential or vice versa. At the moment when the car is at the top before falling down the cliff, we have the car moving at speed 50 [m/s] (kinetic energy) also it is 50 [m] above ground level (potential energy).

[tex]E_{k1}+E_{p1}=E_{k2}\\[/tex]

where:

Ek1 = kinetic energy before falling [J]

Ep1 = potential energy before falling [J]

Ek2 = kinetic energy in the ground [J]

The potential energy can be calculated by means of the following equation.

[tex]E_{p}=m*g*h[/tex]

where:

m = mass = 500 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 50 [m]

Whereas the kinetic energy can be calculated by means of the following equation.

[tex]E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}[/tex]

where:

v = velocity = 50 [m/s]

Now replacing in the general equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} *500*(50)^{2} +500*9.81*50=\frac{1}{2} *500*v^{2}\\625000+245250=250*v^{2} \\250*v^{2} =870250\\v=\sqrt{870250/250} \\v=59[m/s][/tex]

Bobbie is on a skateboard riding it down a hill. As he approaches the hill his velocity is 26 m/s. While he travels down the hill he realizes his acceleration is 6 m/s2. At the bottom of the hill he finds out that his velocity is 102 m/s. What time will be required to create this change in velocity?

Answers

Answer:

Bobbie will need 12.7 seconds.

Explanation:

Constant Acceleration Motion

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes uniformly in time. If the speed changes from vo to vf in a time t, then the acceleration is:

[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}[/tex]

The question states Bobbie is riding on a skateboard down a hill, starting from vo=26 m/s with an acceleration of a=6\ m/s^2 until his speed is 102 m/s. We are required to find the time needed to create that change of velocity.

Solving for t:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{v_f-v_o}{a}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{102-26}{6}=\frac{76}{6}[/tex]

t = 12.7 s

Bobbie will need 12.7 seconds.
