Figure 9-47 gives an overhead view of the path taken by a 0.165 kgcue ball as it bounces from a rail of a pool table. The ball’s initial speed is 2.00 m/s, and the angle θ1is30.0°. The bounce reverses the y component of the ball’s velocity but does not alter the x component. What are (a) angle θ2and (b) the change in the ball’s linear momentum in unit-vector notation? (The fact that the ball rolls is irrelevant to the problem.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The value of the angle θ2is,θ2=30.0°

b) The change in the ball’s linear momentum,

P=-0.571kg.m/sjÁåœ.

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the given information

The mass of a cue ball,m=0.165 kg .

The initial velocity of a ball,v1=2.00m/s .

The angle given is,θ1=30°.

02

Concept and Formula used for the given question

Here, we need to consider the vector nature of velocity. So, we need to calculate the components of velocity before using the equation of momentum by using the formula given below.

P=mv∆P=mv2-v1

03

(a) Calculation for the angle θ2 

As velocity is a vector quantity, we consider the components of velocity.

So, the initial velocity components are:

v1x=v1sin30°=2.00m/s×12=1.00m/sv1y=v1cos30°=2.00m/s×32=1.73m/s

We have given that; the x component of velocity is conserved.

So,v1x=v2xand hence

v1sinθ1=v1sinθ2

This implies that,θ1=θ2=30.0°.

04

(b) Calculation for the change in the ball’s linear momentum in unit-vector notation

As the velocity along the x-axis is conserved, the momentum along x is also conserved.

So, we get,Px=0

So, we need to consider the change in momentum only in the y direction.

Also, it is given that the bounce reverses the y component of velocity. So,

v2y=-1.73m/sPy=m×v2y-v1y=0.165kg×-1.73m/s-1.73m/s=-0.572kg.m/s

So, the change in momentum can be expressed in component form as,

P=(-0.572 kgâ‹…m/s)jÁåœ

In Fig. 9-79, an 80 kgman is on a ladder hanging from a balloon that has a total mass of 320 kg(including the basket passenger). The balloon is initially stationary relative to the ground. If the man on the ladder begins to climb at 2.5m/srelative to the ladder, (a) in what direction and (b) at what speed does the balloon move? (c) If the man then stops climbing, what is the speed of the balloon?

Two blocks of masses1.0 kgand3.0 kgare connected by a spring and rest on a frictionless surface. They are given velocities toward each other such that the 1.0 kgblock travels initially at 1.7 m/stoward the center of mass, which remains at rest. What is the initial speed of the other block?

A 6100 kgrocket is set for vertical firing from the ground. If the exhaust speed is 1200 m/s, how much gas must be ejected each second if the thrust (a) is to equal the magnitude of the gravitational force on the rocket and (b) is to give the rocket an initial upward acceleration of 21m/s2?

Figure 9-23 shows an overhead view of three particles on which external forces act. The magnitudes and directions of the forces on two of the particles are indicated. What are the magnitude and direction of the force acting on the third particle if the center of mass of the three-particle system is (a) stationary, (b) moving at a constant velocity rightward, and (c) accelerating rightward?

In fig. 9-70, two long barges are moving in the same direction in still water, one with a speed of 10 km/hand the other with a speed of 20 km/hWhile they are passing each other, coal is shoveled from the slower to the faster one at a rate of 1000 kg/min. How much additional force must be provided by the driving engines of (a) the faster barge and (b) the slower barge if neither is to change the speed? Assume that the shoveling is always perfectly side-ways and that the frictional forces between the barges and the water do not depend on the mass of the barges.
