A ball of mass 0.4 kg flies through the air at low speed, so that air resistance is negligible.

(a) What is the net force acting on the ball while it is in motion?

(b) Which components of the ball's momentum will be changed by this force?

(c) What happens to the x component of the ball's momentum during its flight?

(d) What happens to the y component of the ball's momentum during its flight?

(e) What happens to the z component of the ball's momentum during its flight?

(f) In this situation, why is it legitimate to use the expression for average y component of velocity, vavg,x=(vix+vfx)2, to update the y component of position?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The net force is Fnet=−3.92 N.
  2. Y components of the ball's momentum will be changed force.
  3. It does not change.
  4. It decreases.
  5. It does not change.
  6. Because the formula is valid for motion at a constant rate.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

  • Mass,m=0.4 k²µ
  • The average velocity expression is,vavg,x=vix+vfx2
02

 Average velocity

Average speed is the ratio of distance covered in a particular period of time.

03

Calculation for the net force

(a)

Acceleration due to gravitya=g=−9.8 â¶Ä³¾/s2

The net force will be calculated as,

F=maF=0.4×−9.8F=−3.92 N

The net force is –3.92 N.

04

Explanation

(b)

Thenet force does have only the y-direction component, which means that only the y component will change.

05

Explanation

(c)

Thenet force does not have only an x-direction component, which means that only it does not change. It remains constant.

06

Explanation

(d)

Thenet force does not have an x and z component, so that momentum in that directions, it does not change and in the y-direction has a negative value. So it will be deceased.

07

Explanation

(e)

Thenet force does not have only a z-direction component, Due to which there is no Z moment change in the component. It remains constant.

08

Explanation

(f)

The given expression vavg,x=(vix+vfx)2in the question does not valid for the motion at a constant rate. The speed of the ball is small compared to the speed of light.

Question: A solid plastic sphere of radius R has charge -Q distributed uniformly over its surface. It is far from all other objects.

(a). Sketch the molecular polarization in the interior of the sphere and explain briefly.

(b). Calculate the potential relative to infinity at the center of the sphere.

A playground ride consists of a disk of mass M=43kgand radius R=1.7mmounted on a low-friction axle (Figure 11.94). A child of mass m=25kgruns at speed v=2.3m/son a line tangential to the disk and jumps onto the outer edge of the disk.

(a.) If the disk was initially at rest, now how fast is it rotating? (b) What is the change in the kinetic energy of the child plus the disk? (c) where has most of this kinetic energy gone? (d) Calculate the change in linear momentum of the system consisting of the child plus the disk (but not including the axle), from just before to just after impact. What caused this change in the linear momentum? (e) The child on the disk walks inward on the disk and ends up standing at a new location a distance from the axle. Now what is the angular speed? (f) What is the change in the kinetic energy of the child plus the disk, from the beginning to the end of the walk on the disk? (g) What was the source of this increased kinetic energy?

In a lab experiment you observe that a pendulum swings with a "period" (time for one round trip) of 2s. In an iterative calculation of the motion, which of the following would NOT be a reasonable choice for Δt, for either hand or computer iterative calculations? a) 1s b) 0.1sc) 0.05s d)0.01\mathrm{~s}.

In a crash test, a truck with mass 2500kgtraveling at 24m/ssmashes head-on into a concrete wall without rebounding. The front end crumples so much that the truck is 0.72mshorter than before,

(a) What is the average speed of the truck during the collision (that is, during the interval between first contact with the wall and coming to a stop)?

(b) About how long does the collision last? (That is, how long is the interval between first contact with the wall and coming to a stop?)

(c) What is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the wall on the truck during the collision?

(d) It is interesting to compare this force to the weight of the tuck. Calculate the ratio of the force of the wall to the gravitational forceon the truck. This large ratio shows why a collision is so damaging.

(e) What approximations did you make in your analysis?

You drop a piece of paper, and observe that it eventually falls at a constant speed. Which of the following statements about this situation is based on a fundamental physics principle? (a) Because the paper is moving downward, we know that it experiences a nonzero net downward force. (b) Since the momentum of the paper does not change from one instant to the next, P→future=P→now, and therefore the net force on the paper must be zero. (2) You give a push to a toy car, which rolls away smoothly on a wooden floor. Why does the car keep moving after your hand is no longer touching it? (a) The momentum of the car just after it leaves your hand reflects the total impulse given to the car by your hand. (b) Your hand continues to exert a force on the car even after the car and hand no longer touch.
