- A 1.5 kg ball at the end of a 1.1 m string swings in a vertical plane. At its lowest point the ball is moving with a speed of 15 m/s. (a) What is its speed (in m/s) at the top of its path? |m/s (b) What is the tension (in N) in the string when the ball is at the bottom and at the top of its path? bottom of its path top of its patharrow_forwardI've been moonwalking for hours, and I'm getting tired. Explain why, as I come to a stop, my velocity is increasing while my speed is decreasing.arrow_forwardA ball of mass 1.6 kg and a diameter of 41.1 cm is attached to a string of length 1.1 m. It moves in a circular path at constant speed, 4.5 m above the ground. The string makes a constant angle of 42° with respect to vertical. m (a) What is the speed of the ball? (b) What is the tension in the string?arrow_forward
- A small boat is being pushed up a ramp into the back of a flatbed truck. The boat is sitting at the top of the ramp, which is located 1.4 m above the ground. The boaters think the boat is safe there, and begin to walkaway. However, they have neglected the thin layer of ice that has formed on the ramp, which is angled at 30◦ up from the ground. Neglecting the friction between the boat and the ramp, how long do the boaters havebefore the boat reaches the bottom of the ramp?arrow_forwardA force parallel to the x-axis acts on a particle moving along the x-axis. This force produces a potential energy U(x) given by U(x) = ax where a = 1.39 J/m².arrow_forwardProblem 4: A sled starts from rest at the top of a snow-covered incline that makes an angle of p = 19.3 degrees with horizontal. After sliding a distance d= 68 m down the slope, the speed of the sled is s = 14.1 m/s.arrow_forward
- The speed skier has a frontal surface area of 0.75 m^2 and a Cd of 0.54 (assume that p=0.95 kg/m^3) If the slope is 58 degrees and the skier's weight (including the equipment) is 92 kg, what the maximum velocity the skier can attain?arrow_forwardA ball with mass 0.3 kg is thrown upward with initial velocity 10 m/s from the roof of a building 50 m high. Assume there is a force due to directed opposite to the velocity, air resistance of magnitude 1325 where the velocity v is measured in m/s. NOTE: Use g-9.8 m/s as the acceleration due to gravity. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. a) Find the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches. Height: m b) Find the time that the ball hits the ground. Time: seconds c) Use a graphing utility to plot the graphs of velocity and position versus time.arrow_forwardA skier leaves a ski jump at 14.4 m/s at some angle . At what speed is he travelling at his maximum height of 4.40 m above the level of the end of the ski jump? neglect air friction I need to find speed m/s?arrow_forward
