Question
Students are given two spherical balls made of different materials, but of identical mass and diameter to experiment with. Each ball is dropped from an initial height, h0. The “sad ball” comes to rest without visibly bouncing when it strikes the tabletop. The “happy ball” bounces up to a final height h, where h< h0
A fellow student wants to use one of the balls in a carnival game where cups are knocked over by a thrown ball. Which ball should they use, happy or sad? Why?

To do this, it is necessary to measure the total weight of the car as well as the forces acting under the front wheels. Fig. 1 illustrates the situation in which the forces acting under the front wheels can be measured experimentally. Considering the data in the figure, determine: a) the position of the center of mass; (b) the force acting on each of the rear wheels. Consider known l, m, and Fz1. 2F C al 2F21 mgarrow_forward
- 1. You are setting up for a pool party that has a 2.5 m high slide that launches swimmers into the pool. To make it more exciting, you decide to string a steamer across the pool so that the swimmers just clear it at their maximum height after leaving the slide. The end of the slide is 0.75 m above the ground and is directed 20° above the horizontal. By watching people use the slide, you know the horizontal distance to place the streamer, so you only need to determine the maximum height. You are also curious how fast the swimmers are going when they enter the pool. In your estimates, you can assume that the swimmer starts at rest at the top of the slide and ignore friction on the slide and air resistance. 2.5 m 0.75 m streamer If the angle of the slide were different (say 15°) would either the maximum height or the speed when entering the water be different?
