A 5.00-kg ball is hanging from a long but very light flexible wire when it is struck by a 1.50-kg stone traveling horizontally to the right at 12.0 m/s. the stone rebounds to the left with a speed of 8.50 m/s, and the ball swings to a maximum height h above its original level. the value of h is closest to

Respuesta :

consider the right direction as positive and left direction as negative.

M = mass of the ball = 5 kg

m = mass of stone = 1.50 kg

[tex] V_{bi} [/tex] = initial velocity of the ball before collision = 0 m/s

[tex] V_{si} [/tex] = initial velocity of the stone before collision = 12 m/s

[tex] V_{bf} [/tex] = final velocity of the ball after collision = ?

[tex] V_{sf} [/tex] = final velocity of the stone after collision = - 8.50 m/s

using conservation of momentum

M[tex] V_{bi} [/tex] + m[tex] V_{si} [/tex] = M[tex] V_{bf} [/tex] + m[tex] V_{sf} [/tex]

(5) (0) + (1.5) (12) = 5 [tex] V_{bf} [/tex] + (1.50) (- 8.50)

[tex] V_{bf} [/tex] = 6.15 m/s

h = height gained by the ball

using conservation of energy

Potential energy gained by ball at Top = kinetic energy at the bottom

Mgh = (0.5) M[tex] V_{bf}^{2} [/tex]

(9.8) h = (0.5) (6.15)²

h = 1.93 m

The maximum height that is reached by the ball is about 1.93 m

Further explanation

Newton's second law of motion states that the resultant force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass and acceleration of the object.

[tex]\large {\boxed {F = ma }[/tex]

F = Force ( Newton )

m = Object's Mass ( kg )

a = Acceleration ( m )

Let us now tackle the problem !

[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

Given:

mass of the ball = m₁ = 5.00 kg

mass of the stone = m₂ = 1.50 kg

initial velocity of the stone = u = 12.0 m/s

final velocity of the stone = v = -8.50 m/s

Asked:

maximum height of the ball = h = ?

Solution:

Firstly, we will use Conservation of Momentum Law as follows:

[tex]m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2[/tex]

[tex]5.00(0) + 1.50(12.0) = 5.00v_1 + 1.50(-8.50)[/tex]

[tex]0 + 18 = 5v_1 - 12.75[/tex]

[tex]5v_1 = 18 + 12.75[/tex]

[tex]5v_1 = 30.75[/tex]

[tex]v_1 = 30.75 \div 5[/tex]

[tex]v_1 = 6.15 \texttt{ m/s}[/tex]

The speed of the ball is 6.15 m/s just after it hit by the stone.

[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

Next , we will use Conservation of Energy as follows:

[tex]Ek = Ep[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}m_1(v_1)^2 = m_1 g h[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(v_1)^2 = g h[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{1}{2}(v_1)^2 \div g[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{1}{2}(6.15)^2 \div 9.8[/tex]

[tex]h \approx 1.93 \texttt{ m}[/tex]

The maximum height that is reached by the ball is about 1.93 m
