Chapter 8.2, Problem 8.3QQ
Three identical balls are thrown from the top of a building, all with the same initial speed. As shown in Figure 8.3, the first is thrown horizontally, the second at some angle above the horizontal, and the third at some angle below the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance, rank the speeds of the balls at the instant each hits the ground.

A 0.25 kg ball is suspended from a light 1.2 m string as shown. The string makes an angle of 35° with the vertical. Let U = 0 when the ball is at its lowest point (θ = 0).
Part A: Draw diagram and label coordinates.
Part B: What is the gravitational potential energy, in joules, of the ball before it is released?
Part C: What will be the speed of the ball, in meters per second, when it reaches the bottom?
Part D: Does replacing the ball by a steel sphere of mass 0.75kg at the end increase the maximum speed?
I like to know how to solve questions 1 and two because I did the math problem but I feel like I keep having the wrong numbers so I need help with how to solve questions 1 and two or at least show me the mathematic formulas to solve it.
A spring has a natural length of 30 cm. If a 29-N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 36 cm, how much work W is required to stretch it from 30 cm to 33 cm? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)W = J
Find the work W done if a constant force of 95 lb is used to pull a cart a distance of 200 ft.W = ft-lb
A cart travels along a frictionless roller coaster track. At point A, the cart is10 m above the ground and traveling at 2 m/s.Note: Assume g is exactly 9.8m/s^2
What is the velocity of the cart at point C when the cart reaches aheight of 3 m?Ans:11.9m/s
Please show solution and explain how the answer is obtained. Thanks!

- Consider the free-fall motion of a bouncing ball. Assume that there is very little air resistance. Let the floor be the zero point. For this activity we will predict how the energy will change as the ball bounces from just leaving the floor, through one complete bounce until It just hits the floor a second time. Height and velocity of a single bounce Figre2 Heghr and Question 1: Make a sketch of both position vs. time and velocity vs time for the ball from just after it hits the floor for the first time, through one complete bounce until it hits the floor a second time. Let the floor be the zero point. This will look similar to the pop-out image above in Figure 2. On your sketch, label the positions (a-e): a. the ball has just left the floor and is on its way up b. the ball is about halfway up C. the ball is at the highest point of the bounce d. the ball is about halfway back down e. the ball is almost back down to the floorarrow_forward1.
