Answer:

h = 3.26 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the soccerball, m = 250 g

Speed of the ball, v = 8 m/s

We need to find the height upto which the soccerball is raised. Let the height be h. Using the conservation of energy i.e.

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\\h=\dfrac{8^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h=3.26\ m$

So, it will raised up to a height of 3.26 m.

When you float an ice cube in water, you notice that 90% of it is submerged beneath the surface. Now suppose you put the same ic

Gwar [14]

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

90% of the body is submerged in water.

Now it is immersed in an unknown liquid whose density is less than the density of water.

Buoyant force acting on the body depends on the volume immersed, density of liquid and gravity.

As the density of liquid is less than the density of water, so the buoyant force acting on the body by the unknown liquid is less than water. So it is submerged less than 90% in this liquid.

A pirate ship shoots a cannon towards an oncoming ship. The cannon ball has a mass of 25 kg and the ship has a mass of 2500 kg.

Answer:

25 m/s in the opposite direction with the ship recoil velocity.

Explanation:

Assume the ship recoil velocity and velocity of the cannon ball aligns. By the law of momentum conservation, the momentum is conserved before and after the shooting. Before the shooting, the total momentum is 0 due to system is at rest. Therefore, the total momentum after the shooting must also be 0:

$m_sv_s + m_bv_b = 0$

where $m_s = 2500 kg, m_b = 25 kg$ are masses of the ship and ball respectively. $v_s = 0.25 m/s, v_b$ are the velocities of the ship and ball respectively, after the shooting.
