As part of a carnival game, a 5.00 kg target is freely hanging from a very long and very light wire. Contestants can use one of two 1.5 kg balls to try to hit the target and deflect it high enough to win a prize. Ball A will have an elastic collision and bounce back toward you while ball B will have a nearly perfectly inelastic collision, but rather than sticking to the target, the ball will just drop straight downward to the ground after the collision. You can throw each ball with a velocity of 12 m/s. You are the first to try the game and which ball should you throw? Calculate the expected height the target will reach after each is thrown.

Height ball A will deflect the target is 2.65 m

Height ball A will deflectthe target is 2.2 m

Ball A, will deflect the target to greater height, thus i will throw ball A

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the target, m₁ = 5.00 kg

mass of the ball, m₂ = 1.5 kg

initial velocity of each throw, u = 12 m/s

Throwing ball A; apply the principle of conservation linear momentum for elastic collision;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v₁m₁ + v₂m₂

The initial velocity of the target, u₁ = 0

The ball bounced back at the same speed, v₂ = -12 m/s

the velocity of the target after collision, = v₁

0 + 1.5 x 12 = v₁(5) + (-12 x 1.5)

18 = 5v₁ - 18

18 + 18 = 5v₁

36 = 5v₁

v₁ = 36/5

v₁ = 7.2 m/s

The vertical height reached by the target is given by;

v₁² = u₁² + 2gh

v₁² = 0 + 2gh

v₁² = 2gh

h = v₁² / 2g

h = (7.2)² / (2 x 9.8)

h = 2.65 m

Throwing ball B; apply the principle of conservation energy for the inelastic collision;

the kinetic energy of the ball will be converted to the potential energy of the target.

¹/₂m₁u₂² = mgh

¹/₂(1.5)(12)² = (5 x 9.8)h

108 = 49h

h = 108 / 49

h = 2.2 m

Ball A will deflect  the target to greater height, thus i will throw ball A.

a solenoid is created by wrapping a l = 90 m long wire around a hollow tube of diameter d = 4.5 cm.   the wire diameter is d = 0.9 mm.   the solenoid wire is then connected to a power supply so that a current of i = 9 a flows through the wire.

randomized variablesl = 90 m

d = 4.5 cm

d = 0.9 mm

i = 9 a                                          

write an expression for the number of turns, n, in the solenoid. you do not need to take into account the diameter of the wire in this calculation.

calculate the number of turns, n, in the solenoid.

write an expression for the length of the solenoid (l2) in terms of the diameter of the hollow tube d.

calculate the length of the solenoid (l2)   in meters.

calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid in teslas.
