Question : Physics question
Norma releases a bowling ball from rest; it rolls down a ramp with constant acceleration. After half a second it has traveled 0.75 m. How far has it traveled after two seconds a.1.2 m b.4.7 m c.9.0 m d.12 m

Answer:
This problem is very interesting. First, you have to find the unknown acceleration, then you can find the distance. s = ut + 1/2at2 0.75 = 0.5a * 0.52 a = 6 m /s2 Now reapply s= ut + 1/2at2 with the new t = 2s s = 12m So the answer is d. 12m.

 

Question : 2 physics questions involving inertia and angular momentum
1. A bowling ball rolls without slipping up a ramp that slopes upward at an angle 27.8 degrees to the horizontal. Treat the ball as a uniform, solid sphere, ignoring finger holes. What is the acceleration of the benter of mass of the ball Give your answer in m/s2 to the first decimal place. Note: You do not need to know the mass of the ball to solve this problem 2. A yo-yo is made from two uniform disks each with mass m = 0.56 kg and radius R = 18.6 cm, connected by a light axle of radius b = 6.0 cm. A light, thin string is wound several times around the axle and then held stationary while the yo-yo is released from rest, dropping as the string unwinds. Find the tension in the string just before the yo-yo reaches its lowest point. Note: You do not need to know how long the string is to solve this problem. There is a relation between linear acceleration and Tension, and a relation between angular acceleration and Tension that should allow you to solve this problem in terms of what you already know.
