Ýou have 12 balls. All of them have the same mass. Except one. You don't know if it weighs more or less than the other 11 balls. Your mission is to find the odd one out, and say if it weighs more or less than the 11 others. You have a balancescale. You may use it for three weighings. The...

I have a golf ball that I want to cut open. How do I go about doing this? Just use a knife? I don't want to cut my finger open! What do I do!?

Okay, I got another problem for you guys that I have been trying to figure out. Here first is the diagram: I have been experimenting with different weights of balls and different weights of cars, also different ramp lengths. 5 balls are supposed to be used. Nothing seems to work at...

(Resolved)Calculating moment of inertia of a system of balls I have a bit hard time calculating moment of inertia of a a system of balls. The system is defined as follows: 3 balls that are the same are connected with thin rods soo that the center of each ball is in the corners of a equilateral...

Is there a technology available that would let me paint some small dots of a reflective coating on a golf ball, and then use a radar-type device to detect it? I know that a company called Radar Golf has developed a gps system that uses a chip inside a golf ball and a scanner to locate it, but...

The problem first gives conditions: given that an urn contains n orange balls and n yellow balls, and two are selected at random. The question was to determine the probability of getting two balls of different colors. I did (1)*(n)/(2n-1) Where 1 represented the...

Help Needed Asap! Please! Hi! I need to solve the following problem before tomorrow.. otherwise I'll be in big trouble. :rolleyes: I've already discussed it with classmates, but they also don't know how to handle it. Please help me! Ok this is the question: A ball A is thrown off a...

The question is: - Two billiard balls of equal mass move at right angles and meet at the origin of an xy coordinate system. Ball A is moving upwards along the y-axis at 2.0 m/s, and ball B is moving to the right along the x-axis with speed 3.7m/s. After the collision, assume elastic, ball B is...

I've recently found my old plasma ball, so decided to waste a couple of hours becoming entranced with it. I noticed that if I touched it with anything other than my hand, the streams didn't seem to be attracted to it. I did a bit of reading on it and found that it has to be something which will...

No, I'm not crazy, nor will use them in an unethical manner. I simply want a novel subject to photograph for Advanced Photography (The judges probably haven't ever seen such a thing.) and to use on the 4th etc. I've tried setting bouncing balls on fire, doesn't work. How can I make them, or one...

Suppose r red balls and g green balls are mapped randomly among b bins. Calculate the expected number of bins where red balls are in majority. My attempt, Let x_ijk = 1 (when kth bin contains i red balls and j green balls) = 0 otherwise Then, F = \sum_{k=1}^{b} \sum_{i=1}^{r}...

Identical balls are rolled down 2 inclined planes of the same height but different inclines. Do they reach the bottom at the same time. Neglect friction and air resistance. Do the balls have the same speed upon reaching the bottom of the incline? :rolleyes:

A ball of mass 0.200 kg has a velocity of 1.50i m/s; a ball of mass 0.300 kg has a velocity of -0.400i m/s (where "i" is supposed to be that unit vector along x-axis). They meet in a head-on elastic collision. (a) Find their velocities after the collision. I know I can use the conservation of...

try this, there are eight bags. each bag contains 10 balls. one of those bags contains balls weighing 2 kg(all balls weigh the same). All the other balls weigh 1 kg. you have a weighing machine (not a balance). in one weighing u have to find out which bag contains the faulty balls.

have been trying to make me own workig Newton cradle. I know some physics. the problem is that my balls don´ta completely stop moving after the coalition, they rather continua their movement but with a reduced violocity. This typ of movement increases and grows with the number of coalitions. At...

A novelty toy has two spheres of equal mass suspended by strings of equal length and negligible mass, and arranged so that the spheres can collide head-on at the bottom of each string’s swing. One sphere is given an initial velocity u towards the other, which is at rest hanging vertically. A...

Hi, I am having trouble recalling my concepts in momentum. I just remember its conserved :rolleyes: Plus, I am horrible with directions, so need help understanding this problem, as well as the underlying concepts. Two pool balls are rolling along a pool table. The orange pool ball has...

A system consists of 10 0.50-kg balls, each moving radially outward from a common center in a symmetrical pattern, all at a speed of 12 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the system? My instinct is to say 0, since it it symmetrical and every ball moving one direction will be canceled by a...

this is no doubt older than dirt, but it just popped into my head when trying to think of how to convince my beginning linear algebra class that every linear isometry of R^3 has an eigenvector: i.e. it follows from the theorem that one cannot comb the hair on a billiard ball. do you see how...

A 0.308 kg croquet ball makes an elastic head-on collision with a second ball initially at rest. The second ball moves off with half the original speed of the first ball. What is the mass of the second ball? so i used the formula m1v1initial + m2v2initial = m1v1final + m2v2final v2initial=0...

In the figure, two tiny conducting balls of identical mass m and identical charge q hang from nonconducting threads of length L. Assume that q is so small that tanq can be replaced by its approximate equal, sinq. First find an expression for x in terms of L, q, m, k and g. Then, given L...

The balls are released from rest at a height of 5.0m at time t=0s. How long t_g does it take for the balls to reach the ground? Use 10 m/s^2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. i'll use the position formula for this problem: y = y_0 + V_{y_0}*t - 1/2*g*t^2 well i know...

Two identical small insulating balls are suspended by separate 0.25-m threads that are attached to a common point on the ceiling. Each ball has a mass of 8.0×10–4 kg. Initially the balls are uncharged and hang straight down. They are then given identical positive charges and, as a result, spread...

There are two balls which are apart from each other but there is a line going from the balls diagonally up and these two join. The topic is electricity so I have said the two balls have like charges as they are repelling. See [PLAIN]www.kgmm.co.uk/balls.GIF[/URL] for diagram. The question...

Hello one and all. I could use a little guidance here on a probability problem. Box #1 contains a black balls and b white balls while box #2 contains c black balls and d white balls. A ball is chosen randomly from box #1 and placed in box #2. A ball is then randomly chosen from box #2 and...

If the first ball in problem 7) has a mass of 10 kg and the second ball is traveling at it with a speed of 14 m/s, what is the velocity, to one decimal place, of the first ball after collision? Problem (7) says A 9.8 kg steel ball, traveling left to right at 12 m/s, undergoes an elastic...

i kinda need help. okay I am posting my question: Two pith balls have a mass of 1.0g and have equal charges. One pith ball is suspended by an insulating thread. The other is attached to a static insulator and is brought close to the suspended ball so that they are 5 cm apart when repulsion...

Hi, I think I understand so so why golf balls aren't made smooth (is there a name for those circular dips). I assume it allows a better (laminar?) airflow, with less turbulence and higher pressure on the backside. I would appreciate if someone could confirm this or give a clear and concise...
