(a)
The time taken by each ball to reach the floor.
(a)
Answer to Problem 3SP
The time taken by each ball to reach the floor is
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The height of the table top is equal to
Consider the motion of the ball
Therefore, Write the equation of vertical distance travelled by the both the balls.
Here,
In the case of ball the only vertical acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity and distance travelled by the ball is equal to the height of the table.
Substitute
Therefore, the time taken by both the balls are equal to
Conclusion:
Thus, time taken by both the balls to reach the ground is
(b)
The horizontal distance travelled by the balls before hitting the floor.
(b)
Answer to Problem 3SP
Before hitting the ground ball A travelled a horizontal distance of
Explanation of Solution
Given info: the horizontal velocity of ball A is
Consider the motion of the ball
Therefore, write the equation of horizontal distance of the ball A.
Here,
Substitute
Consider the motion of the ball B. In horizontal direction there is no acceleration.
Therefore, write the equation of horizontal distance of the ball B.
Here,
Substitute
Conclusion:
Thus, before hitting the ground ball A travelled a horizontal distance of
(c)
Whether the two balls will reach the floor at same time, if the two balls started at the same time at a point
(c)
Answer to Problem 3SP
Since the ball B has larger velocity than ball A, ball B will reach the edge of the table first and therefore A will reach the floor first.
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The distance behind the edge at which the balls are started rolling is
In part a, it is showed that both the ball will reach the ground at the same time if they are allowed to roll off the balls at the table top.
But in this case they are started rolling at same time at a point
Therefore, write the equation of horizontal distance of the ball A.
Rearrange the above equation to get
Substitute
Write the equation of horizontal distance of the ball B.
Rearrange the above equation to get
Substitute
Therefore ball B has taken less time than ball A to cover
Conclusion:
Since the ball B has larger velocity than ball A, ball B will reach the edge of the table first and therefore A will reach the floor first.

- 13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets?
