The  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;

During upward motion

h = vi - ¹/₂gt²

h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)

h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)

During downward motion

h = vi + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²

h = 11.025 ----------- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball

11.025 = vi - 44.1

vi = 11.025 + 44.1

vi = 55.125 m/s

Thus, the  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

If the average velocity of a duck is zero in a given time interval, what can you say about the displacement of the duck for that
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Also 0

Explanation:

Since average speed of an object is that object's displacement over a unit of time, when an average speed is 0, its displacement over a unit of time must also be 0. When an average speed is not 0, then its displacement over a unit of time is also not 0 for that interval.

A simple pendulum makes 120 complete oscillations in 3.00 min at a location where g 5 9.80 m/s2. Find (a) the period of the pend
choli [55]

Answer:

(a) 1.5 second

(b) 0.56 m

Explanation:

Pendulum makes 120 oscillations in 3 min that means in 180 seconds

time taken by the pendulum to complete one oscillation is called time period.

(a) So, the time period is 180 / 120 = 1.5 second

T = 1.5 second

Thus, the time period of the pendulum is 1.5 second.

(b) g = 9.8 m/s^2

The formula for the time period is given by

T =2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Where, L be the length of pendulum

1.5 =2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}

0.057= {\frac{L}{9.8}}

L = 0.56 m

Thus, the length of the pendulum is 0.56 m .

A baseball player hits a ball with a bat. At one moment the force exerted by the bat on the ball is 18,000 N. At that same momen
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Less than 18000N

Explanation:

Given

Force\ Exerted = 18000N

This question will be answered using Newton's third law.

Understanding this law, it implies that reaction force is equal and opposite to the force exerted.

This implies that;

If the force exerted on the ball is 18000N

the force exerted is -18000N

So, the option that answers the question is less than 18000N because -18000N < 18000N
