Let us assume that the initial direction of the ball, i.e., from the pitching machine to the batter as the negative direction, and the final direction of the ball is the positive direction.

Given,

The mass of the baseball, m=0.148 kg

The initial velocity of the baseball, u=-26 m/s

The final velocity of the baseball, v=39 m/s

The momentum of the ball before the batter hits it is given by,

p_1=mu

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} p_1=0.148\times-26 \\ =-3.848\text{ kg}\cdot\text{m/s} \end{gathered}

The momentum of the ball after the batter hits it is given by,

p_2=mv

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} p_2=0.148\times39 \\ =5.772\text{ kg}\cdot\text{m/s} \end{gathered}

The change in the momentum is given by,

\Delta p=p_2-p_1

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} \Delta p=5.772-(-3.848) \\ =9.62\text{ kg}\cdot\text{m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus the change in the momentum of baseball is 9.62 kg·m/s

The magnetic field at the centre of a toroid is 2.2-mT. If the toroid carries a current of 9.6 A and has 6.000 turns, what is th
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Radius, r = 0.00523 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B=2\ mT=2.2\times 10^{-3}\ T

Current in the toroid, I = 9.6 A

Number of turns, N = 6

We need to find the radius of the toroid. The magnetic field at the center of the toroid is given by :                  

B=\dfrac{\mu_oNI}{2\pi r}

r=\dfrac{\mu_oNI}{2\pi B}  

r=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 6\times 9.6}{2.2\pi \times 2\times 10^{-3}}  

r = 0.00523 m

or

r=5.23\times 10^{-3}\ m

So, the radius of the toroid is 0.00523 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

The spacing between the plates of a 1.0 μF capacitor is 0.050 mm. a) What is the surface area of the plates? b) How much charge
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

(a) surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(b) Charge on the capacitor is equal to 1.5\times 10^{-6}C

Explanation:

We have given spacing between the plates d = 0.05 mm = 5\times 10^{-5}m

Value of capacitance C=1\mu F=10^{-6}F

(A) Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is equal to C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

So 10^{-6}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times A}{10^{-5}}

A=1.129m^2

So surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(B) It is given that capacitor is charged by 1.5 volt

So voltage V = 1.5 volt

Charge on the capacitor is equal to Q=CV

So Q=1.5\times 10^{-6}C
