Given:

The mass of the ball is

m=1.23\text{ kg}

The speed of the ball is

\begin{gathered} v=65.8\text{ mi/h} \\  \end{gathered}

Required: calculate the kinetic energy of the baseball

Explanation: to calculate the kinetic energy of a body we will use the formula as

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

first, we convert velocity from mi/h into m/s.

we know that

1\text{ mi=1609.34 m}

and

1\text{ h=3600 sec}

then the velocity is

\begin{gathered} v=\frac{65.8\times1602.34\text{ m}}{3600\text{ s}} \\ v=29.29\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

now plugging all the values in the above formula, we get

\begin{gathered} K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 \\ K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times1.23\text{ kg}\times(29.29\text{ m/s})^2 \\ K.E=527.61\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Thus, the kinetic energy of the baseball is

527.61\text{ J}

An uncharged capacitor is connected to a 21-V battery until it is fully charged, after which it is disconnected from the battery
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The voltage bewtween the plates will be 9.5V

Explanation:

Facts:

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor having plate area A and plate separation d is C=ϵ0A/d.  

Where ϵ0 is the permittivity of free space.  

A capacitor filled with dielectric slab of dielectric constant K, will have a new capacitance C1=ϵ0kA/d

        C1=K(ϵ0A/d)

        C1=KC   ----------- 1

Where C is the capacitance with no dielectric and C1 is the capacitance with dielectric.

The new capacitance is k times the capacitance of the capacitor without dielectric slab.  

This implies that the charge storing capacity of a capacitor increases k times that of the capacitor without dielectric slab.

Given points

• The terminal voltage of the battery to which the capacitor is connected to charge V=25V

• A dielectric slab of paraffin of dielectric constant K=2  is inserted in the space between the capacitor plates after the fully charged capacitor is disconnected

The charge stored in the original capacitor Q=CV

The charge stored in the original capacitor after inserting dielectric Q1=C1V1

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy stored is constant:

i.e Charge stored in the original capacitor is same as charge stored after the dielectric is inserted.

Q   =  Q1

CV = C1V1

  CV = C1V1  -------2

We derived C1=KC from equation 1. Inserting this into equation 2

   CV = KCV1

 V1 = (CV)/KC

         V/K

       = 21/2.2

      = 9.5

A new band sensation is playing a concert and recording it for a live album to be released this summer. The band asks the sound
Amanda [17]

The sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer which will increase the loudness of the sound.

<h3>Amplitude of sound wave</h3>

The amplitude of a sound wave is the maximum vertical displacement of the sound wave.

The sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer.

The increase in the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the lower tune singer will result in increased loudness of the sound.

Thus, the sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer which will increase the loudness of the sound.

Exactly one pound of bread dough is placed in a baking tin. the dough is cooked in an oven at 350 °f releasing a wonderful aroma
Sladkaya [172]
The mass of the baked loaf will be less than the original dough. In making dough for bread, we have ingredients that are liquid such as water, melted butter, food flavoring, etc. All of this liquid ingredients mixed on the dough will definitely turn into vapor. This vapor is responsible for releasing of the aroma of the freshly baked bread.

My guess is; The warmer ocean adds water vapor to the air mass.
