What is the momentum of a baseball with a mass of 0.12 kg being thrown
Savatey [412]

Answer:

5.4kgm/s towards the hitter.

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass  = 0.12kg

Velocity  = 45m/s

Unknown:

Momentum of the baseball  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we  must understand that the momentum of a body is the quantity of motion it possesses.

 Momentum  = mass x velocity

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

 Momentum  = 0.12 x 45  = 5.4kgm/s towards the hitter.

A car travelling at 40 m/s comes to a halt in 8 seconds. What is the car’s acceleration and how far does it travel while it is s
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: Acceleration = 5m/s^2; Distance traveled = 320 m

Explanation:

Velocity of car = 40m/s

Time taken = 8 seconds

Acceleration = ?

Distance traveled = ?

A) Since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time

i.e acceleration = velocity / time

acceleration = 40m/s / 8 seconds

Acceleration = 5m/s^2

B) To get how far the car traveled before stopping, obtain the distance from the formula:

velocity = distance traveled / time

40m/s = distance / 8 seconds

Distance = 40m/s x 8 seconds

Distance = 320 m

Thus, the car’s acceleration is 5m/s^2 while it traveled 320 metres before stopping.

What is the kinetic energy of a 1 kg pie if it is thrown at 10 m/s?
nignag [31]

Given

mass (m) = 1 kg

velocity (v) = 10 m/s

kinetic energy ( ke) = ?

,we know

K.E =1/2 m v²

= 1/2 * 1 * 10²

= 100/2

=50 joule

hope it helps :)

How do you use vectors daily without realizing it was a vector?<br><br> I need help ASAP !!!
jonny [76]

Explanation:

Vectors are quantities that has both magnitude and direction. A vector is described in terms of quantity and the direction it is headed.

There are different forms of vectors that are used in our daily life.

  • When we describe the motion of a car and the direction it is heading, we are simply talking about its velocity which is a vector.
  • When we say James treks 2km from his school to the house everyday, we are simply describing his displacement.
  • When we apply a force to push the table from one corner of the room to another point, is simply a vector
  • When we change position, it is a vector application.
