1. A big league hitter attacks a fastball! The ball has a mass of 0.16 kg. It is pitched at 38 m/s. After the player hits the ba

ll, it is now traveling 44 m/s in the opposite direction. The impact lasted 0.002 seconds. How big of a force did the ballplayer put on that ball?

Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)

Original momentum before the hit =

                   (0.16 kg) x (38 m/s) this way <==

               =             6.08 kg-m/s  this way <==

Momentum after the hit =

                   (0.16) x (44 m/s) that way  ==>

               =           7.04 kg-m/s  that way ==>

Change in momentum = (6.08 + 7.04) =  13.12 kg-m/s  that way ==> .
-----------------------------------------------

Change in momentum = impulse.

                                   Impulse = (force) x (time the force lasted)

                          13.12 kg-m/s  = (force) x (0.002 sec)

  (13.12 kg-m/s) / (0.002 sec)  =  Force

             6,560 kg-m/s² = 6,560 Newtons  =  Force   

                            ( about 1,475 pounds  ! ! ! )

A thin cylindrical shell is released from rest and rolls without slipping down an inclined ramp that makes an angle of 30° with
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer: 1.59 sec

Explanation:

The kinetic energy contained in the rotation of the cylinder is 1/2 m v^2

The kinetic energy of translation is also 1/2 m v^2

so the total energy is m v^2

The force applied is mg sin (theta)

= m x 9.8 x 1/2

= 4.9 m

Now equate

F x d = m v^2

4.9 m x 3.1 = m v^2

v^2 = 4.9 x 3.1

v = sqrt(4.9 x 3.1) = 3.9 m/s

Acceleration.

V^2 = 2 a s

4.9 x 3.1 = 2 x a x 3.1

4.9 = 2 a

a = 2.45 m/s^2

Time

T = v/a

= 3.9/2.45

= 1.59 sec

Holden is trying to turn man the velocity of his car, he went 20 meters east, turned around and left 40 meters less, he turned t
Grace [21]

Answer:

3 m/s east

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time taken

The displacement of the car does not depend on the path of the car, but just on it the difference between its final position and its starting position, so it is equal to 15 metres east. The time taken is 5 seconds, therefore the velocity is equal to

v=\frac{15 m}{5 s}=3 m/s

and the direction is east.

Hypothetically, suppose our resistance in part I was 200 ohms. Quantitatively calculate the impact of a 1 Ohm ammeter resistance
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Yes, the errors are likely to be relevant

Explanation:

A systematic error occurs as a result of the instrument used in carrying out and experiment. These errors are a result of small fluctuations in the measurement properties of the instrument. This happens when the instrument departs from non-ideal situations, for example as a result of physical expansion or change in temperature. For instance, let the resistance be measured to be up to 10 Ω ± 1 Ω

The error of the resistance, ε = 0.01Ω
