A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.89 m above the ground at an angle of 62 ∘ with an initial speed of 29 m/s headin

g toward centerfield. Ignore air resistance. How far from home plate would the ball land if not caught? The ball is caught by the centerfielder who, starting at a distance of 107 m from home plate, runs straight toward home plate at a constant speed and makes the catch at ground level. Find his speed.

consider the motion in Y-direction

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Sin62 = 25.6 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel

Y = vertical displacement = - 0.89 m

using the equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

- 0.89 = (25.6) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 5.3 sec

consider the motion along the horizontal direction :

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Cos62 = 13.6 m/s

a = acceleration = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 5.3 sec

X = horizontal displacement =?

using the equation

X = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

X = (13.6) (5.3) + (0.5) (0) t²

X = 72.1 m

d = distance traveled by the center fielder to catch the ball = 107 - x = 107 - 72.1 = 34.9 m

t = time taken = 5.3 sec

v = speed of center fielder

using the equation

v = d/t

v = 34.9/5.3

v = 6.6 m/s

A. How does increasing the voltage of a power supply in an electromagnet affect the strength of the magnetic field?

seropon [69]

PART A)

If we increase the voltage supply in an electromagnet then it will increase the current that is flowing in it

So here due to increase in current there will be increase in the magnetic field due to that electromagnet

PART B)

Here in electric generator the current is produced by rotating a coil between two strong magnets.

So here mechanical energy of rotation of coil is converted into electromagnetic energy.

PART C)

Step up transformer convert the lower voltage input into higher voltage output

here number of turns of coil in output side or secondary number of coils is more than the number of coils in primary side or input side

PART D)

Force on a moving charge is given by

$F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)$

here we know that

q = 0.000600 C

$v = 2.8 \times 10^5 m/s$

B = 4.21 T

now from above equation we have

$F = 0.0006(2.8\times 10^5)(4.21)$

$F = 707.3 N$

direction of force is given by right hand thumb rule

using that rule we got force downwards

One electron collides elastically with a second electron initially at rest. After the collision, the radii of their trajectories

morpeh [17]

Answer:

63.750KeV

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial velocity of second electron, $u_2=0$

Radius, $r_1=0$

$r_2=2.3 cm=\frac{2.3}{100}=0.023 m$

1 m=100 cm

Magnetic field,B=0.0370 T

We have to determine the energy of the incident electron.

Mass of electron, $m=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg$

Charge on an electron, $q=-1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Velocity, $v=\frac{Bqr}{m}$

Using the formula

Speed of electron, $v_1=\frac{Bqr_1}{m}=\frac{0.0370\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}=0$

Speed of second electron, $v_2=\frac{0.0370\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.023}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}$

$v_2=1.5\times 10^8 m/s$

Kinetic energy of incident electron= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2_1+\frac{1}{2}mv^2_2$

Kinetic energy of incident electron= $0+\frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31})(1.5\times 10^8)^2=1.02\times 10^{-14} J$

Kinetic energy of incident electron= $\frac{1.02\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=63750eV=\frac{63750}{1000}=63.750KeV$

1KeV=1000eV

An electron of mass 9.11 1031 kg has an initial speed of 3.00 105 m/s. It travels in a straight line, and its speed increases to

elena55 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an electron, $m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

Initial speed of the electron, $u=3\times 10^5\ m/s$

Final speed of the electron, $v=7\times 10^5\ m/s$

Distance, d = 5 cm = 0.05 m

(a) The acceleration of the electron is calculated using the third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}$

$a=\dfrac{(7\times 10^5)^2-(3\times 10^5)^2}{2\times 0.05}$

$a=4\times 10^{12}\ m/s^2$

Force exerted on the electron is given by :

$F=m\times a$

$F=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 4\times 10^{12}$

$F=3.64\times 10^{-18}\ N$

(b) Let W is the weight of the electron. It can be calculated as :

$W=mg$

$W=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8$

$W=8.92\times 10^{-30}\ N$

Comparison,

$\dfrac{F}{W}=\dfrac{3.64\times 10^{-18}}{8.92\times 10^{-30}}$

$\dfrac{F}{W}=4.08\times 10^{11}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A juggler is practicing with one ball. It takes 2.4 seconds for the ball to leave her hand and return to her hand. How fast did

nikklg [1K]

The kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Given parameters

Time t = 2.4 s

To find

Initial velocity

Kinematics is the part of physics that establishes the relationships between the position, velocity, and acceleration of bodies.

In this case we have a vertical launch

y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

Where y and y₀ are the final and initial positions, respectively, v₀ the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²) and t the time

With the ball in hand, its position is zero

0 = 0 + v₀ t - ½ g t²

v₀ t - ½ g t² = 0

v₀ = ½ g t

Let's calculate

v₀ = ½ 9.8 2.4

v₀ = 11.76 m / s

In conclusion using kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s
