A major-league pitcher can throw a baseball in excess of 41.0 m/s. If a ball is thrown horizontally at this speed, how much will

it drop by the time it reaches a catcher who is 17.0 m away from the point of release?

Answer:

Ball will drop by 0.82 meter.

Explanation:

Horizontal speed = 41 m/s

Horizontal displacement = 17 m

Horizontal acceleration = 0 m/s²

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

    17 = 41 t + 0.5 x 0 x t²

     t = 0.41 s

Now we need to find how much vertical distance ball travels in 0.41 s.

Initial vertical speed = 0 m/s

Time = 0.41s

Vertical acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

    s = 0 x 0.41 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 0.41²

    s = 0.82 m

So ball will drop by 0.82 meter.

Which statement explains how it is possible to carry books to school without changing the kinetic or potential energy of the boo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>

The magnitude is pointing towards the origin and is at - 20 degrees. The combination makes 160 with the x axis: C answer

Eight

They keep doing this. They use distance where they should use displacement but they use distance to try and fool you. It's a mighty poor practice.

The distance between the start and end points is the displacement. That "distance" is 180*sqrt(25) = 900 . The actual distance should be 180*4 + 180*3 = 720 + 540 = 1260. That's what a car's odometer or a bicycle odometer would read.  the difference is 360.

I really do object to the wording, but what can I do?

Nine

Nine is the same thing as 8.

Displacement = sqrt(400^2 + 80^2)= sqrt(166400) = 408

The actual distance is 400 + 80 = 480

The difference is the answer = 480 - 408 = 72 <<<< Answer

Ten

This is just the displacement magnitude.

dis = sqrt(30^2 + 80^2)

dis = sqrt(900 + 6400)

dis = sqrt(7300)

dis = 85.44 <<<< Answer D

Twelve

Vi =  2.15*Sin(30) = 1.075 m/s

vf = 0

a = - 9.81

t = ?

<u>Formula</u>

a = (vf - vi)/t

<u>Solve</u>

-9.81 =  (0 - 1.075)/t

- 9.81 * t = -1.075

t = 0.11 seconds

Thirteen

I'm leaving this last one to you. You need the initial height xo to answer it properly. Judging by the other questions, this one is right.

Edit

That is a surprise! Really quickly

d = 3.2 m

a = - 9.82

vf = 0

vi = ?

vf^2 = vi^2 - 2*a*d

0 = vi^2 - 2*9.81*3.2

vi = sqrt(19.62*3.2)

vi = 8.0  m/s   But that is the vertical component of the speed

v = vi/sin(25)

v = 8.0/sin(25) = 11

IRINA_888 [86]

Complete question :

NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N
