Answer:

10 N, backward

Explanation:

Force exerted on the ball by the bat can be calculated according to newtons second law,

Force = mass × acceleration

Given mass of the ball = 5kg

Acceleration of the ball = 2m/s²

Force exerted on the ball= 5×2

Force exerted on the ball by the bat = 10N

If the force of 10N is applied on the ball by the bat in the forward direction, the reaction force of the ball on the bat will also be 10N but in the opposite direction (backward) to the direction of the bat according to newton's third law which states that actions and reaction are equal and opposite.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

– 2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

We have,

• Initial velocity, u = 180 km/h = 50 m/s

• Final velocity, v = 0 m/s (it stops)

• Time taken, t = 20 seconds

We have to find acceleration, a.

\longrightarrow a = (v ― u)/t

\longrightarrow a = (0 – 50)/20 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = –50/20 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = – 5/2 m/s²

\longrightarrow a = – 2.5 m/s² (Velocity is decreasing) [Answer]

When the temperature of the air is 25 degress C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately
dusya [7]
Assuming an ideal gas, the speed of sound depends on temperature 
only.   Air is almost an ideal gas. 

Assuming the temperature of 25°C in a "standard atmosphere", the 
density of air is 1.1644 kg/m3, and the speed of sound is 346.13 m/s. 

The velocity can't be specified, since the question gives no information 
regarding the direction of the sound.

Jackson throws a football 30 meters at a speed of 15 m/s. How long was the football in the air before Laurence caught it for tou
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

2s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance  = 30m

Speed  = 15m/s

Unknown:

Time before Laurence caught it = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

    Speed  = \frac{disance }{time}  

 Time taken  = \frac{distance }{speed }   = \frac{30}{15}  = 2s

The time it takes is 2s
