Kinetic energy of the horse and rider = 1/2 (mass) (speed)²

At 4.0 m/s :  KE = 1/2 (55kg) (4 m/s)²  =  440 joules

At 6.0 m/s :  KE = 1/2 (55kg) (6 m/s)²  =  990 joules

She increased the kinetic energy of herself and her vehicle by 550 joules,
so she must have put at least that much work into it.

A bat strikes a 0.145-kg baseball. Just before impact, the ball is traveling horizontally to the right at 60.0 m/s , and it leav
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

F = -307.4 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg

Initial speed of the baseball, u = 60 m/s

Final speed of the baseball, v=65\ cos(30)=56.29\ m/s

Time of contact, t=1.75\ ms=1.75\times 10^{-3}\ s

(a) It is assumed to find the horizontal component of average force. It is given by :

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}

F=0.145\dfrac{56.29-60}{1.75\times 10^{-3}}

F = -307.4 N

So, the horizontal component of average force is 307.4 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
