A pitcher throws a 0.14-kg baseball toward the batter so that it crosses home plate horizontally and has a speed of 42 m/s just

before it makes contact with the bat. The batter then hits the ball straight back at the pitcher with a speed of 48 m/s. Assume the ball travels along the same line leaving the bat as it followed before contacting the bat. a. What is the magnitude of the impulse delivered by the bat to the baseball? b. If the ball is in contact with the bat for 0.0050 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the bat on the ball?

Answer

given,

mass of base ball = 0.14 kg

speed before it made the contact with the ball (V i) = 42 m/s

speed after batter hit the ball(V f) = - 48 m/s

a)                                            

impulse = change in momentum

             = m\times (V_f-V_i)      

             =0.14\times (-48-42)

             = -12.6 Kg m/s

Magnitude of impulse = 12.6 Kg m/s

b)                                                        

Force = \dfrac{impulse}{time}

          =  \dfrac{12.6}{0.005}

Force = 2520 N

Two identical resistors connected in series have an equivalent resistance of 4 ohms. The same two resistors, when connected in p
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

since there are two identical resistors, one resistor will be

R = \frac{4}{2} =2ohm [ proven as in series R_{e} = 2 + 2 = 4ohm ]

to calculate the equivalent resistance when in parallel:

\frac{1}{R_{e} }  = \frac{1}{R_{1} } + \frac{1}{R_{2}}

so,

\frac{1}{R_{e} } = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}

R_{e} = 1ohm

Because CMB radiation was _____ throughout the universe, scientists can only relate the source to the big bang.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: 1 The correct answer is that CMB radiation was spread uniformly throughout the whole universe.This was related to big band theory because this theory predicts that the universe was a very hot place and as it cooled down it should have been filled with laterally the remnant heat over from the Big Bang called as cosmic microwave background.

Answer: 2 CMB radiation was discovered accidentally when Penzias and Wilson were performing some experiment and they noticed a ' hum' noise that was constantly detected by the antenna even after removing all the disturbing sources.

Then it was realized that it is cosmic microwave background radiation.

Your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in th
REY [17]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.

If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.

The best answer is therefore option D.

A wooden artifact from a Chinese temple has a 14C activity of 41.0 counts per minute as compared with an activity of 58.2 counts
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relation between activity and number of radioactive atom in the sample is as follows

dN / dt = λ N where λ is disintegration constant and N is number of radioactive atoms

For the beginning period

dN₀ / dt = λ N₀

58.2 = λ N₀

similarly

41 = λ N

dividing

58.2 / 41 = N₀ / N

N = N₀ x .70446

formula of radioactive decay

N=N_0e^{-\lambda t }

.70446 =e^{-\lambda t }

- λ t = ln .70446 =   - .35

t = .35 / λ

λ = .693 / half life

= .693 / 5715

= .00012126

t = .35 / .00012126

= 2886.36

= 2900 years ( rounding it in two significant figures )
