Answer:
ΔP = 14.5 Ns
I = 14.5 Ns
ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN
Explanation:
The mass of the ball is given as 0.145 kg in the complete question. So, the change in momentum will be:
ΔP = mv₂ - mv₁
ΔP = m(v₂ - v₁)
where,
ΔP = Change in Momentum = ?
m = mass of ball = 0.145 kg
v₂ = velocity of batted ball = 55.5 m/s
v₁ = velocity of pitched ball = - 44.5 m/s (due to opposite direction)
Therefore,
ΔP = (0.145 kg)(55.5 m/s + 44.5 m/s)
<u>ΔP = 14.5 Ns</u>
The impulse applied to a body is equal to the change in its momentum. Therefore,
Impulse = I = ΔP
<u>I = 14.5 Ns</u>
the average force can be found as:
I = ΔF*t
ΔF = I/t
where,
ΔF = Average Force = ?
t = time of contact = 2.5 ms = 2.5 x 10⁻³ s
Therefore,
ΔF = 14.5 N.s/(2.5 x 10⁻³ s)
<u>ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN</u>
The parallel component is given by
F=180cos(25)=163.14N
B hey what do u know i took that test to
Yes, scientific method can be applied on many everyday activities to get a reasonable solution. Infact normally we are applying this method without having it in our knowledge that we are applying it.
For example: In morning we are going to office and we start the car, but it is not started.You turn the engine again and again but it simply donot works.
Observation (the state of defining a problem):
The car is not started
Hypothesis (A possible solution based on the information we already know):
The car is not started because it might be out of gas or there can be some other technical fault.
Experiment (testing of hypothesis by applying different methods of solving problem):
You get the fuel and put it inside the car but it still donot works and car didnot start. Experiment didnot get solution.
Analyze the results of data and test another hypothesis
You call a technician and he check with the car engine tries and finds out that the engine was out of order and needs repairing.
Draw conclusion:
The engine do not works when it is out of order and it is a cause of a car not being started.
<em>Now the theory and law making part can not be applied on this case but it is a part of scientific method.</em>
Hope it helps!
