A baseball is thrown with a horizontal velocity of 40.20 m/s and no vertical velocity. If the ball leaves the pitcher's hand at

a height of 2.000 m above the ground, how far will the ball travel before it hits the ground? (Air resistance is negligible.)
A.12.68 m
B.16.48 m
C.25.73 m
D.51.46 m

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

initial velocity along vertical=0

velocity along horizontal Vx=40.20 m/s

acceleration along the vertical=9.8 m/s²

displacement along vertical,h=2 m

using the kinematic equation

h= vi*t + 1/2 g t²

2=0(t) + 1/2 (9.8)t²

t²=0.408

t=0.639 s

now the displacement along vertical= x= Vx* t

x=40.20 (0.639)

x=25.73 m

Answer:

Jim's kinetic energy is 54.67 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 15 kg

Velocity, V = 2.7 m/s

We need to find the Jim's kinetic energy. We know that when the object is in motion, it has kinetic energy. This energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 15\ kg\times (2.7\ m/s)^2

E = 54.67 J

So, Jim's kinetic energy is 54.67 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is a scientific model?
avanturin [10]

Answer:

A <u>scientific model</u> is a physical and/or mathematical and/or conceptual representation of a system of ideas, events or processes. Scientists seek to identify and understand patterns in our world by drawing on their scientific knowledge to offer explanations that enable the patterns to be predicted.

Fed [463]
<u>#2</u>
Use the formula ... Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

<u>#3 - a).</u>
sun => energy travels as electromagnetic waves => reaches Earth as
         heat & light energy.

sun => absorbed in plants => eaten by animals => animals die =>
       decay into oil in millions of years => we burn the oil to get the energy.

<u>#3 - b).</u>
food I ate for lunch => metabolized into glucose by my body
       => some of it burned in my muscles to generate energy for immediate needs
       => the rest of it stored as fat for future needs.

<u>#3 - c).</u>
flower pot rolls off the ledge => gravity does work on it all the way down,
       producing the kinetic energy it has when it hits the floor.

<u>#3 - d).</u>
oil or natural gas is burned, releasing heat energy => energy is used
       to generate electricity => electricity flows through cables from the
       power generating plant to your home => hot plate plugged into the
       wall => turns electrical energy back into heat energy => heat energy
       is conducted into the bottom of the beaker, flows through the glass
       to the inside surface => heat energy is conducted from the inside of
       the glass to the water, which gets hotter as it absorbs more energy. 
=============================

<u>Note:</u>
#1 on the sheet is wrong.
"Work = force x distance"  that's correct
But 25-kg is the <em>mass</em> of the ball, <em>not </em>the gravitational <em>force </em>on it.
The force on it is (mass) x (gravity), called its "weight".
   That's (25-kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 245 kg-m/s² = 245 newtons .

An object has the mass of 42g on earth, what is its mass on the moon
telo118 [61]

Answer: 42g

Mass will still stay the same because mass is a weight without pull of gravitational force. So whichever plant it is in, even in jupiter, the mass is going to be 42g.
