A batter hits two baseballs with the same force.One hits the ground near third base.The other is a home run out of the park.Wher
andrezito [222]

The formula for work is:

W = F * d  Where W is work, F is Force, and d is distance.

Without doing any math, it can be seen from the equation that work is directly proportional to the force applied and the distance it travels.  The homerun hit both traveled more distance and had a grater force applied to it in order to achieve this distance (assuming both baseballs weighed the same).  Based on this reasoning, it is valid to conclude that the baseball which was a homerun was the hit that accomplished more work.

A rock is sitting at the edge of a flat merry-go-round at a distance of 1.6 meters from the center. The coefficient of static fr
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

ω = 2.1 rad/sec

Explanation:

  • As the rock is moving along with the merry-go-round, in a circular trajectory, there must be an external force, keeping it on track.
  • This force, that changes the direction of the rock but not its speed, is the centripetal force, and aims always towards the center of the circle.
  • Now, we need to ask ourselves: what supplies this force?
  • In this case, the only force acting on the rock that could do it, is the friction force, more precisely, the static friction force.
  • We know that this force can be expressed as follows:

       f_{frs} = \mu_{s} * F_{n} (1)

      where μs = coefficient of static friction between the rock and the merry-

      go-round surface = 0.7, and Fn = normal force.

  • In this case, as the surface is horizontal, and the rock is not accelerated in the vertical direction, this force in magnitude must be equal to the weight of the rock, as follows:
  • Fn = m*g (2)
  • This static friction force is just the same as the centripetal force.
  • The centripetal force depends on the square of the angular velocity and the radius of the trajectory, as follows:

       F_{c} = m* \omega^{2}*r (3)

  • Since (1) is equal to (3), replacing (2) in (1) and solving for ω, we get:

       \omega = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_{s} * g}{r} } = \sqrt{\frac{0.7*9.8m/s2}{1.6m}} = 2.1 rad/sec

  • This is the minimum angular velocity that would cause the rock to begin sliding off, due to that if it is larger than this value , the centripetal force will be larger that the static friction force, which will become a kinetic friction force, causing the rock to slide off.

When a small object is launched from the surface of a fictitious planet with a speed of 52.9 m/s, its final speed when it is ver
NISA [10]

Answer:

The escape speed of the planet is 41.29 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 52.9 m/s

Final speed = 32.3 m/s

We need to calculate the launched with excess kinetic energy

Using formula of kinetic energy

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

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times(32.3)^2

We need to calculate the escape speed of the planet

Using formula of kinetic energy

\text{escape kinetic energy}=\text{launch kinetic energy}-\text{excess kinetic energy}

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

\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(52.9)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times(32.3)^2

v=\sqrt{2\times(\dfrac{1}{2}\times(52.9)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times(32.3)^2)}

v=41.29\ m/s

Hence, The escape speed of the planet is 41.29 m/s.
