Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

Applied force to it, F = 100 N

We need to find the acceleration of the ball. It can be calculated using Newton's second law of motion as :

F = ma

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{100\ N}{0.15\ kg}$

$a=666.67\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.

The position of a particle moving along the x axis varies in time according to the expression x = 4t 2, where x is in meters and

Pie

Answer:

a) X = 17.64 m

b) X = 17.64 + 4∆t^2 + 16.8∆t

c) Velocity = lim(∆t→0)⁡〖∆X/∆t〗 = 16.8 m/s

Explanation:

a) The position at t = 2.10s is:

X = 4t^2

X = 4(2.10)^2

X = 17.64 m

b) The position at t = 2.10 + ∆t s will be:

X = 4(2.10 + ∆t)^2

X = 17.64 + 4∆t^2 + 16.8∆t m

c) ∆X is the difference between position at t = 2.10s and t = 2.10 + ∆t so,

∆X= 4∆t^2 + 16.8∆t

Divide by ∆t on both sides:

∆X/∆t = 4∆t + 16.8

Taking the limit as ∆t approaches to zero we get:

Velocity =lim(∆t→0)⁡〖∆X/∆t〗 = 4(0) + 16.8

Velocity = 16.8 m/s

Martha was leaning out of the window on the second floor of her house and speaking to Steve. Suddenly, her glasses slipped from

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

s = 23.72 m

v = 21.56 m/s²

Explanation:

given

time to reach the ground (t) = 2.2 second

we know that

a) s = u t + 0.5 g t²

u = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

s = 0 + 0.5 × 9.8 × 2.2²

s = 23.72 m

b) impact velocity

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2× 9.8 × 23.72)

v = √464.912

v = 21.56 m/s²

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,

andrew-mc [135]

Energy = (power) x (time)

-- <u>For the toaster:</u>

Power = 1.4 kW = 1,400 watts

Time = 5.4 minutes = 324 seconds

Energy = (1,400 W) x (324 s) = 453,600 Joules

-- <u>For the CFL bulb:</u>

Power = 11 watts

Time = 10.5 hours = 37,800 seconds

Energy = (11 W) x (37,800 s) = 415,800 Joules

-- The toaster uses energy at 127 times the rate of the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses energy at 0.0079 times the rate of the toaster.

-- The toaster is used for 0.0086 times as long as the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb is used for 116.7 times as long as the toaster.

-- The toaster uses 9.1% more energy than the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses 8.3% less energy than the toaster.

The equation below is for potassium oxide.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
