A baseball is hit with a bat. The direction of the ball is completely reversed and its speed is doubled. If the actual contact w

ith the bat lasts what is the ratio of the acceleration to the original velocity?

Before the impact, let the velocity of the baseball was v m/s.

After being hit by the bat its velocity is -2v
So, change in velocity, Deltav=v-(-2v)=3v
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity, i.e. actual change in velocity divided by the time taken to change it. Time taken to change velocity is the time of actual contact of the bat and ball, i.e. 0.31 s.

a=(Deltav)/(Deltat)
=(3v)/0.37
Therefore, a/v=3/0.31=9.7 s^-1
So, the ratio of acceleration of the baseball to its original velocity is 9.7.

Answer:

ratio = 9.67

Explanation:

given,

initial velocity = v

final velocity  = - 2 v

change in velocity = v-(-2v)

                               = 3 v

assuming the time be t = 0.31 s

acceleration = \dfrac{change\ in\ velocity}{time}

                     = \dfrac{3v}{0.31}

                     = 9.67 v

ratio = \dfrac{a}{v} = \dfrac{9.67 v}{v}

ratio = 9.67

1. Avogadro's hypothesis. Avogadro hypothesized that equal volumes of all gases (at the same pressure) will have the same number of molecules. From PV=nRT, we know that one mole of gas takes up 22.4 L
2. Mass number. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus so Carbon 12 has an atomic number of 6 which indicates 6 protons, and a mass number of 12 so 12-6 = 6 neutrons.
3. Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number is the number of units in one mole of any substance, which has been defined as 6.02 x10^23
4. Isotopes are the different forms of a single element. They differ in neutrons. One example is Hydrogen which has three isotopes Protium, Deuterium, and Tritium.
5. Atomic mass. The mass of the atom is equal to the sum of the protons and the neutrons as electrons are so small their mass is negligible. This is not exactly the same as the mass number because this number takes into account the different isotopes
6. mole A mole has the same number of entities as 12 grams of carbon 12, it is expressed by Avogadro's number so 1 mole = 6.02 x10^23 atoms or molecules, etc
7. molar mass- the amount that one mole of substance weighs. For carbon 12, 12 grams has one mole of atoms by definition. So for carbon 12, the molar mass is 12 g/mol

Death Star has a diameter of 160,000m and a mass of 5.1e17kg. Millennium Falcon has a mass of 1.36e6kg (data from Wookieepedia)
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

7229 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is given by:

F=G\frac{mM}{R^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg is the mass of the Death Star

m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m is the radius of the Death Star

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the force

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(1.36\cdot 10^6 kg)(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{(80,000 m)^2}=7229 N
