Answer:

p = 6.25 kg-m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of the baseball, v = 44.7 m/s

Weight of the baseball, W = 1.4 N

Firstly we need to find the mass of the baseball. It can be calculated as :

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{1.4\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}

m = 0.14 kg

The momentum of an object is equal to the product of mass and velocity. It is given by :

p=m\times v

p=0.14\ kg\times 44.7\ m/s

p = 6.25 kg-m/s

So, the momentum it have when it hits the catcher is 6.25 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

1.4 N is a weight so calculating it's mass
1.4/9.8 = 0.1428 kg
momentum will be 0.1428*44.7 = 6.38 kgm/s

(I) A novice skier, starting from rest, slides down an icy frictionless 8.0° incline whose vertical height is 105 m. How fast is
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

v = 45.37 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

angle of inclination = 8.0°

Vertical height, H  = 105 m

Initial K.E. = 0 J

Initial P.E. = m g H

Final PE = 0 J

Final KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Using Conservation of energy

KE_i + PE_i + KE_f + PE_f

0 + m g H = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0

v = \sqrt{2gH}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 105}

v = 45.37 m/s

Hence, speed of the skier at the bottom is equal to v = 45.37 m/s

What provides most of the force to allow the runners to move?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

When you are running the most important force that you should understand is friction. Friction is a force that opposes movement between two objects, but for runners friction makes you faster. Friction gives you a better and more efficient way to use your energy into speed.

When a current flows in an aluminum wire of diameter 2.91 mm 2.91 mm , the drift speed of the conduction electrons is 0.000191 m
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Number of electrons are flowing per second is 2.42 x 10¹⁹

Explanation:

The electric current flows through a wire is given by the relation :

I=envA   ....(1)

Here I is current, e is electronic charge, v is drift velocity of electrons and A is the Area of the wire.

But electric current is also define as rate of electrons passing through junction times their charge, i.e. ,

I=Ne      ....(2)

Here N is the rate of electrons passing through junction.

From equation (1) and (2).

eN = envA

N=nvA

But area of wire, A=\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Here d is diameter of wire.

So, N = nv\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Substitute 2.91 x 10⁻³ m for d, 0.000191 m/s for v and 6 x 10²⁸ m⁻³ for n in the above equation.

N = 6\times10^{28}\times 0.000191\times\pi \frac{(2.91\times10^{-3} )^{2} }{4}

N = 2.42 x 10¹⁹ s⁻¹
