A softball player swings a bat, accelerating it from rest to 2.6 rev/srev/s in a time of 0.20 ss . Approximate the bat as a 0.90
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

\tau=22.13Nm

Explanation:

information we have:

mass: m=0.9kg

lenght: L=0.95m

frequency: f=2.6rev/s

time: t=0.2s

and from the information we have we can calculate the angular velocity \omega. which is defined as

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi (2.6rev/s)\\\omega=16.336 rev/s

----------------------------

Now, to calculate the torque

We use the formula

\tau=I \alpha

where I  is the moment of inertia and \alpha is the angular acceleration

moment of inertia of a uniform rod about the end of it:

I=\frac{1}{3}mL^2

substituting known values:

I=\frac{1}{3} (0.9kg)(0.95m)^2\\I=0.271kg/m^2

for the torque we also need the acceleration \alpha which is defined as:

\alpha=\frac{\omega}{t}

susbtituting known values:

\alpha=\frac{16.336rev/s}{0.2s} \\\alpha=81.68rev/s^2

and finally we substitute I and  \alpha  into the torque equation \tau=I \alpha:\tau=(0.271kg/m^2)(81.68rev(s^2)\\\tau=22.13Nm

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

∑F = ma

T = m v² / r

10 N = (1 kg) v² / (10 m)

World-class sprinters can accelerate out of the starting blocks with an acceleration that is nearly horizontal and has magnitude
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks is 705 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sprinter, m = 47 kg

magnitude of the his horizontal acceleration, aₓ = 15 m/s²

The horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks to produce this acceleration, is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fₓ = maₓ

∑Fₓ = 47 x 15

∑Fₓ = 705 N

Therefore, the horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks is 705 N
