The drag on a pitched baseball can be surprisingly large. Suppose a 145 g baseball with a diameter of 7.4 cm has an initial spee

d of 40.2 m/s (90 mph). Drag coefficient for a pitched baseball equals 0.35.
Part A: What is the magnitude of the ball's acceleration due to the drag force?


Part B: If the ball had this same acceleration during its entire 18.4 m trajectory, what would its final speed be?

Answer:

<h2>Part A)</h2><h2>Acceleration of the ball is 10.1 m/s/s</h2><h2>Part B)</h2><h2>the final speed of the ball is given as</h2><h2>v_f = 35.3 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that drag force is given as

F = \frac{C_d \rho A v^2}{2}

C_d = 0.35

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

A = \frac{\pi(0.074)^2}{4}

A = 4.3 \times 10^{-3} m^2

v = 40.2 m/s

so we have

F = \frac{0.35\times 1.2 (4.3 \times 10^{-3})(40.2)^2}{2}

F = 1.46 N

So acceleration of the ball is

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{1.46}{0.145}

a = 10.1 m/s^2

Part B)

As per kinematics we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 40.2^2 = 2(-10.1)(18.4)

v_f = 35.3 m/s

2 m3 of an ideal gas are compressed from 100 kPa to 200 kPa. As a result of the process, the internal energy of the gas increase
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

work done is -150 kJ

Explanation:

given data

volume v1 = 2 m³

pressure p1 = 100 kPa

pressure p2 = 200 kPa

internal energy = 10 kJ

heat is transferred  = 150 kJ

solution

we know from 1st law of thermodynamic is

Q = du +W    ............1

put here value and we get

-140 = 10 + W

W = -150 kJ

as here work done is -ve so we can say work is being done on system

Answer:

15 protons and 18 electrons

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Element Number
  • Neutral Atoms
  • Ions

Explanation:

We are given the element P. P is 15 on the Periodic Table, meaning it has 15 protons and 15 electrons (all elements are in neutral form).

P³⁻ ion means the element now has a negative charge of 3. We know protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge. 3- means we will have more electrons than protons.

Therefore, P³⁻ would have 15 protons and <em>18</em> electrons:

15 (+) + 18 (-) = 3 (-)

Floor lamps usually have a base with large inertia, while the long body and top have much less inertia. Part A If you want to sh
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia  and this mathematically given as

          I = mr^2

   Where m is the mass

                r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.

Calcular la resistencia de una varilla de grafito de 170 cm de longitud y 60 mm2. Resistividad grafito 3,5 10-5 Ωm
ozzi

Answer:

R = 0.992 Ω

Explanation:

En esta pregunta, dada la información que contiene, debemos calcular la resistencia de la varilla de grafito.

Matemáticamente,

Resistencia = (resistividad * longitud) / Área De la pregunta;

Resistividad = 3,5 * 10 ^ -5 Ωm

longitud = 170 cm = 1,7 m

Área = 60 mm ^ 2 = 60/1000000 = 6 * 10 ^ -5 m ^ 2

Conectando estos valores a la ecuación anterior, tenemos;

Resistencia = (3.5 * 10 ^ -5 * 1.7) / (6 * 10 ^ -5) =

(3.5 * 1.7) / 6 = 0.992 Ω
