Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation. Most of the electromagnetic radiation that comes to the earth from the sun is in the form of visible light. Light is made of waves of different frequencies.

A person hits a tennis ball with a mass of 0.058 kg against a wall.
horrorfan [7]

Explanation:

Mass of the ball, m = 0.058 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 11 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -11 m/s (negative as it rebounds)

Time, t = 2.1 s

(a) Let F is the average force exerted on the wall. It is given by :

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}

F=\dfrac{0.058\times (11-(-11))}{2.1}

F = 0.607 N

(b) Area of wall, A=3\ m^2

Let P is the average pressure on that area. It is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P=\dfrac{0.607\ N}{3\ m^2}

P = 0.202 Pa

Hence, this is the required solution.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I got everything but i. Don't know why but it's eluding me. So let's do everything but that.

a. PE = mgh so

   PE = (2.5)(98)(14) and

   PE = 340 J

b. KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 so

   KE=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)(14)^2 and

   KE = 250 J

c. TE = KE + PE so

   TE = 340 + 250 and

   TE = 590 J

d. PE at 8.7 m:

   PE = (2.5)(9.8)(8.7) and

   PE = 210 J

e. The KE at the same height:

   TE = KE + PE and

   590 = KE + 210 so

   KE = 380 J

f. The velocity at that height:

   380=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2 and

   v=\sqrt{\frac{2(380)}{2.5} } so

   v = 17 m/s

g. The velocity at a height of 11.6 m (these get a bit more involed as we move forward!). First we need to find the PE at that height and then use it in the TE equation to solve for KE, then use the value for KE in the KE equation to solve for velocity:

   590 = KE + PE and

   PE = (2.5)(9.8)(11.6) so

   PE = 280 then

   590 = KE + 280 so

   KE = 310 then

   310=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2 and

   v=\sqrt{\frac{2(310)}{2.5} } so

   v = 16 m/s

h. This one is a one-dimensional problem not using the TE. This one uses parabolic motion equations. We know that the initial velocity of this object was 0 since it started from the launcher. That allows us to find the time at which the object was at a velocity of 26 m/s. Let's do that first:

   v=v_0+at and

   26 = 0 + 9.8t and

   26 = 9.8t so the time at 26 m/s is

   t = 2.7 seconds. Now we use that in the equation for displacement:

   Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 and filling in the time the object was at 26 m/s:

   Δx = 0t + \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)2.7)^2 so

   Δx = 36 m

i. ??? In order to find the velocity at which the object hits the ground we would need to know the initial height so we could find the time it takes to hit the ground, and then from there, sub all that in to find final velocity. In my estimations, we have 2 unknowns and I can't seem to see my way around that connundrum.

To test the performance of its tires, a car travels along a perfectly flat (no banking) circular track of radius 130 m. The car
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

0.739

Explanation:

If we treat the four tire as single body then

W ( weight of the tyre ) =  mass × acceleration due to gravity (g)

the body has a tangential acceleration = dv/dt = 5.22 m/s², also the body has centripetal acceleration to the center = v² / r

where v is speed 25.6 m/s and r is the radius of the circle

centripetal acceleration = (25.6 m/s)² / 130 = 5.041 m/s²

net acceleration of the body = √ (tangential acceleration² + centripetal acceleration²) = √ (5.22² + 5.041²) = 7.2567 m/s²

coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road = frictional force / force of normal

frictional force = m × net acceleration / m×g

where force of normal = weight of the body in opposite direction

coefficient of static friction = (7.2567 × m) / (9.81 × m)

coefficient of static friction = 0.739

Two pulleys, one with a radius 2R and one with a radius of R, are welded together and can rotate about the same axis. A block is
Arisa [49]

Answer:

speed will double

Explanation:

Tangential velocity is given by

v=wr

where r is radius and w is rotational velocity. When r is increased to 2R, keeping roational velocity constant, the tangential velocity doubles. Hence unwinding will take place at a twice the rate and the final velocity will be double
