Answer:

Maximum height, h = 11.32 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

The baseball is thrown directly upward at time, t = 0

Initial speed of the baseball, u = 14.9 m/s

Ignoring the resistance in this case and using a = g = 9.8 m/s²

We have to find the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand. Let the maximum height is h. Using third equation of motion as :

$v^2-u^2=2ah$

At maximum height, v = 0

and a = -g = -9.8 m/s²

$h=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}$

$h=\dfrac{0-(14.9\ m/s)^2}{2\times -9.8\ m/s^2}$

h = 11.32 meters

Hence, the maximum height of the baseball is 11.32 meters.

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at a constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcyc

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

(a) 3.807 s

(b) 145.581 m

Explanation:

Let Δt = t2 - t1 be the time it takes from the moment when the motorcycle starts to accelerate until it catches up with the car. We know that before the acceleration, both vehicles are travelling at a constant speed. So they would maintain a distance of 58 m prior to the acceleration.

The distance traveled by car after Δt (seconds) at $v_c = 23m/s$ speed is

$s_c = \Delta t v_c = 23\Delta t$

The distance traveled by the motorcycle after Δt (seconds) at $m_m = 23 m/s$ speed and acceleration of a = 8 m/s2 is

$s_m = \Delta t v_m + a\Delta t^2/2$

$s_m = 23\Delta t + 8\Delta t^2/2 = 23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2$

We know that the motorcycle catches up to the car after Δt, so it must have covered the distance that the car travels, plus their initial distance:

$s_m = s_c + 58$

$23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2 = 23\Delta t + 58$

$4 \Delta t^2 = 58$

$\Delta t^2 = 14.5$

$\Delta t = \sqrt{14.5} = 3.807s$

(b)

$s_m = 23 \Delta t + 4 \Delta t^2$

$s_m = 23*3.807 + 58 = 145.581 m$

How does stress influence our immune system?

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

When you experience prolonged stress, your body needs those T-cells and white blood cells, and unfortunately, cortisol continues to suppress them, thus weakening your immune system over time.

Explanation:

Stress, Illness and the Immune System. ... When we're stressed, the immune system's ability to fight off antigens is reduced. That is why we are more susceptible to infections. The stress hormone corticosteroid can suppress the effectiveness of the immune system

A 5.50 kg sled is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal road. The sled is pulled a distance of 3.20 m by a force of 25.

kiruha [24]

(a) 69.3 J

The work done by the applied force is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where:

F = 25.0 N is the magnitude of the applied force

d = 3.20 m is the displacement of the sled

$\theta=30^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the sled

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

$W=(25.0 N)(3.20 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=69.3 J$

(b) 0

The problem says that the surface is frictionless: this means that no friction is acting on the sled, therefore the energy dissipated by friction must be zero.

(c) 69.3 J

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the applied force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the sled:

$\Delta K = W$

where

$\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy

W is the work done

Since we already calculated W in part (a):

W = 69.3 J

We therefore know that the change in kinetic energy of the sled is equal to this value:

$\Delta K=69.3 J$

(d) 4.9 m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the sled can be rewritten as:

$\Delta K=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$ (1)

where

Kf is the final kinetic energy

Ki is the initial kinetic energy

m = 5.50 kg is the mass of the sled

u = 0 is the initial speed of the sled

v = ? is the final speed of the sled

We can calculate the variation of kinetic energy of the sled, $\Delta K$ , after it has travelled for d=3 m. Using the work-energy theorem again, we find

$\Delta K= W = Fd cos \theta =(25.0 N)(3.0 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=65.0 J$

And substituting into (1) and re-arrangin the equation, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(65.0 J)}{5.50 kg}}=4.9 m/s$

lara [203]

Answer:

$E' = \frac{1}{8} E$

Explanation:

Given data:

first case

Distance of electric field from center of sphere is r_1 <R

Electric field at r_1< R

$E = \frac{kQr_1}{R^3}$

second case

Distance of electric field from centre of sphere is r_1 < 2R

Electric field at r_1< 2R

$E' = \frac{kQr_1}{8R^3}$

so, we have

$E' = \frac{1}{8} E$
