Answer:

22m/s

Explanation:

To find the velocity we employ the equation of free fall: v²=u²+2gh

where u is initial velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity h is the height, v is the velocity the moment it hits the ground, taking the direction towards gravity as positive.

Substituting for the values in the question we get:

v²=2×9.8m/s²×25m

v²=490m²/s²

v=22.14m/s which can be approximated to 22m/s

vazorg [7]

Answer:879.29 N-m

Explanation:

Given

mass of first child m_1=44 kg

distance of first child from tree is r_1=1 m

tree is inclined at an angle of \theta =27^{\circ}

mass of second child m_1=27 kg

distance of second child from tree is r_2=2.1 m

Weight of first child=m_1g=431.2 kg

Weight of second child=m_2g=264.6 kg

Torque of first child weight=m_1g\cos \theta \cdot r_1

T_1=44\times 9.8\times \cos 27\times 1=384.202 N-m

Torque of second child weight=m_2g\cos \theta \cdot r_2

T_2=27\times 9.8\times \cos 27\times 2.1=495.096 N-m

Net torque T_{net}=T_1+T_2=384.202+495.096=879.29 N-m

A baseball player hits a baseball with a bat. The mass of the ball is 0.25 kg. The ball accelerates at 200 m/s2
EastWind [94]

Answer:

50N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)

0.25kg times 200m/s² = 50N
