Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 51 ∘ above the horizontal and ignoring air resistance, what did the initial speed of th

e ball need to be to produce such a home run if the ball was hit at a point 0.9 m (3.0 ft) above ground level? assume that the ground was perfectly flat. express your answer using two significant figures.

horizontal distance of home run is 400 ft = 122 m

height of the home run is 3 ft = 0.9 m

now the angle of the hit is 51 degree

now we have equation of trajectory of the motion

x = vcos\theta * t

y = v sin\theta * t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2

solving above two equations we have

y = xtan\theta - \frac{gx^2}{2v^2cos^2\theta}

now here we will plug in all data

0.9 = 122 tan51 - \frac{9.8 * 122^2}{2*v^2 * cos^251}

0.9 = 150.65 - \frac{184150.2}{v^2}

\frac{184150.2}{v^2} = 149.75

v = 35.1 m/s

<em>so the ball was hit with speed 35.1 m/s from the ground</em>

Two small objects each with a net charge of +Q exert a force of magnitude F on each other. We replace one of the objects with an
Alona [7]

Answer:

F'= 4F/9

Explanation:

Two small objects each with a net charge of +Q exert a force of magnitude F on each other. If r is the distance between them, then the force is given by :

F=\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2} ...(1)

Now, if one of the objects with another whose net charge is + 4Q is replaced and also the distance between +Q and +4Q charges is increased 3 times as far apart as they were. New force is given by :

F'=\dfrac{kQ\times 4Q}{(3r)^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{4kQ^2}{9r^2}.....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2), we get :

\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2}}{\dfrac{4kQ^2}{9r^2}}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2}\times \dfrac{9r^2}{4kQ^2}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\F'=\dfrac{4F}{9}

Hence, the correct option is (d) i.e. " 4F/9"

An electron in a TV picture tube is accelerated through a potential difference of 10 kV before it hits the screen. What is the k
laiz [17]

Answer:

10,000 eV

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its change in electric potential energy:

K=\Delta U=q \Delta V

where:

K is the kinetic energy of the electron

q=1 e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

\Delta V is the potential difference through which the electron has been accelerated

For this electron in the TV, we have

\Delta V=10 kV=10000 V

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the electron in electronvolts is

K=(1 e)(10000 V)=10000 eV

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
Troyanec [42]

The velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 0.311kg

u1 = 30.3m/s

m2 = 0.057kg

u2 = 19.2m/s

Since m2 is moving in opposite direction, u2 = -19.2m/s

Velocity of m1 after collision  = ?

Let the velocity of m1 after collision be v

After collision the momentum is conserved.

Therefore,

m1u1 - m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

v1 = (\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2})u1 + (\frac{2m2}{m1+m2})u2

v1 = (\frac{0.311-0.057}{0.311+0.057})30.3 + (\frac{2 X 0.057}{0.311 + 0.057}) X-19.2\\\\v1 = (\frac{0.254}{0.368} )30.3 + (\frac{0.114}{0.368}) X -19.2\\ \\v1 = 20.91 - 5.95\\\\v1 = 14.96

Therefore, the velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

A 3.00 kg mud ball has a perfectly inelastic collision with a second mud ball that is initially at rest. the composite system mo
viva [34]
Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:

m_{1} * v_{1} +  m_{2} * v_{2} =  m_{1} * v'_{1} +  m_{2} * v'_{2}

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.

We have following information:
m₁=3 kg
m₂=? kg
v₁=x m/s
v₂=0 m/s
v'1 = v'2 = 1/3 * v₁

Now we insert given information and solve for m₂:
3*v₁ + 0*? = 3*1/3*v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
3v₁ = v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
2v₁ = m₂*1/3*v₁
2 = m₂*1/3
m₂= 6kg

Mass of second mud ball is 6kg.
