First step in using a balance beam scale?

1 answer:

8 0

To find out the weight of the object, you'll need to slide the weight poises until the pointer is at zero again. Start with the two heavier weight poises and then use the lightest one to do the fine tuning. Our triple beam balance and the Ohaus triple beam balance are accurate to 0.1 grams.

balls a, with a mass of 20 kg, is moving to the right at 20 m/s. At what velocity should Ball B, with a mass of 40 kg, move so t

Leya [2.2K]

In that case, their momentum must be equal.
So, m1v1 = m2v2
20 * 20 = 40 * v2
v2 = 400 / 40
v2 = 10

In short, Your Answer would be: 10 m/s

Hope this helps!

A baseball player leads off the game and hits a long home run. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 70.0 from the horizontal w

professor190 [17]

Answer: 211.059 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$\theta=70\°$ The angle at which the ball leaves the bat

$V_{o}=55 m/s$ The initial velocity of the ball

$g=-9.8 m/s^{2}$ The acceleration due gravity

We need to find how far (horizontally) the ball travels in the air: $x$

Firstly we need to know this velocity has two components:

<u>Horizontally:</u>

$V_{ox}=V_{o}cos \theta$ (1)

$V_{ox}=55 m/s cos(70\°)=18.811 m/s$ (2)

<u>Vertically:</u>

$V_{oy}=V_{o}sin \theta$ (3)

$V_{oy}=55 m/s sin(70\°)=51.683 m/s$ (4)

On the other hand, when we talk about parabolic movement (as in this situation) the ball reaches its maximum height just in the middle of this parabola, when $V=0$ and the time $t$ is half the time it takes the complete parabolic path.

So, if we use the following equation, we will find $t$ :

$V=V_{o}+gt=0$ (5)

Isolating $t$ :

$t=\frac{-V_{o}}{g}$ (6)

$t=\frac{-55 m/s}{-9.8 m/s^{2}}$ (7)

$t=5.61 s$ (8)

Now that we have the time it takes to the ball to travel half of is path, we can find the total time $T$ it takes the complete parabolic path, which is twice $t$ :

$T=2t=2(5.61 s)=11.22 s$ (9)

With this result in mind, we can finally calculate how far the ball travels in the air:

$x=V_{ox}T$ (10)

Substituting (2) and (9) in (10):

$x=(18.811 m/s)(11.22 s)$ (11)

Finally:

$x=211.059 m$
