A baseball bat is 32 inches (81.3 cm) long and has a mass of 0.96 kg. Its center of mass is 22 inches (55.9 cm) from the handle

end. You hold the bat at the very tip of the handle end (the knob) and let it swing in simple harmonic motion. What is the bat’s moment of inertia if its period of oscillation is 1.35 seconds?

Answer:

0.24 kgm²

Explanation:

L = length of the bat = 81.3 cm = 0.813 m

m  = mass of the bat = 0.96 kg

d  = distance of the center of mass of bat from the axis of rotation = 55.9 cm = 0.559 m

T  = Period of oscillation = 1.35 sec

I = moment of inertia of the bat

Period of oscillation is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mgd}}

1.35 = 2(3.14) \sqrt{\frac{I}{(0.96)(9.8)(0.559)}}

I = 0.24 kgm²

What is the time constant of a series circuit where the capacitor is 0.330μF and the resistor is 10Ω ?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

\tau=3.3*10^{-6}s

Explanation:

Take at look to the picture I attached you, using Kirchhoff's current law we get:

C*\frac{dV}{dt}+\frac{V}{R}=0

This is a separable first order differential equation, let's solve it step by step:

Express the equation this way:

\frac{dV}{V}=-\frac{1}{RC}dt

integrate both sides, the left side will be integrated from an initial voltage v to a final voltage V, and the right side from an initial time 0 to a final time t:

\int\limits^V_v {\frac{dV}{V} } =-\int\limits^t_0 {\frac{1}{RC} } \, dt

Evaluating the integrals:

ln(\frac{V}{v})=e^{\frac{-t}{RC} }

natural logarithm to both sides in order to isolate V:

V(t)=ve^{-\frac{t}{RC} }

Where the term RC is called time constant and is given by:

\tau=R*C=10*(0.330*10^{-6})=3.3*10^{-6}s

A volleyball player’s hand applies a 39 N force while in contact with a volleyball for 2 seconds. What is the impulse on the bal
nikklg [1K]
Given:
F = 39 N, the force applied
t = 2 s, the time interval in which the force is applied.

By definition, the impulse is
I = \int_{0}^{2} F(t) dt = \int _{0}^{2} 39dt = 39*2=78 \, N-s

Answer: 78 N-s

Why is it important to be able to trace the pole connection on a meter back to the same type of pole at the electrical source?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Explanation:

A grounded wire is sometimes strung along the tops of the towers to provide lightning protection.

In areas where the neutral is grounded or earthed, it is essential to endure that the neutral and the live or hot wires are not confused for each other.

When this happens, the fuses on the transformer will not operate unless the fault is very close to the transformer. The fuses in the consumer's intake box, will not operate.
