Answer:

when batter hit the ball with bat then force is applied by the bat on the ball and same force is applied on the bat by the ball.

This is an example of action reaction law

Explanation:

As we know by newton's III law that every action has equal and opposite reaction force

Which means if a force is applied by an object to another object then the same magnitude force is applied by that object on the first one.

The force will be of same magnitude but opposite in direction

This is known as reaction force.

As per Newton's III law every action has equal and opposite reaction force on it.

So here when batter hit the ball with bat then force is applied by the bat on the ball and same force is applied on the bat by the ball.

This is an example of action reaction law

Yes, think about the difference of swinging a bat and not hitting a ball. It's fairly easy right? Now, when you hit a ball with the bat, you will feel the bat sting your hands. That's the force the ball is exerting on the bat!

Explain why cooler stars are red and hotter stars are blue

sergey [27]

More cool stars produce much of their light in the red part of the spectrum, so you see them, and bam, the color red. More hot stars, however, produce much more of their light in the green and or yellow spectrums, with much more tinier amounts of red / blue. This balance of the colors, your eye, sees simply as white. The more hot something is, the greater frequency of radiation it produces! Blue light has a higher frequency than red light, so the stars that glow red are cooler, than the stars that glow blue. :)

Hope this helped!

While strolling downtown on a Saturday afternoon, you stumble across an old car show. As you are walking along an alley toward a

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

1.44 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+a\times 5\\\Rightarrow v=5a$

This velocity will be the initial velocity of the car when it passes through the first building

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 3=5a\times 0.4+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.4^2\\\Rightarrow a=1.44\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the car is 1.44 m/s²

How much work must be done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 5.0×10^−10 m from one another (at the corners

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

1.38 x 10^-18 J

Explanation:

q = - 1.6 x 10^-19 C

d = 5 x 10^-10 m

the potential energy of the system gives the value of work done

The formula for the potential energy is given by

$U =\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{d}$

So, the total potential energy of teh system is

$U =\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{d}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{d}+\frac{Kq_{1}q_{3}}{d}$

As all the charges are same and the distance between the two charges is same so the total potential energy becomes

$U =3\times \frac{Kq^{2}}{d}$

K = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

By substituting the values

$U =3\times \frac{9\times 10^{9}\times \ 1.6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-38}}{5\times 10^{-10}}$

U = 1.38 x 10^-18 J

A fishing boat accidentally spills 3.0 barrels of diesel oil into the ocean. each barrel contains 42 gallons. if the oil film on

9966 [12]

Number of barrels are 3.0. Each barrel contains 42 gallons of oil. Thus, total volume of oil will be 42×3=126 gallons.

Converting gallons into m^{3}

1 gallon=0.00378 m^{3}

Thus, 126 gallons=0.4769 m^{3}

Thickness of oil film is 2.5\times 10^{2} nm, converting it into meters as follows:

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Thus,

2.5\times 10^{2} nm=1.5\times 10^{-7}m

Now, volume V of oil is related to area A and thickness T as follows:

V=A×T

rearranging,

A=\frac{V}{T}=\frac{0.4769 m^{3}}{2\times 10^{-7}m}=2.38\times 10^{6}m^{2}

Thus, square meters of oil will be 2.38\times 10^{6}m^{2}

An archer pulls her bowstring back 0.410 m by exerting a force that increases uniformly from zero to 270 N. How much work is don

Nitella [24]

Answer:

110.7Joules

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when the force applied to a body cause the body to move through a distance. Mathematically:

Work done = Force * Distance

Given the following

Force = 270 -0 = 270N

Distance moved = 0.410m

Required

The work done

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

Workdone = 270 * 0.41

Workdone = 110.7Joules

Hence the work done in pulling the bow is 110.7Joules
