at a major league baseball game, you are sitting a distance 52 meters from home plate. how much time passes between seeing josh

sound travels through air at around 340 - 350 m/s.

to cover 52 meters takes it, say, (52/345) = about 0.15 second

This would be the same time-lag even if it were not a major-league game,
except that you might not be able to get a seat 52 meters from home plate
at a little league or t-ball game.

A 6 m long, uniform ladder leans against a frictionless wall and makes an angle of 74.3 ◦ with the floor. The ladder has a mass
olganol [36]

Answer: µ=0.205

Explanation:

The horizontal forces acting on the ladder are the friction(f) at the floor and the normal force (Fw) at the wall. For horizontal equilibrium,

f=Fw

The sum of the moments about the base of the ladder Is 0

ΣM = 0 = Fw*L*sin74.3º - (25.8kg*(L/2) + 67.08kg*0.82L)*cos74.3º*9.8m/s²

Note that it doesn't matter WHAT the length of the ladder is -- it cancels.

Solve this for Fw.

0= 0.9637FwL - (67.91L)2.652

Fw=180.1/0.9637

Fw=186.87N

f=186.81N

Since Fw=f

We know Fw, so we know f.

But f = µ*Fn

where Fn is the normal force at the floor --

Fn = (25.8 + 67.08)kg * 9.8m/s² =

910.22N

so

µ = f / Fn

186.81/910.22

µ= 0.205

What change happens when matter<br> changes states?
Snowcat [4.5K]
Matter either loses or absorbs energy when it changes from one state to another. For example, when matter changes from a liquid to a solid, it loses energy. The opposite happens when matter changes from a solid to a liquid. For a solid to change to a liquid, matter must absorb energy from its surroundings.

An object that is initially not rotating has a constant torque of 3.6 N⋅m applied to it. The object has a moment of inertia of 6
Korolek [52]

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

Angular acceleration is equal to Net Torque divided by rotational inertia, which is the rotational equivalent to Newton’s 2nd Law.  Therefore, angular acceleration is equal to 3.6/6 which is 0.6. Hope this helped!

ou are sitting in your car at rest at a traffic light with a bicyclist at rest next to you in the adjoining bicycle lane. As soo
madam [21]

Till the time car is just adjacent to the bicycle we can say

distance moved by cycle = distance moved by car

Time taken by car to accelerate from rest

t = \frac{v_f - v_i}{a}

t = \frac{49 - 0}{7} = 7 s

Time taken by cycle to accelerate

t = \frac{23 - 0}{15} = 1.53 s

now the distance moved by cycle in time "t"

d = \frac{23 + 0}{2}*1.53 + 23(t - 1.53)

distance moved by car in same time

d = \frac{7t + 0}{2}(t)

now make them equal

3.5t^2 = 17.595 - 35.19 + 23t

3.5 t^2 - 23t + 17.595 = 0

t = 5.68 s

so cycle will move ahead of car for t = 5.68 s
