True b/c we conserve energy by not using energy to make new materials because we have those available because we recycled

A(n) 0.47 kg softball is pitched at a speed of 10 m/s. The batter hits it back directly at the pitcher at a speed of 29 m/s. The

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

18.33 Ns

Explanation:

As the pitch back speed has the opposite direction as before, the change in velocity would be

$\Delta v = v_2 - v_1 = 29 - (-10) = 39 m/s$

So the change in momentum of the ball would be the product of its velocity change and its mass

$\Delta p = \Delta v m = 39 * 0.47 = 18.33 kgm/s$

This is equals to the impulse acted on the ball by the bat, which is 18.33 Ns

A cannonball is fired vertically upwards at 100.0 m/s a) How long will it take to return to the cannon? b) what is it's maximum

V125BC [204]

Answer:
a) 20s
b) 500m

Explanation:
Given the initial velocity = 100 m/s, acceleration = -10m/s^2 (since it is moving up, acceleration is negative), and at the maximum height, the ball is not moving so final velocity = 0 m/s.

To find time, we apply the UARM formula:

v final = (a x t) + v initial

Replacing the values gives us:

0 = (-10 x t) + 100

-100 = -10t

t = 10s

It takes 10s for the the ball to reach its max height, but it must also go down so it takes 2 trips, once going up and then another one going down, both of which take the same time to occur

So 10s going up and another 10s going down:

10x2 = 20s

b) Now that we have v final = 0, v initial = 100, a = -10, t = 10s (10s because maximum displacement means the displacement from the ground to the max height) we can easily find the displacement by applying the second formula of UARM:

Δy = (1/2)(a)(t^2) + (v initial)(t)

Replacing the values gives us:

Δy = (1/2)(-10)(10^2) + (100)(10)

= (-5)(100) + 1000

= -500 + 1000

= 500 m

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)

What device increases voltage?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Your answer would be C.

A step-up transformer is a transformer that raises voltage from main to secondary by having more secondary winding turns than primary winding turns.

Hope this helps; have a great day!

provides some pertinent background for this problem. A pendulum is constructed from a thin, rigid, and uniform rod with a small

gavmur [86]

Answer:

the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

$T_{simple$ = 0.61 s

we know that, the relationship between T and angular frequency is;

T = 2π/ω ---------- let this be equation 1

Also, the angular frequency of physical pendulum is;

ω = √(mgL / $I$ ) ------ let this equation 2

where m is mass of pendulum, L is distance between axis of rotation and the center of gravity of rod and $I$ is moment of inertia of rod.

Now, moment of inertia of thin uniform rod D is;

$I$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ mD²

since we were not given the length of the rod but rather the period of the simple pendulum, lets combine this three equations.

we substitute equation 2 into equation 1

we have;

T = 2π/ω OR T = 2π/√(mgL/ $I$ ) OR T = 2π√( $I$ /mgL)

so we can use $I$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ mD² for moment of inertia of the rod

Since center of gravity of the uniform rod lies at the center of rod

so that L = $\frac{1}{2}$ D.

now, substituting these equations, the period becomes;

T = 2π/√( $I$ /mgL) OR T = $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}mD^2 }{mg(\frac{1}{2})D } }$ OR T = 2π√(2D/3g ) ----- equation 3

length of rod D is still unknown, so from equation 1 and 2 ( period of pendulum ),

we have;

ω $_{simple$ = 2π/ $T_{simple$ OR ω $_{simple$ = √(g/D) OR ω $_{simple$ = 2π√( D/g )

so we simple solve for D/g and insert into equation 3

so we have;

T = √(2/3) × $T_{simple$

we substitute in value of $T_{simple$

T = √(2/3) × 0.61 s

T = 0.498 s

Therefore, the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s
