A baseball is thrown by the center fielder (from shoulder level) to home plate where it is caught (on the fly at eye level) by t

he catcher. At what point does the magnitude of the vertical component of velocity have its maximum value? (air resistance is negligible)

At the highest point of the trajectory the vertical component will have its zero velocity, and the descent caused by the force of gravity will begin.

Since the ball is thrown with a certain speed, the vertical component reaches its highest point (upwards), until returning to the receiver who will receive the ball with the same vertical component but in the opposite direction (downwards).

Therefore the vertical component will have its highest value at launch.

A 28 g bullet pierces a sand bag 29 cm thick. If the initial bullet velocity was 55 m/s and it emerged from the sandbag with 18
Bumek [7]

The correct answer to the question is 130.4 N.

CALCULATION;

The mass of the bullet is given as m = 28 gram = 0. 028 kg.

The initial velocity of the bullet u = 55 m/s

The final velocity of the bullet  v = 18 m/s.

The distance covered by the bullet through the sand bag s = 29 cm.

                                                                                                   = 0.29 m

Let the acceleration of the bullet is a .

From equation of kinematics, we know that-

                                         v^2-u^2=\ 2as

                                        ⇒ a=\ \frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

                                               =\ \frac{(18)^2-(55)^2}{2\times 0.29}\ m/s^2

                                              =\ -4656.897\ m/s^2

The negative sign is used due to the fact that force is opposing in nature. Its velocity is decreasing with time.

From Newton's second law of motion, we know that net force on a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration.

Mathematically F = ma.

Hence, the frictional force exerted on the bullet is calculated as -

                                              F = m × a

                                                 = 0.028 × (-4656.897) N

                                                 = -130.4 N                     [ANS]

Here, N ( newton) stands for the unit of force.

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.76 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the
alex41 [277]

Answer:

(a)v_1 = a_1t_1 = 1.76 t_1

(b) It won't hit

(c) 110 m

Explanation:

(a) the car velocity is the initial velocity (at rest so 0) plus product of acceleration and time t1

v_1 = v_0 + a_1t_1 = 0 +1.76t_1 = 1.76t_1

(b) The velocity of the car before the driver begins braking is

v_1 = 1.76*20 = 35.2m/s

The driver brakes hard and come to rest for t2 = 5s. This means the deceleration of the driver during braking process is

a_2 = \frac{\Delta v_2}{\Delta t_2} = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{t_2} = \frac{0 - 35.2}{5} = -7.04 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to calculate how far the car has travel since braking to stop

s_2 = v_1t_2 + a_2t_2^2/2

s_2 = 35.2*5 - 7.04*5^2/2 = 88 m

Also the distance from start to where the driver starts braking is

s_1 = a_1t_1^2/2 = 1.76*20^2/2 = 352

So the total distance from rest to stop is 352 + 88 = 440 m < 550 m so the car won't hit the limb

(c) The distance from the limb to where the car stops is 550 - 440 = 110 m

4800 g to kg? With the work pls
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

[See Below]

Explanation:

✦ Formula = Mass / 1000

  ✧ 4800 / 1000 = 4.8

So 4800 grams is equal to 4.8 kilograms.

Answer:

Friction can be increased the longer two objects are rubbed together, since the longer they are rubbed is the more heat produced.
