A softball player swings a bat, accelerating it from rest to 2.6 rev/srev/s in a time of 0.20 ss . Approximate the bat as a 0.90

-kgkg uniform rod of length 0.95 mm, and compute the torque the player applies to one end of it.

Answer:

\tau=22.13Nm

Explanation:

information we have:

mass: m=0.9kg

lenght: L=0.95m

frequency: f=2.6rev/s

time: t=0.2s

and from the information we have we can calculate the angular velocity \omega. which is defined as

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi (2.6rev/s)\\\omega=16.336 rev/s

----------------------------

Now, to calculate the torque

We use the formula

\tau=I \alpha

where I  is the moment of inertia and \alpha is the angular acceleration

moment of inertia of a uniform rod about the end of it:

I=\frac{1}{3}mL^2

substituting known values:

I=\frac{1}{3} (0.9kg)(0.95m)^2\\I=0.271kg/m^2

for the torque we also need the acceleration \alpha which is defined as:

\alpha=\frac{\omega}{t}

susbtituting known values:

\alpha=\frac{16.336rev/s}{0.2s} \\\alpha=81.68rev/s^2

and finally we substitute I and  \alpha  into the torque equation \tau=I \alpha:\tau=(0.271kg/m^2)(81.68rev(s^2)\\\tau=22.13Nm

An overhead electric power line carries a maximum current of 125 A. What is the magnitude of the maximum magnetic field at a poi
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

Explanation:

B= μoI/(2πr)

B:  magnetic field strength

μo: permeability of free space and is equal to  4π×10^(-7) T.m/A

r: distance from the wire

I : current in the wire

B= (4π×10^(-7)×125)/(2π×4.5)

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

As the temperature of water drops, it continues to give off thermal energy until it freezes. This is an example of.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The answer should be C

Explanation:

An exothermic process releases heat, causing the temperature of the immediate surroundings to rise. An endothermic process absorbs heat and cools the surroundings.

If no heat is lost to the surroundings, how much heat must be added to raise the temperature from 20.0 ∘C to 85.0 ∘C ?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

C_{water} = 4190 J/kg.K

C_{Al} = 910 J/Kg. K

m_{Al} = 1.50 kg

m_{water} = 1.80 kg

Q_{added} = Q_{Al} + Q_{water}

=m_{Al} C_{Al}ΔT + m_{water} C_{water}ΔT

= (1.50)(910)(85.0-20)+(1.80)(4190)(85.0-20)

= 578,955 J

= 579 kJ

Answer:

With the exception of natural gas fossil fuel energies have seen an overall decrease since year 2000.

Explanation:

Just observe the graph

The Fossil fuels include-Petroleum ,coal and natural gases.

  • The graph of these goes fastly up during 20th century but ,then it stabled at the peak then has not shown any solid increase .
  • Observe other energy sources graph ,nuclear energy etc have shown quite speedy increase .

Option C is correct
