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

Explain how to find the angle between two nonzero vectors. Choose the correct answer below. A. The angle between two nonzero vec
kozerog [31]

Answer:

θ = Cos⁻¹[A.B/|A||B|]

A. The angle between two nonzero vectors can be found by first dividing the dot product of the two vectors by the product of the two vectors' magnitudes. Then taking the inverse cosine of the result

Explanation:

We can use the formula of the dot product, in order to find the angle between two non-zero vectors. The formula of dot product between two non-zero vectors is written a follows:

A.B = |A||B| Cosθ

where,

A = 1st Non-Zero Vector

B = 2nd Non-Zero Vector

|A| = Magnitude of Vector A

|B| = Magnitude of Vector B

θ = Angle between vector A and B

Therefore,

Cos θ = A.B/|A||B|

<u>θ = Cos⁻¹[A.B/|A||B|]</u>

Hence, the correct answer will be:

<u>A. The angle between two nonzero vectors can be found by first dividing the dot product of the two vectors by the product of the two vectors' magnitudes. Then taking the inverse cosine of the result</u>

A -kilogram car travels at a constant speed of 20. meters per second around a horizontal circular track. The diameter of the tra
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the car is 8\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car, m=10^3\ kg

Diameter of the circular path, d = 100 m

Speed of car, v = 20 m/s

Radius, r = 50 m

When an object moves in a circular path, the centripetal acceleration acts on it. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

a=\dfrac{(20\ m/s)^2}{50\ m}

a=8\ m/s^2

So, the centripetal acceleration of the car is 8\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
