What is the acceleration of a softball if it has a mass of 0.5 kg and hits the cathers glove with a force of 25n
ioda
Acceleration is found if we have the force and mass. 

With the following equation: F = ma, we can find the missing values. 

F = 25n
M = 0.5 kg
a = ?

a = f/m
a = 25/0.5
a = 50

a = 50 m/s

So, the acceleration is 50 m/s^2

Velocityis a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. Using complete sentences, describethe object's velocity. Co
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.

Which statement best explains how a planet affects the orbit of a comet as the comet passes by the planet?
mezya [45]
Comets orbit the sun just like planets do. Except a comet usually has a very elongated orbit. Thanks to the laws of gravity comets obey the same laws. A comets orbit takes it very close to the sun and then far away again.

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time.The velocity of the first airplane is 700 m/h at a heading of 31.3 the velocity
MArishka [77]

Here in order to find out the distance between two planes after 3 hours can be calculated by the concept of relative velocity

v_{12} = v_1 - v_2

here

speed of first plane is 700 mi/h at 31.3 degree

v_1 = 700 cos31.3\hat i + 700 sin31.3\hat j

v_1 = 598.12\hat i + 363.7\hat j

speed of second plane is 570 mi/h at 134 degree

v_2 = 570 cos134 \hat i + 570 sin134 \hat j

v_2 = -396\hat i + 410\hat j

now the relative velocity is given as

v_{12} = (598.12 + 396)\hat i + (363.7 - 410)\hat j

v_{12} =994.12\hat i -46.3 \hat j

now the distance between them is given as

d = v* t

d = (994.12 \hat i - 46.3 \hat j)* 3

d = 2982.36\hat i - 138.9\hat j

so the magnitude of the distance is given as

d = \sqrt{2982.36^2 + 138.9^2}

d = 2985.6 miles

so the distance between them is 2985.6 miles
