Answer:

<h2>a) The base baseball was in air for 0.64 seconds.</h2><h2>b) Speed of throwing is 32.89 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

a)Consider the vertical motion of baseball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = ?

         Displacement, s = 2 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      2 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                      t = 0.64 seconds

The base baseball was in air for 0.64 seconds.

b)Consider the horizontal motion of baseball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = ?

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Time, t = 0.64 s      

         Displacement, s= 21 m

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      21 = u x 0.64 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.64²

                      u = 32.89 m/s

      Speed of throwing is 32.89 m/s

A car of mass 1167 kg accelerates on a flat highway from 10 m/s to 28.0 m/s. How much work does the car's engine do on the car?
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Workdone = 465766038 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 1167

Initial velocity = 10m/s

Final velocity =28m/s

To find the workdone;

We know that from the workdone theorem, the workdone by an object or a body is directly proportional to the kinetic energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

Mathematically, it is given by the equation;

W = Kf - Ki

W = ½MVf² - ½MVi²

Substituting into the equation

W = ½(1167)*28² - ½(1167)*10²

W = ½ * 1361889* 784 - ½ * 1361889 * 100

W = 533860488 - 68094450

Workdone = 465766038 Joules.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 23.2 for continuous charge distribution problems. A straight wire of length L has a positiv
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

             E = k Q / [d(d+L)]

Explanation:

As the charge distribution is continuous we must use integrals to solve the problem, using the equation of the elective field

       E = k ∫ dq/ r² r^

"k" is the Coulomb constant 8.9875 10 9 N / m2 C2, "r" is the distance from the load to the calculation point, "dq" is the charge element  and "r^" is a unit ventor from the load element to the point.

Suppose the rod is along the x-axis, let's look for the charge density per unit length, which is constant

         λ = Q / L

If we derive from the length we have

        λ = dq/dx       ⇒    dq = L dx

We have the variation of the cgarge per unit length, now let's calculate the magnitude of the electric field produced by this small segment of charge

        dE = k dq / x²2

        dE = k λ dx / x²

Let us write the integral limits, the lower is the distance from the point to the nearest end of the rod "d" and the upper is this value plus the length of the rod "del" since with these limits we have all the chosen charge consider

        E = k \int\limits^{d+L}_d {\lambda/x^{2}} \, dx

We take out the constant magnitudes and perform the integral

        E = k λ (-1/x){(-1/x)}^{d+L} _{d}

   

Evaluating

        E = k λ [ 1/d  - 1/ (d+L)]

Using   λ = Q/L

        E = k Q/L [ 1/d  - 1/ (d+L)]

 

let's use a bit of arithmetic to simplify the expression

     [ 1/d  - 1/ (d+L)]   = L /[d(d+L)]

The final result is

     E = k Q / [d(d+L)]

A 5 kg ball takes 13.3 seconds for one revolution around the circle. What's the magnitude of the angular velocity of this motion
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: 0.47 rad/sec

Explanation:

By definition, the angular velocity is the rate of change of the angle traveled with time, so we can state the following:

ω = ∆θ/ ∆t

Now, we are told that in 13.3 sec, the ball completes one revolution around the circle, which means that, by definition of angle, it has rotated 2 π rad (an arc of 2πr over the radius r), so we can find ω as follows:

ω = 2 π / 13.3 rad/sec = 0.47 rad/sec
