Answer:

v = 5.95 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the baseball, m = 0.150 Kg

The kinetic energy (K.E) of the baseball, E = 118 J

The kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of its velocity. The formula for kinetic energy is given by

E = 1/2 mv² joules

Solving for v

v² = 2mE

$v = \sqrt{2mE}$ m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

$v = \sqrt{2X0.15X118}$

v = 5.95 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the baseball is, v = 5.95 m/s

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Distance of Earth from the Sun has nothing to do with the seasons only the tilt is responsible for the change in seasons.

Explanation:

The Earth's tilt does cause the seasons but the distance from the sun and has nothing to do with the change in seasons. In June, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted in the direction of the Sun during the Northern Hemisphere summer the Earth is actually farthest from the Sun. In January, when the Southern Hemisphere is tilted in the direction of the Sun during the Northern Hemisphere winter the Earth is actually closest to the Sun. This is caused due to the elliptical orbit of the Earth. So, distance of Earth from the Sun has nothing to do with the seasons.

Two cars are traveling at the same constant speed v. Car A is moving along a straight section of the road, while B is rounding a

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Car A is not accelerating, but car B is accelerating

Explanation:

Car A is not accelerating because , it is moving with uniform speed in a particular direction . Therefore its velocity too is not changing .

But car B is accelerating because , though its speed is uniform but its velocity is changing due to change in direction . On a circular path , direction of speed changes every moment . Therefore it has an acceleration called centripetal acceleration . Hence car B has acceleration.

Race relations throughout history has changed over and over. But as far as the modern world race relations have went through all three. Diversity is far more common now ( which I think is positive) .

(5) A 4 kg. object rests on a flat, horizontal surface with a static

baherus [9]

Answer:

F = 9.81 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's third le which tells us that the sum of forces on a body that remains static must be equal to one resulting from these forces in the opposite direction.

Let's perform a summation of forces on the vertical axis-y to determine the normal force N.

∑F = 0 (axis-y)

$N - m*g = 0$

where:

m = mass = 4 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

$N - (4*9.81)=0\\N = 39.24 [N]$

Now we know that the frictional force can be calculated using the following equation.

f = μ*N

where:

f = friction force [N]

μ = friction coefficient = 0.25

N = normal force = 39.24 [N]

Now replacing:

$f = 0.25*39.24\\f = 9.81[N]$

Then we perform a sum of forces on the X-axis equal to zero. This sum of forces allows us to determine the minimum force to be able to move the object in a horizontal direction.

∑F = 0 (axis-x)

$F-f=0\\F-9.81=0\\F= 9.81[N]$

If the coefficient was smaller, a smaller force (F) would be needed to start the movement, this can be easily seen by replacing the value of 0.25, by smaller values, such as 0.1 or 0.05.

If the coefficient were larger, a larger force would be needed.
