You throw a baseball straight up in the air so that it rises to a maximum height much greater than your height. Is the magnitude

of the ball’s acceleration greater while it is being thrown or after it leaves your hand? Explain.

The ball's acceleration is constant in magnitude and direction, from the instant it leaves your hand, until the instant it hits the ground, no matter what direction or speed you throw it.

It's the acceleration of gravity, on whatever planet you happen to be standing when you throw the ball.

A person holds a ladder horizontally at its center. Treating the ladder as a uniform rod of length 4.15 m and mass 7.98 kg, find
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

4.535 N.m

Explanation:

To solve this question, we're going to use the formula for moment of inertia

I = mL²/12

Where

I = moment of inertia

m = mass of the ladder, 7.98 kg

L = length of the ladder, 4.15 m

On solving we have

I = 7.98 * (4.15)² / 12

I = (7.98 * 17.2225) / 12

I = 137.44 / 12

I = 11.45 kg·m²

That is the moment of inertia about the center.

Using this moment of inertia, we multiply it by the angular acceleration to get the needed torque. So that

τ = 11.453 kg·m² * 0.395 rad/s²

τ = 4.535 N·m

A crate falls from an airplane flying horizontally at an altitude of 2,000 m.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

20.2 seconds

Explanation:

The airplane (and therefore the crate) initially has no vertical velocity, so v₀ = 0 m/s.

The crate is in free fall, so a = -9.8 m/s².

The crate falls downward, so Δx = -2000 m.

Find: t, the time it takes for the crate to land.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

-2000 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 20.2 s

It takes 20.2 seconds for the crate to land.

They realize there is a thin film of oil on the surface of the puddle. If the index of refraction of the oil is 1.81, and they o
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The right solution is "165.8 nm".

Explanation:

Given:

Index of refraction,

n = 1.81

Wavelength,

λ = 600 nm

We know that,

⇒ t=\frac{\lambda}{2\times n}

By putting the values, we get

      =\frac{600}{2\times 1.81}

      =165.8 \ nm
