The force is -12,000 N

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the acceleration of the ball, by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where:

v = 0 is the final velocity of the baseball (it comes to rest)

u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m is the displacement of the ball

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-40^2}{2(0.02)}=-40,000 m/s^2

Now we can calculate the average force exerted on the ball, by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

m = 300 g = 0.3 kg is the mass of the ball

a=-40,000 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting,

F=(0.3)(-40,000)=-12,000 N

where the negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to the direction of motion of the ball.

k0ka [10]

Answer: 19 s

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, distance  and time is given by:

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity= 323 m/17 m/s= 19 s

Explain the benefits of understanding sound waves properties in real life.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The vibrations from sound waves cause our ears to send signals to our brains to create sound. The speed of sound waves will determine the sound's pitch, or how high or low something sounds. Sound waves are important because they allow us to hear important messages and emergency signals to protect ourselves.

In a single wire, how much current would be required to generate 1 Tesla magnetic field at a 2 meter distance away from the wire
aev [14]

Answer:

12.56 A.

Explanation:

The magnetic field of a conductor carrying current is give as

H = I/2πr ............................... Equation 1

Where H = Magnetic Field, I = current, r = distance, and π = pie

Making I the subject of the equation,

I = 2πrH............... Equation 2

Given: H = 1 T, r = 2 m.

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 2

I = 2×3.14×2×1

I = 12.56 A.

Hence, the magnetic field = 12.56 A.
