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.

Citrus2011 [14]
The momentum of both the identical balls would eventually be transferred to one another when it comes to a point wherein they will collide. In addition, the phenomenon is called an elastic collision wherein both the momentum and energy of the system would considered to be conserved.

Two cars having different weights are traveling on a level surface at different constant velocities. Within the same time interv
GuDViN [60]

I think you're saying that once you start pushing on the cars, you want to be able to stop each one in the same time. 

This is sneaky.  At first, I thought it must be both 'c' and 'd'.  But it's not
kinetic energy, for reasons I'm not ambitious enough to go into.
(And besides, there's no great honor awarded around here for explaining
why any given choice is NOT the answer.)

The answer is momentum.

Momentum is (mass x speed).  Change in momentum is (force x time).

No matter the weight (mass) or speed of the car, the one with the greater
momentum is always the one that will require the greater (force x time)
to stop it.  If the time is the same for any car, then more momentum
will always require more force.

Two identical particles of charge 6 μμC and mass 3 μμg are initially at rest and held 3 cm apart. How fast will the particles mo
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The charges will repel each other and go away with increasing velocity , their kinetic energy coming from their potential energy .

Their potential energy at distance d

= kq₁q₂ / d

= 9 x 10⁹ x 36 x 10⁻¹² / 2 x 10⁻² J

= 16.2 J

Their total kinetic energy will be equal to this potential energy.

2 x 1/2 x mv² = 16.2

= 3 x 10⁻⁶ v² = 16.2

v = 5.4 x 10⁶

v = 2.32 x 10³ m/s

When masses are different , total P.E, will be divided between them as follows

K E of 3 μ = (16.2 / 30+3) x 30

= 14.73 J

1/2 X 3 X 10⁻⁶ v₁² = 14.73

v₁ = 3.13 x 10³

K E of 30 μ = (16.2 / 30+3) x 3

= 1.47 J

1/2 x 30 x 10⁻⁶ x v₂² = 1.47

v₂ = .313 x 10³ m/s

Which statements describe properties of stars? Check all that apply.
Shtirlitz [24]
One, three and five are correct.

Although if the second statement is saying that stars use gravitational force to support nuclear fusion which in turn produces energy then that would be correct, but I don’t think so :)
