A baseball bat hits a baseball with a force of 100 newtons. What is the force and its direction exerted by the ball on the bat?
Brut [27]

Answer:

The force exerted by the ball on the bat has a magnitude of 100 N and its direction is exactly opposite to that of the force exerted by the bat on the ball.

Explanation:

Recall that Newton's third law tells us that : "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Therefore if the bat acts on the ball with a force of 100 N, the ball acts on the bat with a similar magnitude of force (100 N) but direction opposite to the original force.

F_{ab} = -\,F_{ba}

. A stationary mass explodes into two parts of mass 4 kg and 40 kg . If the K.E of larger mass is 100 J . The K.E of small mass
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

10J

Explanation:

KE = (1/2)mv²

100J = (.5)(40kg)v²

v²=(100J)/(20kg)

v²= 5

KE = 5(.5)(4kg)

KE = 10J

If the average velocity during the athlete's walk back
goblinko [34]

Hence ,From the Guide there are other parameters which with this equation will give the exact time the athlete's walk back

T=\frac{d}{1.50}

From the question we are told

If the average velocity during the athlete's walk back  to the starting line in Guided Example 2.5 is – 1.50 m/s,

Generally the equation Time spent  is mathematically given as

T=\frac{d}{v}

Therefore

T=\frac{d}{1.50}

Hence ,From the Guide there are other parameters which with this equation will give the exact time the athlete's walk back

T=\frac{d}{1.50}

1. explain why mid-sized cars and SUVs have different rollover fatality rates.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

1.  They generally have poorer fuel efficiency and require more resources to manufacture than smaller vehicles, thus contributing more to climate change and environmental degradation. Their higher center of gravity increases their risk of rollovers.

2. Mid-sized cars and SUVs both have a fixed object fatality rate of 2.6/BVM. This is most likely because they have a similar mass and inertia. The force of the crash is likely to have about the same deceleration in both vehicles.

27 degrees to kelvin, 20 dg to milligrams, and 3 to decimeters.
Gala2k [10]
K = C + 273, so 27°C = 27+273 = 300 K

1 dg = 100 mg, so 20 dg = 20×100 = 2,000 mg
