Suppose a fast-pitch softball player does a windmill pitch, moving her hand through a circular arc with her arm straight. She re

leases the ball at a speed of 25.5 m/s (about 57.0 mph ). Just before the ball leaves her hand, the ball's radial acceleration is 1060 m/s2 . What is the length of her arm from the pivot point at her shoulder

Answer:

61.3 cm

Explanation:

Radial acceleration of the object in circular motion is given by formula

a = \frac{v^2}{R}\\

Given:

a = 1060 m/s^2\\v = 25.5 m/s

 

Plugging in the values in the formula

1060 = \frac{25.5^2}{R}\\R = 0.613 m

so length of his arm is 61.3 cm

What is crossing-over in geneitcs and why is it important
slava [35]
Crossing over, or recombination, is the exchange of chromosome segments between nonsister chromatids in meiosis. Crossing over creates new combinations of genes in the gametes that are not found in either parent, contributing to genetic diversity.

(a) What is the intensity in W/m2 of a laser beam used to burn away cancerous tissue that, when 90.0% absorbed, puts 500 J of en
inysia [295]

Answer:

4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²

Explanation:

A = energy absorbed = 500 J

η = efficiency = 0.90

E = Total energy

Total energy is given as

E = A/η

E = 500/0.90

E = 555.55 J

t = time = 4.00 s

Power of the beam is given as

P = E /t

P = 555.55/4.00

P = 138.88 Watt

d = diameter of the circular spot = 2.00 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Area of the circular spot is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²

A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²

Intensity of the beam is given as

I = P /A

I = 138.88 / (3.14 x 10⁻⁶)

I = 4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²

A parallel-plate capacitor stores charge Q. The capacitor is then disconnected from its voltage source, and the space between th
Stells [14]

Answer:

The relationship between the initial stored energy PE_{i} and the stored energy after the dielectric is inserted PE_{f} is:

c) PE_{f} =0.5\ PE_{i}

Explanation:

A parallel plate capacitor with C_{o} that is connected to a voltage source V_{o} holds a charge of Q_{o} =C_{o} V_{o}. Then we disconnect the voltage source and keep the charge Q_{o} constant . If we insert a dielectric of \kappa=2 between the plates while we keep the charge constant, we found that the potential decreases as:

                                                     V=\frac{V_{o}}{\kappa}

The capacitance is modified as:

                                              C=\frac{Q}{V} =\kappa\frac{Q_{o}}{V_{o}}=\kappa\ C_{o}

The stored energy without the dielectric is

                                               PE_{i}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q_{o}^{2}}{C_{o}}=\frac{1}{2}C_{o}V_{o}^{2}

The stored energy after the dielectric is inserted is:

                                               PE_{f}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^{2}}{C}=\frac{1}{2}CV^{2}

If we replace in the above equation the values of V and C we get that

                                         PE_{f}=\frac{1}{2}\kappa\ C_{o}(\frac{V_{o}}{\kappa})^{2}=\frac{1}{\kappa}(\frac{1}{2}C_{o}V_{o}^{2})

                                                   PE_{f} =\frac{PE_{i}}{\kappa}

Finally

                                                  PE_{f} =0.5\ PE_{i}
