Unbalanced force.

The definition of an unbalanced force is a force that changes the position, speed or direction of the object to which it is applied.

When an object is still it means that is is balanced force. So you would need to add more force to another side to make it move. Which is unbalanced force.

All electromagnetic waves travel in vacuum at the speed of c=3×10^8 m/s. Find the wavelength of microwaves of frequency 10^10 Hz
erica [24]
Recall the wave equation, c=f\lambda where c is the speed of the wave (m/s), f is the frequency of the wave (Hz) and λ is the wavelength of the wave (m).

c=f\lambda \Rightarrow \lambda =  \frac{c}{f} so \lambda =  \frac{3 \times 10^8}{10^{10}} = 0.03 \text{m}

baseball is hit into the air at an initial speed of 37.2 m/s and an angle of 49.3 ° above the horizontal. At the same time, the
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The average speed of the fielder is 5.24 m/s

Explanation:

The position vector of the ball after it was hit can be calculated using the following equation:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

r = position vector at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

α = launching angle.

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

Please, see the attached figure for a graphical description of the problem.

When the ball is caught, its position vector will be (see r1 in the figure):

r1 = (r1x, 0.873 m)

Then, using the equation of the position vector written above:

r1x = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Since the frame of reference is located at the point where the ball was hit, x0 and y0 = 0. Then:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Let´s use the equation of the y-component of r1 to obtain the time of flight of the ball:

0.873 m = 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -0.873 m + 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 4.9 m/s² · t²

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 0.03 s and t = 5.72 s.

It would be impossible to catch the ball immediately after it is hit at t = 0.03 s. Besides, the problem says that the ball was caught on its way down. Then, the time of flight of the ball is 5.72 s.

With this time, we can calculate r1x which is the horizontal distance traveled by the ball from home:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

r1x = 37.2 m/s · 5.72 s · cos 49.3°

r1x = 1.39 × 10² m

The distance traveled by the fielder is (1.39 × 10² m - 1.09 × 10² m) 30.0 m.

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time, then:

average velocity = treveled distance / elapsed time

average velocity = 30.0 m / 5.72 s = 5.24 m/s

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 25.0 m/s and lands 70.0 m from the base of the ramp. How high is
Valentin [98]

Answer:

<em>The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with an initial speed v and from a height h, it follows a curved path ruled by gravity.

The maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac  {2h}{g}}

If the maximum horizontal distance is known, we can solve the above equation for h:

\displaystyle h=\frac  {d^2g}{2v^2}

The skier initiates the horizontal motion at v=25 m/s and lands at a distance d=70 m from the base of the ramp. The height is now calculated:

\displaystyle h=\frac  {70^2\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 25^2}

\displaystyle h=\frac  {4900\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 625}

h= 38.416 m

The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high

Alik [6]

Answer:

An investigation is made to determine the performance of simple thin airfoils in the slightly supersonic flow region with the aid of the nonlinear transonic theory first developed by von Kármán[1]. Expressions for the pressure coefficient across an oblique shock and a Prandtl-Meyer expansion are developed in terms of a transonic similarity parameter. Aerodynamic coefficients are calculated in similarity form for the flat plate and asymmetric wedge airfoils, and curves are plotted. Sample curves for a flat plate and a specific asymmetric wedge are plotted on the usual coordinate grid of Cl, Cd,andCmc/4versus angle of attack and Cl versus Mach Number to illustrate the apparent features of nonlinear flow.
