A baseball bat hits a ball is an example of contact force.

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Contact force is defined as those forces which are acting between two bodies by actually touch between two bodies.

In case of the book falling to ground, the force acting is the gravitational force. Gravitational force acts even when two bodies aren't in contact. So its a non contact force.

Similar is the condition of the leaf and ground where the gravitational force acts.

The magnetic force between the paper clip and the magnet is also non contact force, which acts even when two bodies aren't in contact.

But the bat hitting the ball is having direct contact between the two bodies, and their contact is what makes the ball fly off. So its a contact force.

A car has a speed of 2m/s and a mass of 1500 kg. what is the car's kinetic energy
larisa86 [58]
We have: K.E. = mv² / 2
Here, m = 1500 Kg
v = 2 m/s

Substitute their values in the formula, 
K.E. = 1500 ×2² / 2
K.E. = 6000 / 2
K.E. = 3000 J or 3 KJ

Finally, answer of your question would be 3000 Joule or 3 Kilojoule

Hope this helps!

The average bulk resistivity of the human body (apart from surface resistance of the skin) is about 5.0 Ω⋅m. The conducting path
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

A) R = 1019.11 Ω

B) V = 101.91 V

Explanation:

a) The resistance is given by the formula;

R = ρL/A

Where;

ρ is bulk density = 5.0 Ωm

L is length of cylinder = 1.6m

A is area = (π/4)D² = (π/4) x 0.1² = 0.007854 m²

Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain ;

R = (5 Ωm x 1.6m)/(0.007854 m²)

R = 1019.11 Ω

b) potential difference is given by;

V = RI

Thus, plugging in relevant values, we obtain;

V = 1019.11 Ω ∙ 0.1A

V = 101.91 V
