Answer:

Equal to change in momentum of larger mass.

Explanation:

We are given that

Two difference masses .

Force act on both masses for the same length of time.

We have to find the change in momentum of the smaller mass.

Let M and m are two masses

M>m

We know that

Change in momentum for large mass= $F\Delta t$

Change in momentum for small mass= $F\Delta t$

Because Force and length of time are same for both masses .

Hence, the change in momentum of smaller mass is equal to change in momentum of larger mass.

A baseball is batted from a height of 1.09 m with a speed of

kobusy [5.1K]

(a) The horizontal and vertical components of the ball’s initial velocity is 37.8 m/s and 12.14 m/s respectively.

(b) The maximum height above the ground reached by the ball is 8.6 m.

(d) The ball's velocity after 2.0 seconds if there is no crosswind is 38.53 m/s.

<h3>Horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity</h3>

Vx = Vcosθ

Vx = 39.7 x cos(17.8)

Vx = 37.8 m/s

Vy = Vsin(θ)

Vy = 39.7 x sin(17.8)

Vy = 12.14 m/s

<h3>Maximum height reached by the ball</h3>

$H = \frac{v^2 sin^2(\theta)}{2g} \\\\H = \frac{(39.7)^2 \times (sin17.8)^2}{2(9.8)} \\\\H = 7.51 \ m$

Maximum height above ground = 7.51 + 1.09 = 8.6 m

<h3>Distance off course after 2 second </h3>

Upward speed of the ball after 2 seconds, V = V₀y - gt

Vy = 12.14 - (2x 9.8)

Vy = - 7.46 m/s

Horizontal velocity will be constant = 37.8 m/s

Resultant speed of the ball after 2 seconds = √(Vy² + Vx²)

$V = \sqrt{(-7.46)^2 + (37.8)^2} \\\\V = 38.53 \ m/s$

<h3>Resultant speed of the ball and crosswind</h3>

$V = \sqrt{38.52^2 + 4^2} \\\\V = 38.72 \ m/s$

<h3>Distance off course the ball would be carried</h3>

d = Δvt = (38.72 - 38.53) x 2

d = 0.38 m

The ball's velocity after 2.0 seconds if there is no crosswind is 38.53 m/s.

This term means that we are interacting with an item at a high-level, with lower-level internal details hidden from the user.

Option d) abstraction is the correct answer.

Abstraction is the process of taking away or removing characteristics from something in order to reduce it to a set of essential characteristics. In object-oriented programming, abstraction is one of three central principles Through this process, a programmer hides all but the relevant data about an object in order to reduce complexity and increase efficiency.

What is the combined resistance for two resistors with resistances of 10 Ohms and 23.7 Ohms if they are connected in series

Agata [3.3K]

Answer: 33.7Ω

Explanation:

Since there are two resistors connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.

i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2

R1 = 10Ω
