An outfielder throws a baseball with an initial speed of 81.8mi/h. Just before an infielder catches the ball at the same level,

the ball’s speed is 110 ft/s. In foot-pounds, by how much is the mechanical energy of the ball– Earth system reduced because of air drag? (The weight of a baseball is 9.0 oz.)

An unmarked police car traveling a constant 95 km/h is passed by a speeder. Precisely 1.00 s after the speeder passes, the polic
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Speed of the speeder will be 28 m/sec

Explanation:

In first case police car is traveling with a speed of 90 km/hr

We can change 90 km/hr in m/sec

So 90km/hr=\frac{90\times 1000m}{3600sec}=25m/sec

Car is traveling for 1 sec with a constant speed so distance traveled in 1 sec = 25×1 = 25 m

After that car is accelerating with a=2m/sec^2 for 7 sec

So distance traveled by car in these 7 sec

S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=25\times 7+\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7^2=224m

So total distance traveled by police car = 224 m

This distance is also same for speeder

Now let speeder is moving with constant velocity v

so 224=\left ( 1+7 \right )v

v = 28 m/sec

Calculate the force needed to bring a 1,019-kg car to rest from a speed of 29 m/s in a distance of 118 m
son4ous [18]
Acceleration = ▵v/▵t
Time = d/v
Fisrt calculate time : ( 118/29 ) = 4 seconds
Then calculate acceleration
A = 29/4 = 7.25 m/s²
Now the force.
Force = mass * acceleration.
F= 1,019 * 7.25
F= 7,387 N

Technician A says that current is created in the stator windings of an alternator. Technician B says that the voltage regulator
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator,  there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.

4. How does a molecule differ from an atom
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a molecule, atoms are bonded together by single, double, or triple bonds. An atom has a nucleus surrounded by electrons. ... So another difference between atoms and molecules is that when similar atoms combine together in varying numbers, molecules of different properties can be formed.

Which person is weightless?
ahrayia [7]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object helps in determining the weight of an object. But a place where there will be no gravity or have zero gravitational pull then it means the person will be weightless.

For example, force of gravity on moon is zero which means any object or person on moon will be weightless.

On the other hand, when a child is in the air as she plays on a trampoline then it means gravitational pull form the earth is acting on it. So, it will definitely has some weight.

Similarly, a scuba diver exploring a deep-sea wreck is under the ground where there will be force of gravity. Hence, it will also have some weight.

Thus, we can conclude that an astronaut on the Moon is the person who is weightless.
