iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

What is the relationship between and experiment and a hypothesis
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

an experiment is a way to test a hypothesis. A hypothesis is a prediction. You predict that if you change one thing (the independent variable) the other thing (the dependent variable) will change.

A 50 kg bumper car with a 40 kg child and it is at rest when a 60 kg child in her own bumper car slams into it the collision las
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

 F = 99 v₂₀

v₂₀ = 1 m / s,        F = 99 N

Explanation:

In this exercise it is asked to find the force during the collision, for this we use the relationship between the momentum and the momentum of car 1

            I = Δp

            F t = p_f- p₀

            F t = m (v_f -v₀)                        (1)

We must find the final speed of car 1, for this we define a system formed by the two cars, in this case the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = 0 + m₂ v₂₀

         

final instant. After the crash

        p_f = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v_{2f}

the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_f

        m₂ v₂₀ = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ v_{2f}           (2)

        m₂ (v₂₀ - v_2f}) = m₁ v_{1f}

as the collision is elastic the kinetic energy is also conserved

        K₀ = K_f

        ½ m₂ v₂₀² = ½ m₁ v_{1f}² + ½ m₂ v_{2f}²

        m₂ (v₂₀² -v_{2f}²) = m₁ v_{1f}²

let's write our system of equations, using

         a² - b² = (a + b) (a-b)

         m₂ (v₂₀ - v_{2f}) = m₁ v_{1f}

         m₂ (v₂₀ -v_{2f}) (v₂₀ + v_{2f}) = m₁ v_{1f}²

to solve we divide the equations

       v₂₀ + v_{2f} = v_{1f}

with this we substitute in equation 2 and find the speed of each car, in this case we need the speed of car 1

         m₂ v₂₀ = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ (v_{1f}-v₂₀)

         2m₂ v₂₀ = (m₁ + m₂) v_{1f}

          v_{1f} = \frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}  v_{2o}

We substitute in the drive ratio of car 1

            F t = m (v_f -v₀)

            F = m₁ (\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}  v_{2o} - 0) / t

            F = \frac{2m_1 m_2 }{m_1+m_2}   \   \frac{v_{2o}}{t}

the mass of each car is the mass of the car plus the mass of the boy

           m₁ = 50 +40 = 90 kg

           m₂ = 50 +60 = 110 kg

     

time is t = 1

         

we substitute the values

           F = \frac{ 2\  90 \ 110}{90+110}  \ \frac{v_{2o}}{1}2 90 100/90 + 110 vo2 / 1

           F = 99 v₂₀

The value of the initial velocity of car 2 is not indicated in the problem, if this velocity is known it can be included and the force value is obtained, suppose that the initial velocity v₂₀ = 1 m / s

           F = 99 N

A single mass (m1 = 3.5 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 278 N/m. 1)What is the dist
artcher [175]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.126m

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;

F = k x e            -------------------(i)

Where;

k = the spring's constant.

From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e

F = W               -----------------------(ii)

<em>But;</em>

W = m x g;

where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]

<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>

F = W = m x g

<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>

F = k x e

m x g = k x e      ------------------(iii)

<em>From the question;</em>

m = m1 = 3.5kg

k = 278N/m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

3.5 x 10 = 278 x e

35 = 278e

<em>Now solve for e;</em>

e = 35/278

e = 0.126m

Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m

Suppose you were bungee jumping from a bridge while blowing a hand-held air horn. How would someone remaining on the bridge hear
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The pitch will progressively lower

Explanation:

If i were bungee jumping from  a bridge while blowing a hand-held air horn and someone who remains on the bridge will hear a decreased pitch or frequency as the source is moving away from the stationary listener as per the Dooplers effect. Hence, the pitch will progressively lower as the source is moving away from the observer.
