A person in the back of a pick-up moving at 20 m/s relative to the Earth, throws a baseball with a speed of 15 m/s in a directio

n opposite the motion of the truck (consider the direction of the truck’s velocity to be positive). What is the velocity of the ball relative to the Earth as it leaves the thrower’s hand?

Answer:

This is known as a Galilean transformation where

V' = V - U

Where the primed frame is the Earth frame and the unprimed frame is the frame moving with respect to the moving frame

V - speed of object in the unprimed frame

U - speed of primed frame with respect to the unprimed frame

Here we have:

V = -15 m/s        speed of ball in the moving frame (the truck)

U =  -20 m/s        speed of primed (rest) frame with respect to moving frame

So  V' = -15 - (-20) = 5 m/s

It may help if you draw a vector representing the moving frame and then add

a vector representing the speed of the ball in the moving frame.

You are an electrician installing the wiring in a new home. The homeowner desires that a ceiling fan with light kits be installe
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

3 fans per 15 A circuit

Explanation:

From the question and the data given, the light load let fan would have been

(60 * 4)/120 = 240/120 = 2 A.

Next, we add the current of the fan motor to it, so,

2 A + 1.8 A = 3.8 A.

Since the devices are continuos duty and the circuit current must be limited to 80%, then the Breaker load max would be

0.8 * 15 A = 12 A.

Now, we can get the number if fans, which will be

12 A/ 3.8 A = 3.16 fans, or approximately, 3 fans per 15 A circuit.

Do you think there might be a point in space between Earth and the Moon where the gravity of each would pull on an object equall
Firlakuza [10]

Answer: Yes.

Explanation:

Assuming Earth and Moon are isolated is space, it is possible to have a point where Earth and Moon will pull at an object with equal force.

That point will be closer to the Moon than the Earth because Moon's gravitational field strength is weaker than Earth's gravitational field strength.

A disk of radius R = 9.54 cm, is centered at the origin and lies along the y–z plane. The disk has a surface charge density σ
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Electric field by charged disk is given as

E = (Charge Density/2u0)*[1 - (z/sqrt(z^2 - R^2))]

R = 9.54cm = 0.0954m, z = 1.01m, Charge density = 4.07 x 10^-6C/m2, e0 = 8.85 x 10^-12F/m.

Substituting all the values in to equation,

E = (2.299 x 10^5) x (8.931 x 10^-3)

E = 2.053 x 10^3N/C

Which of these is
Airida [17]

Answer:c

Explanation:work is force x distance. The wall doesn’t move any distance in A so that’s not work. B involves tasks that do work but I don’t think this is what they’re going for. For a short instance while kicking a ball, your foot is applying a force to the ball which moves a distance before following its own trajectory after contact with your foot. Because the contact has a short duration and isn’t instantaneous, this is work
