Answer: #.37 times greater

Explanation: Volume of a sphere is: V = \frac{4}{3}·π·r³

Since it is given the diameter of the basketball and the softball, their ratios are r₁ = 3in and r₂ = 2in, in which index 1 represents the basketball and index 2, the softball.

Calculating the volume of basketball:

V₁ = \frac{4}{3} . 3.14 . 3³

V₁ = 113.04 in³

Calculating the volume of softball:

V₂ = \frac{4}{3} . 3.14 . 2³

V₂ = 33.5 in³

Comparing one volume with the other:

\frac{V1}{V2} = \frac{113.04}{33.5} = 3.37

We have that V₁ = 3.37V₂

This means the volume of a basketball is 3.37 times greater than the volume of a softball.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

V₀ₓ = 10.94 m/s

V₀y = 18.87 m/s

Explanation:

To find the launch velocity, we use 1st equation of motion.

Vf = Vi + at

where,

Vf = Final Velocity of Ball = Launch Speed = V₀ = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (Since ball was initially at rest)

a = acceleration = 376 m/s²

t = time = 0.058 s

Therefore,

V₀ = 0 m/s + (376 m/s²)(0.058 s)

V₀ = 21.81 m/s

Now, for x-component:

V₀ₓ = V₀ Cos θ

where,

V₀ₓ = x-component of launch velocity = ?

θ = Angle with horizontal = 59.9⁰

V₀ₓ = (21.81 m/s)(Cos 59.9°)

<u>V₀ₓ = 10.94 m/s</u>

<u></u>

for y-component:

V₀ₓ = V₀ Sin θ

where,

V₀y = y-component of launch velocity = ?

θ = Angle with horizontal = 59.9⁰

V₀y = (21.81 m/s)(Sin 59.9°)

<u>V₀y = 18.87 m/s</u>

450 nm of light falls on a single slit of width 0.30 mm. What is the angular width of the central diffraction peak
Andre45 [30]

Angular width is 3 x 10^-3

Let D be the distance between source and screed d the distance between coherent source then for central diffraction maxima,

where λ is wavelength

Given:

λ = 450 nm = 450×10^−9m

d = 0.3x10^−3m, D = 1m

W = 2 x 450×10^−9/0.3x10^−3*1

To Find:

Angular width

Solution: The width of the central maxima is nothing but the difference between the positions of the first two minima. Hence we will use the expression for the position of minima and accordingly obtain the expression of the width of central maxima and secondary maxima

θ = W/D

θ = 2 x 450×10^−9/0.3x10^−3*1/1 = 3 x 10^-3

Hence, angular width is 3 x 10^-3
