3. Christina is on her college softball team, and she is practicing swinging the bat. Her coach wants her to work on the speed a

nd acceleration of her swing. She has a device that measures the linear velocity of the bat during the swing. Her bat is 0.85 m long. On her first swing, the linear velocity of the bat just prior to the swing is 0 m/s, and 0.15 s later, just prior to ball contact is 16 m/s. What is the average angular acceleration of the end of her bat during the swing?

Answer:

The average angular acceleration is  \alpha =125.487 rad /s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  From the question we are told that

        The length of the bat is l = 0.85m  \

         The initial linear velocity is  u = 0 m/s

         The time is  t = 0.15s

         The velocity at t is  v = 16 m/s

  Generally average  angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

                \alpha  = \frac{w_f - w_o}{t}

        Where w_f is the finial angular velocity which is mathematically evaluated as  

            w_f = \frac{v}{l}

                  w_f = \frac{16}{0.85}

                        = 18.823 rad/s

 and w_o is the initial angular velocity which is zero since initial linear velocity is zero

               So

                         \alpha  = \frac{18.823 - 0}{0.15}

                               \alpha =125.487 rad /s^2

What is the term of movement in a particular direction
Art [367]
That is a vector. It is a combination of direction and velocity. (You can think of Vector from Despicable Me to help you remember the term)

1. Two blocks travel along a level frictionless surface. Block A is initially moving to the right at 5.0 m/s, while block B is i
ad-work [718]

Answer: 2.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of block A  is m_a=2\ kg

mass of block B is m_b=3\ kg

The initial velocity of block A u_a=5\ m/s

the initial velocity of block B is u_b=0

After collision velocity of block A is v_a=1\ m/s

Conserving momentum

m_au_a+m_bu_b=m_av_a+m_bv_b\\\\2\times 5+3\times0=2\times 1+3\times v_b\\\\v_b=\dfrac{8}{3}=2.67\ m/s

The momentum of block A after the collision is P_a=2\times 1=2\ kg.m/s

Therefore, there is no change in sign.
