Answer:

Mass of ball = 3.0102 Kg.

Explanation:

Potential energy at height h is given by

PE = mgh

where m is the mass of the body

g is the the acceleration due to gravity whose value is 9.8 m/s^2

h is the height from surface level

PE is potential energy

In the problem given h = 2 meters

PE = 59 joules

59 = m*9.8*2

=> m = 59/9.8*2 = 3.0102 Kg

Thus, mass of ball is 3.0102 Kg.

A baseball is hit from a height of 4 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 110 feet per second and at an angle of 35

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Part a)

$h = 62.2 ft$

Part b)

It will not able to cross the pole

Explanation:

As we know that ball is hit with speed of 110 ft/s at an angle of 35 degree

so here we will say

$v_y = 110 sin35$

$v_x = 110 cos35$

now at the maximum height the vertical velocity will become zero

so here we can use kinematics

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2 a h$

here we have

$a = -32 ft/s^2$

$v_f = 0$

$v_y = 63.1 ft/s$

now we have

$0 - 63.1^2 = 2(-32)h$

$h = 62.2 ft$

Part b)

now the height of ball is related to the distance from point of projection is given as

$y = xtan\theta - \frac{gx^2}{2v^2cos^2\theta}$

now we know that

$x = 375 ft$

$y = 375(tan35) - \frac{(32)(375^2)}{2(110^2)(cos35)^2}$

$y = 262.6 - 277.12 = -14.5 ft$

since its coming negative so it will not able to cross the pole

Which statement accurately describes the big bang theory? The universe began at an outer boundary and has been collapsing since

iren [92.7K]

Answer: The statements are missing hence I will give you a summary of what the big bang theory .

answer : The big bang theory explains how the energies of every speck of the universe came together at a point ( very dense point ) and eventually exploded creating the various galaxies we have today

Explanation:

The Big bang theory describes how the Universe and the various galaxies that exist began some billion of years ago, It describes how the energies of every speck of the universe came together at a point ( very dense point ) and eventually exploded creating the various galaxies we have today
