Answer:

B) 20N.s is the correct answer

Explanation:

The formula for the impulse is given as:

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in speed

Impulse = m × ΔV

Given:

initial speed  = 40m/s

Final speed = -60 m/s (Since the the ball will now move in the opposite direction after hitting the bat, the speed is negative)

mass = 0.20 kg

Thus, we have

Impulse = 0.20 × (40m/s - (-60)m/s)

Impulse = 0.20 × 100 = 20 kg-m/s or 20 N.s

If the magnitude of a charge is half as much as another charge, but the force experienced is the same, then the electric field s
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

the electric field strength of this charge is two times the strength of the other charge

Explanation:

Using the relationship between electric field and the charge, which is inversely proportionality. Let the the magnitude of the first charge be Q and the respective electric field be E. It implies that;

E1/E2 = Q2/Q1

E2 = E1 x Q1/Q2

      = E x Q/ (Q/2)

       = 2E

A huge tank of glycerine with a density of 1.260 g/cm3 is vertically stationed on a platform which is 15 m above the ground. The
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The tank is losing 4.976*10^{-4}  m^3/s

v_g = 19.81 \ m/s

Explanation:

According to the Bernoulli’s equation:

P_1 + 1 \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh_1 = P_2 +  \frac{1}{2}  \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh_2

We are being informed that both the tank and the hole is being exposed to air :

∴ P₁ = P₂

Also as the tank is voluminous ; we take the initial volume  v_1 ≅ 0 ;

then v_2 can be determined as:\sqrt{[2g (h_1- h_2)]

h₁ = 5 + 15 = 20 m;

h₂ = 15 m

v_2 = \sqrt{[2*9.81*(20 - 15)]

v_2 = \sqrt{[2*9.81*(5)]

v_2= 9.9 \ m/s  as it leaves the hole at the base.

radius r = d/2  = 4/2 = 2.0 mm

(a) From the law of continuity; its equation can be expressed as:

J = A_1v_2

J = πr²v_2    

J =\pi *(2*10^{-3})^{2}*9.9

J =1.244*10^{-4}  m^3/s

b)

How fast is the water from the hole moving just as it reaches the ground?

In order to determine that; we use the relation of the velocity from the equation of motion which says:

v² = u² + 2gh ₂

v² = 9.9² + 2×9.81×15

v² = 392.31

The velocity of how fast the water from the hole is moving just as it reaches the ground is : v_g = \sqrt{392.31}

v_g = 19.81 \ m/s

Suppose that a car traveling to the west (-x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which statement co
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Its acceleration is positive

Explanation:

As the car is moving in the negative x-direction than after applying brake then there will be a decrease in the acceleration but in the opposite direction.

As decreasing acceleration consider to be negative but the car is moving in negative direction which means increasing acceleration is negative by sign convention but by applying brake acceleration decrease but in opposite direction than it will give positive value of acceleration.
