Lonnie pitches a baseball of mass 0.20 kg. The ball arrives at home plate with a speed of 40 m/s and is batted straight back to

Lonnie with a return speed of 60 m/s. If the bat is in contact with the ball for 0.050 s what is the impulse experienced by the ball? A. 360 N.s B. 20 N.s C. 400 N.s D. 9.0 N.s

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

A swimmer swims 3/5 the width of a river at one velocity, then swims the remainder of the river at half her initial velocity. Wh
SashulF [63]
Let her initial velocity be U.

Let the width of the river be W.

She swims 3/5 the width of the river  at  U.

Remainder width =  (1 - 3/5) = 2/5.

She then swims 2/5 the width with velocity  U/2.


Average Speed  =  (Total Distance Traveled)  /  ( Total Time Taken).


Distance =  Speed * time

time  =  Distance /  Speed.

Time in first trip:    =    (3/5)W / U =   0.6W/U.

Time in second trip  =  (2/5)W / (U/2)  =  0.4W / 0.5 U =  0.8W/U

Total Distance Traveled =  W,  width of the river.

Average Speed  =      W  /  (0.6W/U  +  0.8W/U) =    W /  (1.4W/U)

                             =  W  *  U / 1.4W 
                              =    U/1.4
                              =  U * 10 / 14
                              =  (5/7) U.

Therefore Average speed is  (5/7) of the initial speed.

A girl is running toward the front of a train at 10 m/s. If the train is going 75 m/s on the Southbound tracks, what is the spee
dimulka [17.4K]
We can take as positive direction the direction of the train, and as negative direction the direction of the girl. The speed of the train relative to the girl will be given by the difference between the two velocities:
v' = v_t - v_g
which means
v'=75 m/s - (-10 m/s)=85 m/s
