Explanation:
We have,
Mass of a baseball is 0.147 kg
Initial velocity of the baseball is 44.5 m/s
The ball is moved in the opposite direction with a velocity of 55.5 m/s
It is required to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.
Change in momentum,

Impulse = 14.7 kg-m/s
Therefore, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat is 14.7 kg-m/s
The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The thermosphere is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. It extends from about 90 km (56 miles) to between 500 and 1,000 km (311 to 621 miles) above our planet.
Answer:
f1 = -3.50 m
Explanation:
For a nearsighted person an object at infinity must be made to appear to be at his far point which is 3.50 m away. The image of an object at infinity must be formed on the same side of the lens as the object.
∴ v = -3.5 m
Using mirror formula,
i/f1 = 1/v + 1/u
Where f1 = focal length of the contact lens, v = image distance = -3.5 m, u = object distance = at infinity(∞) = 1/0
∴ 1/f1 = (1/-3.5) + 1/infinity
Note that, 1/infinity = 1/(1/0) = 0/1 =0.
∴ 1/f1 = 1/(-3.5) + 0
1/f1 = 1/(-3.5)
Solving the equation by finding the inverse of both side of the equation.
∴ f1 = -3.50 m
Therefore a converging lens of focal length f1 = -3.50 m
would be needed by the person to see an object at infinity clearly
