A student throws a baseball at a large gong 52 m away and hears the sound of the gong 1.73333 s later. The speed of sound in air

is 330 m/s.
What was the average speed of the base- ball on its way to the gong? (For simplicity, assume its trajectory to be a straight line.)

Speed = 52/1.57576= 33 m/s

Explanation:

Distance = speed * time

Given , the distance traveled by the baseball = 52 m

Speed of sound in air = 330 m/s

Total time  = 1.73333 s .

Total time for the student to hear the sound of the gong is the sum of the time take for the baseball to reach the gong and the time taken by the sound to travel back.

Distance traveled by the sound is 52 m and the speed is 330 m/s

So time taken by the sound to travel back = distance traveled / the speed

=> time = 52/330 s = 0.15757 s

Time taken by the base ball to reach the gong is the total time - the time taken by the sound

=> time taken by base ball = 1.73333 - 0.15757 = 1.57576s

Speed of the base ball to reach the gong = distance / time

Speed = 52/1.57576= 33 m/s

2 Why <br> Force is needed​
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The use of force in our everyday life is very common. We use force to walk on the road, to lift the objects, to throw a cricket ball, or to move a given body by some particular speed or direction. We are very familiar with the various effects of force. We can exert pull and push.

Test Due! Which statement is true?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The correct answer is C. Mercury and Mars have the same gravitational force

Explanation:

This chart compares the different features of two planets in our solar system (Mercury and Mars). In this chart, the only numerical value or feature that is the same for both planets is gravity because for both planets gravity is 1.7 m/s2. This implies the gravitational force or the force that attracts objects towards the center of the planet is the same or that objects are pulled with the same force in both planets. Moreover, this factor depends on others such as mass, density, among others.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

V=22.4m/s;T=2.29s

Explanation:

We will use two formulas in order to solve this problem. To determine the velocity at the bottom we can use potential and kinetic energy to solve for the velocity and use the uniformly accelerated displacement formula:

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\\\X= V_{0}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}

Solving for velocity using equation 1:

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\\\gh=\frac{v^{2}}{2}\\\\\sqrt{2gh}=v\\\\v=\sqrt{2*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}*25.6m}=22.4\frac{m}{s}

Solving for time in equation 2:

-25.6m = 0\frac{m}{s}t-\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}t^{2}}{2}\\\\-51.2m=-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}t^{2}\\\\t=\sqrt{\frac{51.2m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}=2.29s
