A baseball has a mass of 145 g. A bat exerts a force of 18,400 N on the ball. What is the acceleration of the ball?
amid [387]

The correct formula to use for the situation given above is: F = MA, where F is the applied force, M is the mass of the object and A is the acceleration.

From the details given in the question, we are told that:

F = 18, 400N

M = 145 g = 145 / 1000 = 0.145 kg

A = ?

From the equation F = MA

A = F / M

A = 18,400 / 0.145 = 126,896.55 = 1.27 *10^5.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

A girl throws a rock horizontally at 10 m/s from the top of a building, 22 m above street level. Assuming free fall conditions a
MAXImum [283]

Answer:21.18 m

Explanation:

Given

initial speed u=10 m/s

height of building h=22 m

time taken to complete 22 m

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

initial vertical velocity =0

22=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

t=\sqrt{\frac{22\times 2}{g}}

t=2.11 s

Horizontal Distance moved

R=u_x\times t

R=10\times 2.11

R=21.18 m

If 270 watts of power is used in 42 seconds, how much work was done<br>​
navik [9.2K]

Answer: W = 11340J

Explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

So this is the Formula: Power = Work / Time.

<u>Step 1:</u><em><u> Find the Formula</u></em>

P = W / T

<em><u> </u></em>

<u>Step 2: </u><u><em>Make W the subject of the equation.</em></u>

W = PT

<u>Step 3:</u><u> </u><u><em>Given.</em></u>

P = 270 Watts, T = 42 seconds

<u>Step 4:</u><u><em> Substitute these values into equation 2 .</em></u>

W = 270(42)

<u>Step 5:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify.</em></u>

W = 11340J

The amount of work done was 11340.

~I hope I helped you! :)~
