Average acceleration of the baseball: -101 m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the motion of the baseball is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement of the object

For the baseball in this problem, we have:

u = 2.2 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity (it comes to a stop)

s = 24 mm = 0.024 m is the displacement of the ball while decelerating

Therefore, we can solve for a to find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-2.2^2}{2(0.024)}=-101 m/s^2

where the negative sign means the baseball is slowing down.

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.

Displacement vectors of 4 km north, 2km south, 5 km north, and 5km south combine to a total displacement of A 2 km south B 16 km
Phantasy [73]
The north vectors add up as so the south vectors.  Then subtract the two.  For north its 4 + 5 = 9.  South is 2 + 5 = 7.   Then 9-7 = 2km North (D)
