Answer:

C. sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

Fossils are the preserved remains of animal and plant life which are mostly found embedded in sedimentary rocks. Of the sedimentary rocks, most fossils occur in shale, limestone and sandstone. Earth contains three types of rocks which are metamorphic, igneous and sedimentary.

Answer:

U.S. Federal Government Law addresses government interactions on a national scale, and is largely composed of administrative law and constitutional law. ... State law also establishes and regulates local government for cities, towns, counties, and other communities.In general, a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory

A firefighter with a weight of 707 N slides down a vertical pole with an acceleration of 2.79 m/s2, directed downward. (a) What
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = 908.27 N

Explanation:

Force: Force of a body is defined as the product of mass and its acceleration. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N)

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = Force due to the weight of the firefighter + force due to acceleration.

Ft = Fw - Fa

Where Ft = The vertical force acting on the firefighter, Fw = Force due to the weight of the firefighter, Fa = force due to acceleration.

Fw = mg

Making m the subject of formula in the equation above

m = Fw/g................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the firefighter, g = acceleration due to gravity,

<em>Given: Fw = 707 N, </em>

<em> Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into eqaution 1

m = 707/9.8

m = 72.14 kg.

But, Fa = ma

Where a = acceleration of the firefighter.

<em>Given: a = 2.79 m/s², </em>

<em>And m = 72.14 kg</em>

Fa = 72.14 × 2.79

Fa = 201.27 N

Therefore, Ft = 707 + 201.27  = 908.27 N

Ft = 908.27 N

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = 908.27 N

baseball is hit into the air at an initial speed of 37.2 m/s and an angle of 49.3 ° above the horizontal. At the same time, the
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The average speed of the fielder is 5.24 m/s

Explanation:

The position vector of the ball after it was hit can be calculated using the following equation:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

r = position vector at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

α = launching angle.

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

Please, see the attached figure for a graphical description of the problem.

When the ball is caught, its position vector will be (see r1 in the figure):

r1 = (r1x, 0.873 m)

Then, using the equation of the position vector written above:

r1x = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Since the frame of reference is located at the point where the ball was hit, x0 and y0 = 0. Then:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

0.873 m = v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

Let´s use the equation of the y-component of r1 to obtain the time of flight of the ball:

0.873 m = 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = -0.873 m + 37.2 m/s · t · sin 49.3° - 4.9 m/s² · t²

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 0.03 s and t = 5.72 s.

It would be impossible to catch the ball immediately after it is hit at t = 0.03 s. Besides, the problem says that the ball was caught on its way down. Then, the time of flight of the ball is 5.72 s.

With this time, we can calculate r1x which is the horizontal distance traveled by the ball from home:

r1x = v0 · t · cos α

r1x = 37.2 m/s · 5.72 s · cos 49.3°

r1x = 1.39 × 10² m

The distance traveled by the fielder is (1.39 × 10² m - 1.09 × 10² m) 30.0 m.

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time, then:

average velocity = treveled distance / elapsed time

average velocity = 30.0 m / 5.72 s = 5.24 m/s

What is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kgm2/s) of a 40 g golf ball flying through the air and spinning at 4300 rpm af
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a golf ball, m = 40 g = 0.04 kg

Its angular velocity, \omega=4300\ rpm=450.29\ rad/s

The radius of the sphere is 2.5 cm or 0.025 m

We need to find the magnitude of the angular momentum of the ball. It is given by the formula as follows:

L=I\omega

Where I is moment of inertia

For sphere, I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2

L=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\omega\\\\L=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 0.04\times (0.025)^2\times 450.29\\\\L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s

So, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the sphere is 0.0045\ kg-m^2/s.
