How does the time at which you see things happen at a baseball game compare to the time when you hear things happen? Explain you

hoa [83]

Answer:

Because of the speed of the sound.

Explanation:

The first thing that happens in such cases is to take into account the speed of the sound. First, we see that the player hits the ball with the bat, if we are in the stands far enough we will hear the sound of the batting time later, this time depends on the speed of the sound which is equal to 345 [m/s].

Another visible and practical example is a fireworks display, where people nearby immediately hear the explosion. while those at a great distance will be able to see first the explosion followed by the sound.

With the following equation, we can calculate how long it takes to hear a hit or explosion

t = x / v

where:

x = distance [m]

v = sound velocity = 345 [m/s]

t = time [s]

A loaded 375 kg toboggan is traveling on smooth horizontal snow at 4.50 m/s when it suddenly comes to a rough region. The region

zmey [24]

Answer:

a) The average friction force exerted on the toboggan is 653.125 newtons, b) The rough region reduced the kinetic energy of the toboggan in 92.889 %, c) The speed of the toboggan is reduced in 73.333 %.

Explanation:

a) Given the existence of non-conservative forces (friction between toboggan and ground), the motion must be modelled by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, since toboggan decrease its speed (associated with due to the action of friction. Changes in gravitational potential energy can be neglected due to the inclination of the ground. Then:

$K_{1} = K_{2} + W_{f}$

Where:

$K_{1}$ , $K_{2}$ are the initial and final translational kinetic energies of the tobbogan, measured in joules.

$W_{f}$ - Dissipated work due to friction, measured in joules.

By applying definitions of translation kinetic energy and work, the expression described above is now expanded and simplified:

$f\cdot \Delta s = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{1}^{2}-v_{2}^{2})$

Where:

$f$ - Friction force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta s$ - Distance travelled by the toboggan in the rough region, measured in meters.

$m$ - Mass of the toboggan, measured in kilograms.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Initial and final speed of the toboggan, measured in meters per second.

The friction force is cleared:

$f = \frac{m\cdot (v_{1}^{2}-v_{2}^{2})}{2\cdot \Delta s}$

If $m = 375\,kg$ , $v_{1} = 4.50\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{2} = 1.20\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $\Delta s = 5.40 \,m$ , then:

$f = \frac{(375\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(4.50\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(1.20\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2}\right]}{2\cdot (5.40\,m)}$

$f = 653.125\,N$

The average friction force exerted on the toboggan is 653.125 newtons.

b) The percentage lost by the kinetic energy of the tobbogan due to friction is given by the following expression, which is expanded and simplified afterwards:

$\% K_{loss} = \frac{K_{1}-K_{2}}{K_{1}}\times 100\,\%$

$\% K_{loss} = \left(1-\frac{K_{2}}{K_{1}} \right)\times 100\,\%$

$\% K_{loss} = \left(1-\frac{\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{2}^{2}}{\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{1}^{2}} \right)\times 100\,\%$

$\% K_{loss} = \left(1-\frac{v_{2}^{2}}{v_{1}^{2}} \right)\times 100\,\%$

$\%K_{loss} = \left[1-\left(\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}\right)^{2} \right]\times 100\,\%$

If $v_{1} = 4.50\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{2} = 1.20\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then:

$\%K_{loss} = \left[1-\left(\frac{1.20\,\frac{m}{s} }{4.50\,\frac{m}{s} }\right)^{2} \right]\times 100\,\%$

$\%K_{loss} = 92.889\,\%$

The rough region reduced the kinetic energy of the toboggan in 92.889 %.

c) The percentage lost by the speed of the tobbogan due to friction is given by the following expression:

$\% v_{loss} = \frac{v_{1}-v_{2}}{v_{1}}\times 100\,\%$

$\% v_{loss} = \left(1-\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} \right)\times 100\,\%$

If $v_{1} = 4.50\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{2} = 1.20\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then:

$\% v_{loss} = \left(1-\frac{1.20\,\frac{m}{s} }{4.50\,\frac{m}{s} } \right)\times 100\,\%$

$\%v_{loss} = 73.333\,\%$

The speed of the toboggan is reduced in 73.333 %.

What is the dimensional formula of pressure ??

Igoryamba

Answer:

pressure is equal to the net amount of force acting per unit area. Dimensional Formulae of force is M1L1T-2 and of area is L2. Therefore Pressure's dimension can be obtained by calculating Force by Area. Dimensional formula of pressure difference is M1L-1T-2.
