39.2 J

Explanation:

Step 1:

To find the potential energy the following formula is used.

Potential Energy = m × g × h

Where,

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

h = Height

Step 2:

Here m = 4 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², h = 1 m

Potential Energy = ( 4 × 9.8 × 1)

= 39.2 J

Which layer of the sun's atmosphere are you looking at when you look at me in image of the Sun

Hitman42 [59]

The answer is Photosphere. The photosphere is the lowest layer of the solar atmosphere. It is essentially the solar "surface" that we see when we look at the Sun in "white" light. It is like a glowing fog, so at a distance, it looks solid, the same way a cloud looks solid from a distance.

The moment of inertia is $24.8 kg m^2$

Explanation:

The total moment of inertia of the system is the sum of the moment of inertia of the rod + the moment of inertia of the two balls.

The moment of inertia of the rod about its centre is given by

$I_r = \frac{1}{12}ML^2$

where

M = 24 kg is the mass of the rod

L = 0.96 m is the length of the rod

Substituting,

$I_r = \frac{1}{12}(24)(0.96)^2=1.84 kg m^2$

The moment of inertia of one ball is given by

$I_b = mr^2$

where

m = 50 kg is the mass of the ball

$r=\frac{L}{2}=\frac{0.96}{2}=0.48 m$ is the distance of each ball from the axis of rotation

So we have

$I_b = (50)(0.48)^2=11.5 kg m^2$

Therefore, the total moment of inertia of the system is

$I=I_r + 2I_b = 1.84+ 2(11.5)=24.8 kg m^2$

Baseball player A bunts the ball by hitting it in such a way that it acquires an initial velocity of 1.3 m/s parallel to the gro

Answer:

Explanation:

cSep 20, 2010

well, since player b is obviously inadequate at athletics, it shows that player b is a woman, and because of this, she would not be able to hit the ball. The magnitude of the initial velocity would therefore be zero.

First you need to solve for time by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1m=(1/2)(9.8)t^2 vertical initial velocity is 0m/s

t=.45 sec

Then you find the horizontal distance traveled by using

v=d/t

1.3m/s=d/.54sec

d=.585m

Then you need to find the time of player B by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1.8m=(1/2)(9.8)(t^2) vertical initial velocity is 0

t=.61 sec

Finally to find player Bs initial horizontal velocity you use the horizontal equation

v=d/t

v=.585m/.61 sec

so v=.959m/s
