A pitcher throws a softball toward home plate. When the ball hits the catcher’s mitt, its horizontal velocity is 32 meters/secon

d. The softball’s velocity goes to 0 meters/second in 0.8 seconds when caught. If the softball has a mass of 0.2 kilograms, what’s the force of the impact? Use F = ma, where . The force of the impact is newtons.

Answer:  I just took the test on Plato and the correct answer is 8

Explanation:

To calculate the force of impact F, first lets calculate the acceleration a of the ball:

a=v/t where v is the velocity of the ball and t is time

a=32/0.8=40 m/s²

To get the force F we need the Newtons second law:

F=m*a where m is the mass of the ball and a is the acceleration.

F=m*a= 0.2*40 = 8 N

So the impact force is F= 8 N.

Light of wavelength 608.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 88.5 cm from the slit.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.167 mm

Explanation:

Wavelength of light, \lambda=608\ nm=608\times 10^{-9}\ m

Distance from screen to slit, D = 88.5 cm = 0.885 m

The distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is 1.61 cm, y = 1.61 cm = 0.0161 m

We need to find the width of the slit. The formula for the distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is :

y=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{a}

where

a = width of the slit

a=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{y}

a=\dfrac{5\times 0.885\ m\times 608\times 10^{-9}\ m}{0.0161\ m}

a = 0.000167 m

a=1.67\times 10^{-4}\ m

a = 0.167 mm

So, the width of the slit is 0.167 mm. Hence, this is the required solution.

☆ Correct and rewrite the following statements:
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

<h3>e)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • Electroplating is based on magnetic effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, while electroplating there are two rods, one becoming cathode and another one becoming anode. During electroplating, when electricity is given through the rods, the anode produces positive ions which gets received at the cathode rod and negative ions produced at cathode collects at anode rod which results to the plating of the desired substance. Here, it is a chemical effect of electricity resulting to plating.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>Electroplating</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>based</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>chemical</em><em> </em><em>effect</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>electricity</em><em>.</em><em> </em>

<h3>f)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • An electric bulb glows due to the chemical effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, in an electric bulb there is a filament. When electricity is given in that filament of the electric bulb, the filament gets intensely heated up and results to the emission of light. Due to this heating of the filament due to electricity the electric bulb glows.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>A</em><em>n electric bulb glows due to the </em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>effect of electricity.</em>

If wheel turning at a constant rate completes 100 revolutions in 10 s its angular speed is:
GenaCL600 [577]
The frequency of the wheel is given by:
f= \frac{N}{t}
where N is the number of revolutions and t is the time taken. By using N=100 and t=10 s, we find the frequency of the wheel:
f= \frac{100}{10 s}=10 s^{-1}

And now we can find the angular speed of the wheel, which is related to the frequency by:
\omega=2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 s^{-1})=62.8 s^{-1}
