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.

What is the value of the thickness of the boundary layer at leading edge of the plate?
Harman [31]

Along the flow direction, the boundary layer's thickness varies. For ReT values between 260 and 780, the boundary layer thickness—defined as the depth at which the normalized concentration has a value of 1/e—ranges between 800 and 250 m.

<h3>What is the Boundary layer?</h3>
  • A boundary layer is the thin layer of fluid that forms immediately around a bounded surface in physics and fluid mechanics as a result of the fluid flowing along the surface.
  • A no-slip boundary condition is created as a result of the fluid and wall interaction (zero velocity at the wall).
  • After that, the flow velocity above the surface steadily rises until it reaches the bulk flow velocity again.
  • The term "velocity boundary layer" refers to the thin layer of fluid whose velocity has not yet recovered to that of the main flow.
<h3>What purpose does a boundary layer serve?</h3>
  • Because it is on the fluid's boundary, engineers refer to this layer as the boundary layer.
  • Many aerodynamics issues, such as wing stall, skin friction drag on an object, and the heat transfer that takes place in high-speed flight, depend heavily on the specifics of the flow within the boundary layer.

Bonds: Including Carbon Compounds Quick Check
Sever21 [200]

Metallic bonds are responsible for many properties of metals, such as conductivity. This is because the bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely. That is option C.

<h3>What are metallic bonds?</h3>

Metallic bonds are defined as those bonds that causes the electrostatic attraction between metal cations and delocalized electrons of another metallic substance.

The characteristics of a metallic compound with metallic bonds include the following:

  • strength,

  • malleability,

  • ductility,

  • thermal and electrical conductivity,

  • opacity and

  • luster.

The metallic bonds of these metallic atoms gives them conductivity features because the electrons from the outer shells of the metal atoms are delocalised , and are free to move through the whole structure.

The mass of a single gold atom is 3.27×10-22 grams. how many gold atoms would there be in 236 milligrams of gold?
blsea [12.9K]

The amount of gold atoms could be calculated by dividing the total weight of the gold with the mass of a single gold atom. Just convert the given weight to grams then divide it with 3.27x10^-22 grams. The answer would be 7.22x10^20.
