Explanation:
Mass of baseball, m = 0.148 kg
Initial speed of the ball, u = 14.5 m/s
Final speed of the ball, v = 11.5 m/s
After crashing through the pane of a second-floor window, the ball shatters the glass as it passes through, and leaves the window at 11.5 m/s with no change of direction. So, the direction of the impulse that the glass imparts to the baseball is in opposite direction to the direction of the balls path.
The change in momentum of the ball is called impulse. It is given by :
Hence, this is the required solution.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
Torque = <em>2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm</em>
Energy = <em>3.54 x 10³³ J</em>
Average power = <em>1.02 x 10²⁸ W</em>
<h2>Explanation:</h2>(a) Torque (τ) is the rotational effect of a given force.
It is given by
τ = I x α -------------(i)
Where;
I = rotational inertia of the object
α = angular acceleration of the object.
In this case, the object is the Earth. Therefore,
I = 9.71 x 10³⁷ kg m²
α = ω / t
Where;
ω = angular velocity of earth = 2π rad / day
<em>Since </em>
<em>1 day = 24 hours and 1 hour = 3600seconds</em>
<em>1 day = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400seconds</em>
<em>=> ω = 2π rad / 86400seconds</em>
<em>=> ω = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s</em>
<em />
t = 4 days = 4 x 24 x 3600 seconds = 345600 seconds
=> α = ω / t
=> α = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ / 345600
=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵) / (3.456 x 10⁵)
=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵⁻⁵) / (3.456)
=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻¹⁰) / (3.456)
=> α = 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ rad/s²
Now substitute the values of I and α into equation (i)
τ = 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰
τ = 9.71 x 10²⁷ x 2.11
τ = 20.5 x 10²⁷ Nm
τ = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm
(ii) The energy (rotational energy) E is given by;
E = x I x ω
E = x 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 7.29 × 10⁻⁵
E = 35.4 x 10³² J
E = 3.54 x 10³³ J
(iii) The average power P, is given by;
P = E / t
P = 3.54 x 10³³ / 345600
P = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W
