A baseball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.0 s after being hit. Then 2.5 s afte

r reaching its maximum height, the ball barely clears a fence that is 97.5 m from where it was hit. Assume the ground is level. (a) What maximum height above ground level is reached by the ball? (b) How high is the fence? (c) How far beyond the fence does the ball strike the ground?

Answer:

Part a)

H = 44.1 m

Part b)

y = 13.48 m

Part c)

d = 8.86 m

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that ball will reach at maximum height at

t = 3 s

now we will have

t = \frac{v sin\theta}{g}

now we have

3 = \frac{vsin\theta}{9.8}

v sin\theta = 29.4 m/s

Now maximum height above ground is given as

H = \frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}

H = \frac{29.4^2}{2(9.8)}

H = 44.1 m

Part b)

Height of the fence is given as

y = (vsin\theta) t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

y = (29.4)(5.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.5^2)

y = 13.48 m

Part c)

As we know that its horizontal distance moved by the ball in 5.5 s is given as

x = v_x t

97.5 = v_x (5.5)

v_x = 17.72 m/s

now total time of flight is given as

T = 3 + 3 = 6 s

so range is given as

R = v_x T

R = (17.72)(6)

R = 106.4 m

so the distance from the fence is given as

d = 106.4 - 97.5

d = 8.86 m

PLS HELP<br><br> compare longitudinal and transverse waves
babymother [125]
<span>A transverse wave is one for which the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave whereas, for longitudinalwaves oscillations are in the direction of propagation. Ripples in pond water move about the surface of water and they simultaneously move away from the point-0 too.</span><span>
Longitudinal waves include sound waves(vibrations in pressure, particle of displacement, and particle velocity propagated in an elastic medium) and seismic P-waves (created by earthquakes and explosions). In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of thewave.

(a) Calculate the buoyant force on a 2.00-L helium balloon.
iragen [17]

Answer:

0.0239364 N

0.0057879 N

Explanation:

\rho = Density of the gas

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

V = Volume

Mass of rubber = 1.5 g

Buoyant force is given by

F_b=\rho gV\\\Rightarrow F_b=1.22\times 9.81\times 2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow F_b=0.0239364\ N

The buoyant force is 0.0239364 N

Net vertical force is given by

F_n=F_b-W_{He}-W_{r}\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0239364-0.175\times 2\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81-1.5\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0057879\ N

The net vertical force is 0.0057879 N

Write a hypothesis why the moon has very little liquid water.
Llana [10]
Because the Moon has a very small surface area compared to other spacial geo-bodies, it has cooled down much faster than Earth. Any water on the moon would freeze.
