5.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of baseball = 0.15kg

Momentum of baseball = 0.78kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of baseball = ?

Solution:

The momentum of the baseball is a function of the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity:

        Momentum = mass x velocity

 Since the speed of the ball is unknown:

           Velocity  =  \frac{momentum }{mass}

                           = \frac{0.78}{0.15}

                           = 5.2m/s

The speed of the baseball before it lands is 5.2m/s

A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 38 ft/s2. what is the dist
e-lub [12.9K]

Convert 38 ft/s^2 to mi/h^2. Then we se the conversion factor > 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.

So now we show it > 38  \frac{ft}{s^2}  x  \frac{1mi}{5280ft} x  \frac{(3600s)^2}{(1h)^2} = 93272.27  \frac{mi}{h^2}

Then we have to use the formula of constant acceleration to determine the distance traveled by the car before it ended up stopping.

Which the formula for constant acceleration would be > v_2^2=v_1^2 + 2as

The initial velocity is 50mi/h (v_1=50)

When it stops the final velocity is (v_2=0)

Since the given is deceleration it means the number we had gotten earlier would be a negative so a = -93272.27

Then we substitute the values in....

0^2 = 50^2 + 2(-93272.27)s&#10;&#10;0 = 2500 - 186544.54s&#10;&#10;Isolate S next.&#10;&#10;185644.54s= 2500&#10;&#10;s =  2500/(185644.54)&#10;&#10;s=0.0134&#10;

So we can say the car stopped at 0.0134 miles before it came to a stop but to express the distance traveled in feet we need to use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet in otherwards > 0.0134 mi *  \frac{5280ft}{1mi}  = 70.8 ft
So this means that the car traveled in feet 70.8 ft before it came to a stop.

A skydiver prepares to jump out of a plane. Explain how gravity and air resistance will affect the motion of the skydiver before
ahrayia [7]
Before the skydiver opens the parachute, his velocity would be increasing greatly as much as 9.8 m/s². Opening the parachute would increase the surface area to which air may cause resistance. The skydiver then reaches his terminal velocity.
