Typically no. Displacement can be in multiple directions as a vector. of something is traveling only along x, then it would be true though this is usually not the case.

Displacement is the distance and direction from the start point to the end point.

If the motion starts and stops on the x-axis, then the displacement is equal to delta-x toward either the left or the right. But that would be rare and unusual.

Last night Mookie Betts hit a baseball at 32.5 m/s at a 45° angle. Betts

podryga [215]

Answer:

a) Since the height of the baseball at 99 m was 8.93 m and the fence at that distance is 3m tall, the hit was a home run.

b) The total distance traveled by the baseball was 108.7 m.

Explanation:

a) To know if the hit was a home run we need to calculate the height of the ball at 99 m:

$y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{f}$ : is the final height =?

$y_{0}$ : is the initial height = 1 m

$v_{0_{y}$ : is the initial vertical velocity = v₀sin(45)

v₀: is the initial velocity = 32.5 m/s

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

t: is the time

First, we need to find the time by using the following equation:

$t = \frac{x}{v_{0_{x}}} = \frac{99 m}{32.5 m/s*cos(45)} = 4.31 s$

Now, the height is:

$y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = 1m + 32.5 m/s*sin(45)*4.31 s - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}*(4.31 s)^{2} = 8.93 m$

Since the height of the baseball at 99 m was 8.93 m and the fence at that distance is 3m tall, the hit was a home run.

b) To find the distance traveled by the baseball first we need to find the time of flight:

$y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$0 = 1 m + 32.5m/s*sin(45)t - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2}$

$1 m + 32.5m/s*sin(45)t - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2} = 0$

By solving the above quadratic equation we have:

t = 4.73 s

Finally, with that time we can find the distance traveled by the baseball:

$x = v_{0_{x}}*t = 32.5 m/s*cos(45)*4.73 s = 108.7 m$

Hence, the total distance traveled by the baseball was 108.7 m.

I hope it helps you!

Urgent !!!

The weight is not coming from the center of the mass because the force that act on it is not is equal is side.(2) section B donot have weight because the ruler bend down and section be raise up so no weight.

75kg man climbs a mountain 1000m high in 3hrs and uses 4100 joulse/min. (a) calculate the power consumption in watt, (b) what is

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Power consumption is 4100 J/min / 60 s/min = 68.3 W(atts)

work done raised the potential energy

b) 75(9.8)(1000) / (3(3600)) = 68.055555... 68.1 W

c) efficiency is 68.1 / 68.3 = 0.99593... or nearly 100%

Not a very likely scenario.

Currents during lightning strikes can be up to 50000 A (or more!). We can model such a strike as a 47500 A vertical current perp

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field

B = 12 X 10⁻⁴ T

= Bil where B is magnetic field , i is current and l is length of conductor

force required = 12 x10⁻⁴ x 47500 x 1

= 57 N
