Answer:12.28m/s

Explanation:

momentum of baseball =mass of baseball x velocity of baseball

Momentum of baseball =0.31x21

Momentum of baseball =6.51kgm/s

For a softball to have same momentum with the baseball we can say :momentum of baseball =mass of softball x velocity of softball

6.51=0.53 x velocity of softball

Velocity of softball =6.51/0.53

Velocity of softball =12.28m/s

A spring that is compressed 14.5 cm from its equilibrium position stores 2.99 J of potential energy. Determine the spring consta

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

284.4233 N/m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant

x = Compression of spring = 14.5 cm

U = Potential energy = 2.99 J

The potential energy of a spring is given by

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

Rearranging to get the value of k

$\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{2U}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{2\times 2.99}{0.145^2}\\\Rightarrow k=284.4233\ N/m$

The spring constant is 284.4233 N/m

A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal turn, going from 94.0 km/h to 46.0 km/h in the 17.0 s that it takes to round

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

1.41 m/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert the two speeds from km/h to m/s:

$u = 94.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h} = 26.1 m/s$

$v=46.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=12.8 m/s$

Now we find the centripetal acceleration which is given by

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v = 12.8 m/s is the speed

r = 140 m is the radius of the curve

Substituting values, we find

$a_c=\frac{(12.8 m/s)^2}{140 m}=1.17 m/s^2$

we also have a tangential acceleration, which is given by

$a_t = \frac{v-u}{t}$

where

t = 17.0 s

Substituting values,

$a_t=\frac{12.8 m/s-26.1 m/s}{17.0 s}=-0.78 m/s^2$

The two components of the acceleration are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the resultant acceleration by using Pythagorean theorem:

$a=\sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}=\sqrt{(1.17 m/s^2)+(-0.78 m/s^2)}=1.41 m/s^2$
