Answer:

Impulse will be 8.4788 kgm/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the ball m = 0.212 kg

Initial velocity u = 18.8 m/sec

We know that momentum P = mass×velocity

Taking initial velocity as negative

So initial momentum = 0.212×-18.8 = -3.9856 kgm/sec

Final velocity is given as v = 21.2 m/sec

So final momentum = 0.212×21.2 = 4.4944 kgm/sec

We know that impulse is given by change in momentum

So impulse = final momentum-initial momentum = 4.4944-(-3.9844 ) = 8.4788 kgm/sec

An astronaut on the moon throws a baseball upward. the astronaut is 6ft, 6 in. tall and the initial velocity of the ball is 30 f
Ainat [17]
The equation is garbled and the question is missing.

I found this equation for the same statement:

S = - 2.7t ^2 + 30t + 6.5

And one question is: after how many seconds is the ball 12 feet above the moon's surface?

Given that S is the height of the ball, you just have to replace S with 12 and solve for t.

=> 12 = - 2.7 t^2 + 30t + 6.5

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t - 6.5 + 12 = 0

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t + 5.5 = 0

Now you can use the quadratic equation fo find t:

t = { 30 +/- √ [30^2) - 4(2.7)(5.5)] } / (2*2.7)

=> t = 0.186s and t = 10.925 s

Answer: after 0.186 s the ball is at 12 feet over the surface, and again 10.925 s

What is the difference between vehicle borne and vector borne transmission?
Ugo [173]
Vehicle borne transmission is an indirect transmission of an infectious organism when the host of the organism is in contact with another potential host. Vector borne, on the other hand, happens when there is a transmitter involved causing the spread of the disease. This transmitter is called the vector.

How is the oxygen level of blood related to its color?
MAVERICK [17]
Answer:

Hemoglobin bound to oxygen absorbs blue-green light, which means that it reflects red-orange light into our eyes, appearing red. That's why blood turns bright cherry red when oxygen binds to its iron. Without oxygen connected, blood is a darker red color.

Hope this helps :)
