Answer:

When you exert a force on a baseball, there exists an equal and opposite force on the ball therefore, the ball will accelerate in opposite direction.

Explanation:

When you hit a ball with baseball bat, the bat exerts a great force on the ball which causes the ball to accelerate in the opposite direction. It is to be noted that the mass of bat is much greater than mass of ball but the acceleration of ball is also greater than the acceleration of the bat so both bat and ball almost exert same magnitude of force but in opposite direction and as a result both bat and ball accelerate in opposite direction, the deciding factor is of course the relative force applied by the batter and the bowler.

Calculate the average linear momentum of a particle described by the following wavefunctions: (a) eikx, (b) cos kx, (c) e−ax2 ,
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) p=0, b) p=0, c) p= ∞

Explanation:

In quantum mechanics the moment operator is given by

              p = - i h’  d φ / dx

             h’= h / 2π

We apply this equation to the given wave functions

a)  φ = e^{ikx}

        .d φ dx = i k e^{ikx}

We replace

        p = h’ k e^{ikx}

        i i = -1

The exponential is a sine and cosine function, so its measured value is zero, so the average moment is zero

            p = 0

b) φ = cos kx

           p = h’ k sen kx

The average sine function is zero,

          p = 0

c) φ = e^{-ax^{2} }

         d φ / dx = -a 2x  e^{-ax^{2} }

         .p = i a g ’2x  e^{-ax^{2} }

       The average moment is

         p = (p₂ + p₁) / 2

         p = i a h ’(-∞ + ∞)

         p = ∞

FIGURE 2 shows a 1.5 kg block is hung by a light string which is wound around a smooth pulley of radius 20 cm. The moment of ine
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

At t = 4.2 s

Angular velocity: 6. 17 rad /s

The number of revolutions: 2.06

Explanation:

First, we consider all the forces acting on the pulley.

There is only one force acting on the pulley, and that is due to the 1.5 kg mass attached to it.

Therefore, the torque on the pulley is

\tau=Fd=mg\cdot R

where m is the mass of the block, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and R is the radius of the pulley.

Now we also know that the torque is related to angular acceleration α by

\tau=I\alpha

therefore, equating this to the above equation gives

mg\cdot R=I\alpha

solving for alpha gives

\alpha=\frac{mgR}{I}

Now putting in m = 1.5 kg, g = 9.8 m/s^2, R = 20 cm = 0.20 m, and I = 2 kg m^2 gives

\alpha=\frac{1.5\cdot9.8\cdot0.20}{2}\boxed{\alpha=1.47s^{-2}}

Now that we have the value of the angular acceleration in hand, we can use the kinematics equations for the rotational motion to find the angular velocity and the number of revolutions at t = 4.2 s.

The first kinematic equation we use is

\theta=\theta_0+\omega_0t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

since the pulley starts from rest ω0 = 0 and theta = 0; therefore, we have

\theta=\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Therefore, ar t = 4.2 s, the above gives

\theta=\frac{1}{2}(1.47)(4.2)^2

\boxed{\theta=12.97}

So how many revolutions is this?

To find out we just divide by 2 pi:

\#\text{rev}=\frac{\theta}{2\pi}=\frac{12.97}{2\pi}\boxed{\#\text{rev}=2.06}

Or about 2 revolutions.

Now to find the angular velocity at t = 4.2 s, we use another rotational kinematics equation:

\omega^2=w^2_0+2\alpha(\Delta\theta)_{}

Since the pulley starts from rest, ω0 = 0. The change in angle Δθ we calculated above is 12.97. The value of alpha we already know to be 1.47; therefore, the above becomes:

\omega^2=0+2(1.47)(12.97)w^2=38.12\boxed{\omega=6.17.}

Hence, the angular velocity at t = 4.2 w is 6. 17 rad / s

To summerise:

at t = 4.2 s

Angular velocity: 6. 17 rad /s

The number of revolutions: 2.06

Which of the following is not true about the Law of Conservation of Energy?
SVEN [57.7K]

By definition, the law of conservation of energy states that:

Ei = Ef

Where,

Ei: initial energy

Ef: final energy

Therefore, no matter the type of energy, always the final energy is equal to the final energy.

Energy can be transformed into another type of energy. For example, the potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy.

Also, energy is not created, nor destroyed.

Answer:

The following is not true about the Law of Conservation of Energy:

A. It states that the total energy in the universe keeps increasing.
