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.

Should nuclear energy be part of sustainable energy future? explain your answer
liraira [26]

Answer:

Nuclear power is presently a sustainable energy source, but could become completely renewable if the source of uranium changed from mined ore to seawater. Since U extracted is continuously replenished through geologic processes, nuclear would become as endless as solar.

An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.4 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 27 m/s
DENIUS [597]
A) use v=u+at for both

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 11seconds.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 21seconds.
This means that the total time is 22seconds.

b) You can either use s=ut+0.5at^2 or v^2=u^2+2as. Personally, I would use the second one as you are not relying on your previous answer.

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 152m.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 280m.
This makes your overall displacement 432m.
