A baseball player standing on a platform throws a baseball out over a level playing field. The ball is released from a point 3.5

0 m above the field with an initial speed of 14.3 m/s at an upward angle of 27.0 degrees above the horizontal. What horizontal distance will the ball travel before hitting the ground?

Answer:

22.1 m

Explanation:

v_{o} = initial speed of ball = 14.3 m/s

\theta = Angle of launch = 27°

Consider the motion of the ball  along the vertical direction.

v_{oy} = initial speed of ball = v_{o} Sin\theta = 14.3 Sin27 = 6.5 ms^{-1}

a_{y} = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 ms⁻²

t  = time of travel

y  = vertical displacement = - 3.50 m

Using the kinematics equation that suits the above list of data, we have

y = v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t^{2} \\- 3.50 = (6.5) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t^{2}\\- 3.50 = (6.5) t - 4.9 t^{2}\\t = 1.74 s

Consider the motion of the ball along the horizontal direction.

v_{ox} = initial speed of ball = v_{o} Cos\theta = 14.3 Cos27 = 12.7 ms^{-1}

X  = Horizontal distance traveled

t  = time taken = 1.74 s

Since there is no acceleration along the horizontal direction, we have

X = v_{ox} t\\X = (12.7)(1.74)\\X = 22.1 m

<span>The correct option is D. Soil can best be described as the loose covering of weathered rocks and decaying organic matter. There are different types of soil, the type of soil formed depends majorly on the type of parent rock from which the soil is formed and the amount of organic matter present in the soil.</span>

You calculate the density of a block of aluminum to be 2.68 g/cm3. You look up the density of a block of aluminum at room temper
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Systematic errors.

Explanation:

The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.

Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.

A 0.750 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w
trapecia [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.

A) Conservation of Energy,

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv ^2 = \frac{1}{2} k A^2

Here,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

k = Spring constant

A = Amplitude

Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Replacing,

A = \sqrt{\frac{(0.750)(31*10^{-2})^2}{13}}

A = 0.0744m

(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.

The Period is defined as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

Replacing,

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.750}{13}}

T= 1.509s

Now the velocity is described as,

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-0.75A^2}

We have all the values, then replacing,

v = \frac{2\pi}{1.509}\sqrt{(0.0744)^2-(0.750(0.0744))^2}

v = 0.2049m/s

svetlana [45]

Answer:

3.7 m/s^2

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by:

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the free-fall acceleration on the planet.

Calling L the length of the pendulum, we know that:

T_e = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g_e}}=1.50 s is the period of the pendulum on Earth, and g_e = 9.8 m/s^2 is the free-fall acceleration on Earth

T_m = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g_m}}=2.45 s is the period of the pendulum on Mars, and g_m = ? is the free-fall acceleration on Mars

Dividing the two expressions we get

\frac{T_e}{T_m}=\sqrt{\frac{g_m}{g_e}}

And re-arranging it we can find the value of the free-fall acceleration on Mars:

g_m = g_e \frac{T_e^2}{T_m^2}=(9.8 m/s^2)\frac{(1.50 s)^2}{(2.45 s)^2}=3.7 m/s^2
