A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.89 m above the ground at an angle of 62 ∘ with an initial speed of 29 m/s headin
KatRina [158]

consider the motion in Y-direction

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Sin62 = 25.6 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel

Y = vertical displacement = - 0.89 m

using the equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

- 0.89 = (25.6) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 5.3 sec


consider the motion along the horizontal direction :

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Cos62 = 13.6 m/s

a = acceleration = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 5.3 sec

X = horizontal displacement =?

using the equation

X = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

X = (13.6) (5.3) + (0.5) (0) t²

X = 72.1 m


d = distance traveled by the center fielder to catch the ball = 107 - x = 107 - 72.1 = 34.9 m

t = time taken = 5.3 sec

v = speed of center fielder

using the equation

v = d/t

v = 34.9/5.3

v = 6.6 m/s

Recently, astronomers have observed stars and other objects that orbit the center of the Milky Way Galaxy farther out than our S
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

That scenario can be explained by the idea of the contribution of dark matter on that point.

Explanation:

It can be explained through the idea of dark matter, this one was born to explain why stars (or any object) that were farther for the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy didn't decrease it rotational velocity as it was expected according to equation 1.

v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}}  (1)

Where v is the rotational velocity, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the supermassive black hole, and r is the orbital radius.

Notice, that If the distance increases the orbital speed decreases (inversely proportional).

. While a person lifts a book of mass 2 kg from the floor to a tabletop, 1.5 m above the floor, how much work does the the perso
viktelen [127]

Answer:

a) 29.4 J

b) - 29.4 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the book, m = 2 kg

Height above the floor, h = 1.5 m

Now,

the work done by the person will be = Force applied on the book × displacement of the book

thus,

Work done by the person = mg × h

where, g is the acceleration due to gravity

thus, on substituting the values, we get

Work done by the person = 2 × 9.8 × 1.5 = 29.4 J

now,

for the force applied by the gravitational pull (downwards) the displacement is in opposite direction (upwards) to the force of the gravity.

Thus,

work done by the gravity will be negative

therefore, the work done by the gravity = - mg × h

or

work done by the gravity = - 29.4 J

Two separate disks are connected by a belt traveling at 5m/s. Disk 1 has a mass of 10kg and radius of 35cm. Disk 2 has a mass of
pantera1 [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Linear speed of both disks is 5 m/s

Mass of disk 1 is 10 kg

Radius of disk 1 is 35 cm or 0.35 m

Mass of disk 2 is 3 kg

Radius of disk 2 is 7 cm or 0.07 m

(a) The angular velocity of disk 1 is :

v=r_1\omega_1\\\\\omega_1=\dfrac{v}{r_1}\\\\\omega_1=\dfrac{5}{0.35}\\\\\omega_1=14.28\ rad/s

(b) The angular velocity of disk 2 is :

v=r_2\omega_2\\\\\omega_2=\dfrac{v}{r_2}\\\\\omega_2=\dfrac{5}{0.07}\\\\\omega_2=71.42\ rad/s

(c) The moment of inertia for the two disk system is given by :

I=I_1+I_2\\\\I=\dfrac{1}{2}m_1r_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_2r_2^2\\\\I=\dfrac{1}{2}(m_1r_1^2+m_2r_2^2)\\\\I=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (10\times (0.35)^2+3\times (0.07)^2)\\\\I=0.619\ kg-m^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

The two particles are both moving to the right. Particle 1 catches up with particle 2 and collides with it. The particles stick
Travka [436]

Answer:

c. vf is greator than v2, but less than v1

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that when two or more bodies act upon one another, their total momentum remains constant.

In a system of colliding bodies the total momentum of the system just before the collision is the same as the total momentum just after the collision.  

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is conserved are called elastic collision.

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is not conserved are called inelastic collisions.  If the two objects stick together after the collision and move with a common velocity, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic.

<em>The above scenario is a perfectly inelastic collision. The initial velocity of particle 1 was greater than particle 2 before collision. After collision, its velocity will reduce to a final velocity vf as it transfers some of its kinetic energy to particle 2; whereas, the velocity of particle 2 will increase to a final velocity vf as it absorbs some of the kinetic energy of particle 1.</em>

Therefore,

a. vf = v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

b. vf is less than v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

c. vf is greater than v2, but less than v1 is correct.

d. vf = v1 is wrong because vf is less than v1
