The velocity of the pitcher is <u>0.105 m/s</u> in a direction opposite to the velocity of the ball.
When no external force acts on a system, the total momentum of the system is conserved. The total initial momentum of the system is equal to the total final momentum of the system.
The pitcher and the ball are initially at rest, therefore, the total initial momentum of the system is zero.
Since no external forces act on the system comprising of pitcher and the ball, the total final momentum of the system is also equal to zero.
If the mass of the pitcher is mp and its speed is vp, the mass of the ball is mb and the ball's speed is vb, then the final momentum of the system of pitcher and the ball is given by,
Therefore,
Substituet 0.15 kg for mb, 50 kg for mp and 35 m/s for vb.
The pitcher has a velocity <u> 0.105 m/s</u> opposite to the direction of the velocity of the ball.
Answer:
a. 32.67 rad/s² b. 29.4 m/s²
Explanation:
a. The initial angular acceleration of the rod
Since torque τ = Iα = WL (since the weight of the rod W is the only force acting on the rod , so it gives it a torque, τ at distance L from the pivot )where I = rotational inertia of uniform rod about pivot = mL²/3 (moment of inertia about an axis through one end of the rod), α = initial angular acceleration, W = weight of rod = mg where m = mass of rod = 1.8 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and L = length of rod = 90 cm = 0.9 m.
So, Iα = WL
mL²α/3 = mgL
dividing through by mL, we have
Lα/3 = g
multiplying both sides by 3, we have
Lα = 3g
dividing both sides by L, we have
α = 3g/L
Substituting the values of the variables, we have
α = 3g/L
= 3 × 9.8 m/s²/0.9 m
= 29.4/0.9 rad/s²
= 32.67 rad/s²
b. The initial linear acceleration of the right end of the rod?
The linear acceleration at the initial point is tangential, so a = Lα = 0.9 m × 32.67 rad/s² = 29.4 m/s²
Answer:
Explanation:
Thus, total 4+4=8 C atoms are present per unit cell of diamond. Carbon has an electronic arrangement of 2,4. In diamond, each carbon shares electrons with four other carbon atoms - forming four single bonds.
Answer:
"Scientist use radioactive decay to measure the age of a rock or fossil."
Explanation:
"To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events."
