<h2>Option A is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

Here velocity of ball and bat are in opposite direction.

Velocity of ball = 40 m/s

Velocity of bat = 18 m/s

Since they are in opposite direction relative velocity is given by,

           Relative velocity = 40 + 18 = 58 m/s

Distance to home plate = 18 m

We have

                Displacement = Velocity x Time

                           18 = 58 x Time

                          Time = 0.3 seconds

Option A is the correct answer.

The nutritional calorie (Calorie) is equivalent to 1 kcal. One pound of body fat is equivalent to about 4.1 x 103 Calories. If a
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

t = 70.13 hours

Explanation:

As we know that 1 lb fat can be used to expend 4.1 k Calorie of energy

so here we know that we have to use 7.56 lb of body fat

so here the total energy that is to be utilized is given as

Q = (4.1 \times 10^3)(7.56)

so we will have

Q = 30996 Calorie

now we know that runner expends the energy at rate of 1850 kJ/h

so we have

E = 1850 \times 10^3 kJ/h

so it is

E = 0.44 \times 10^3 calorie/h

now we know that time to burn this energy is given as

t = \frac{Q}{E}

t = \frac{30996}{0.44 \times 10^3}

t = 70.13 hours

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at t
TEA [102]

Answer: The second force applied to the doorknob

Explanation:

The formulae for torque is simple the product of the applied force and the perpendicular distance.

The greater the perpendicular force, the greater the torque assuming a constant value of force.

Applying the force at the doorknob gives for a greater distance between the force and the turning point compared to applying the force at the midpoint of the door ( which is at a shorter distance)

The radius of a small ball is around 3.79747 cm. The radius of a basketball is about 3.16 times larger. What is the ratio of the
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Explanation:

The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.

A/A = 3.16² = 9.99

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.

V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6

1. Una bola de 0.510 kg de masa se mueve al este (dirección +x) con una rapidez de 4.80 m/s y choca frontalmente con una bola de
Grace [21]

Responder:

3,37 m / s, + ve x - dirección

Explicación:

Utilizando la ley de conservación de la cantidad de movimiento expresada por la fórmula;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2) v

m1 y m2 son las masas de los objetos

u1 y u2 son sus velocidades iniciales

v es su velocidad común

Dado

m1 = 0,519 kg

u1 = 4,80 m / s

m2 = 0,220 kg

u2 = 0 m / s (cuerpo en reposo)

Necesario

Velocidad común v

Sustituir en la fórmula los valores dados;

0,519 (4,8) + 0,22 (0) = (0,519 + 0,220) v

2,4912 + 0 = 0,739 v

2,4912 = 0,739v

Dividir ambos lados por 0,739

2,4912 / 0,739 = 0,739 / 0,739

<em>v = 3,37 m / s </em>

<em>Por lo tanto, la rapidez de ambas bolas después de la colisión es de 3.37 m.s hacia la dirección x positiva, ya que m1> m2 y la velocidad común es positiva.</em>

A negative charge is at rest at the origin of an axis system. Location x is at coordinate point (2m,3m) while location y is at (
Sergeu [11.5K]
The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.

Location ' x ' is  √(2² + 3²) = √13 m  from the charge.

Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.

The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.

The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.
