Lonnie pitches a baseball of mass 0.20 kg. The ball arrives at home plate with a speed of 40 m/s and is batted straight back to

suter [353]

Answer:

B) 20N.s is the correct answer

Explanation:

The formula for the impulse is given as:

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in speed

Impulse = m × ΔV

Given:

initial speed = 40m/s

Final speed = -60 m/s (Since the the ball will now move in the opposite direction after hitting the bat, the speed is negative)

mass = 0.20 kg

Thus, we have

Impulse = 0.20 × (40m/s - (-60)m/s)

Impulse = 0.20 × 100 = 20 kg-m/s or 20 N.s

Answer:

Weight needed to balance the bar is $8.5N$

Explanation:

Given the weight of the bar is $8N$

The length of the bar is $5m$

The weight of the bar will be uniformly distributed over the entire span. We will consider this as a point load acting in the middle of span length, which is at a distance of $2.5m$ from both ends.
