If the pitched ball was traveling 77 mph before stanton's bat hit it and 120 mph after his bat hit it, by what amount did the sp

eed of stanton's bat decrease due to the collision? (give your response as a positive value in units of miles per hour. assume that the bat and ball are moving in a single dimension. a baseball has a weight of 5 ounces and the bat stanton uses has a weight of 32 ounces.)

here we will use the concept of Newton's III law

as per Newton's III law the impulse given to the ball is same as the impulse lost by the bat

So here we will say

impulse gain by the ball = impulse lost by the bat

m_1(v_f - v_i) = m_2(\Delta v)

given that

m_1 = 5 ounce

m_2 = 32 ounce

For ball the change in speed will be

v_f - v_i = (120 - 77)mph

now from above equation

5\times (120 - 77) = 32 \times \Delta v

\Delta v = 6.72 mph

so speed of bat will decrease by 6.72 mph

A laser produces light at 5.32x10-7 m.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

speed = frequency x wavelength

speed of light in vacuum is 3.0 x 10^8

wavelength = 5.32 x10 ^-7

3.0 x 10 ^ 8 = 5.32 x 10^-7 x frequency

frequency = 5.63909 x 10^14

round it off = 5.64 x 10^14 Hz

thus the answer is D

Where is the distance on a position time graph
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The distance represents the difference of the first position and last position of the body.

Explanation:

For example, if y axis represents the position axis, and the first position is 3, second 9 we can see that the distance is a (positive) projection of one position into another. 9-3=6

Hope this helps.

A massive tractor rolls down a country road. in a perfectly inelastic collision, a small sports car runs into the machine from b
Helga [31]
The answer for this change in the magnitude of momentum is the same for both because momentum is always conserved so both vehicles have the identical change. 
So for determining who has the greater change in kinetic energy, momentum (P) = mv so P^2 = m^2 v^2 P^2 / 2m = 1/2 m v^2 = energy So the weightier the mass the smaller the energy change for the same momentum change so in here, the car has a greater change in kinetic energy.

A house that was heated by electric resistance heaters consumed 1200 kWh of electric energy in a winter month. If this house wer
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

$84

Explanation:

The coefficient of performance (COP) show the relationship between the power (kW) output of the heat pump and the power (kW) input to the compressor.

The heater consumed by the heater is 1200 kWh.

For a heat pump with a COP of 2.4, the electric input needed to produce an output of 1200 kWh is:

Electric input to heat pump = 1200 / 2.4 = 500 kWh

That means that supplying a heat pump with 500 kWh produces an output of 1200 kWh

The amount of power saved = power consumed by heater - power consumed by heat pump = 1200 - 500 = 700 kWh

Money saved = $0.12/kWh * 700 kWh = $84
