AleksAgata [21]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

2 miles

Explanation:

Jimmy walked forward 3 miles east (to the right)

Then, he backtracked and walked 1 mile west (to the left)

This can be written as:

3 - 1 = ?

3 - 1 = 2

Therefore, Jimmy traveled a total of 2 miles.

A batter hits a 0.140-kg baseball that was approaching him at 19.5 m/s and, as a result, the ball leaves the bat at 44.8 m/s in
Arada [10]

Answer:

5295.3 N

Explanation:

According to law of momentum conservation, the change in momentum of the ball shall be from the momentum generated by the batter force

mv + P = mV

P = mV - mv = m(V - v)

Since the velocity of the ball before and after is in opposite direction, one of them is negative

P = 0.14(44.8 - (-19.5)) = 9 kg m/s

Hence the force exerted to generate such momentum within 1.7ms (0.0017s) is

F = P/t = 9/0.0017 = 5295.3 N

2O POINTS!!! Easy Question. Will Mark Brainiest
wel

Answer: The Electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two charges shows that the Newton's third law applies to electrostatic forces.

Explanation: Consider two Oppositely charged charges separated by distance d.

The electrostatic force exerted by charge 1 on charge 2 is.

By Coulomb's Law :

               F1  = k \frac{Q1 Q2}{d2}.....................................(1)

The electrostatic force exerted by charge 2 on charge 1 is.

              F2  = - k \frac{Q1 Q2}{d2} ................................. (2)

negative sign shows that force are in opposite direction.

 

From Equation 1 and 2

              F1 = - F2

Which implies Newton Third law.

What is the mass of a ball that has 29j of potential energy and is lifted 2.0m?​
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

1.48kg

Explanation:

Here,

potential energy (P.E) = 29j

height (h) = 2m

acceleration due to gravity(g) =

9.8m {s}^{ - 2}

mass(m) = ?

we know,

P.E = mgh

or, 29 = m×9.8×2

or, 29/19.6 = m

or,m = 1.48kg

It is your parent's 25th Wedding Anniversary and you thought it would be special to throw them a surprise party. Your entire fam
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

120 miles per hour.

Explanation:

We need to find the time it takes my parents to drive home from the cottage. Since my father drives at 60 miles per hour, and the cottage is 240 miles from our home, and distance = speed × time. So, time = distance/speed = 240 mi/60 mi/h = 4 h.

So, it will take my father 4 hours to drive home from the cottage.

Since I have 2 hours to prepare for the party, the time left for me to drive to the cottage is 4 - 2 hrs = 2 hrs.

So, I'm supposed to drive to the cottage in at most 2 hours.

The speed at which I must drive in this time period is thus,  speed = distance/time = 240 miles/2 hours = 120 miles per hour.

So, I must drive at a minimum speed of 120 miles per hour.

Is there an eclipse happening soon in England
lyudmila [28]

A solar eclipse will be visible over a wide area of the north polar region
on Friday, March 20.

England is not in the path of totality, but it's close enough so that a large
part of the sun will be covered, and it will be a spectacular sight.

For Londoners, the eclipse begins Friday morning at 8:25 AM,when the
moon just begins to eat away at the sun's edge.  It advances slowly, as more
and more of the sun disappears, and reaches maximum at 9:31 AM.  Then
the obscured part of the sun begins to shrink, and the complete disk is
restored by the end of the eclipse at 10:41AM, after a period of 2 hours
16 minutes during which part of the sun appears to be missing.

The catch in observing the eclipse is:

                       <em><u>YOU MUST NOT LOOK AT THE SUN</u></em>.

Staring at the sun for a period of time can cause permanent damage to
your vision, even though <em><u>you don't feel it while it's happening</u></em>.

This is not a useful place to try and give you complete instructions or
suggestions for observing the sun over a period of hours.  Please look
in your local newspaper, or search online for phrases like "safe eclipse
viewing".
