A baseball with a mass of 0.15 kilograms collides with a bat at a speed of 40 meters/second. The duration of the collision is 8.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: 1687.5 N

Explanation:

From the second law of motion given by Newton, Force is the rate change of momentum.

F = \frac{dp}{dt}=\frac {m dv}{dt} = \frac{m (v_f-v_i)}{dt}

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

Initial velocity, v_i=-40 m/s (negative because direction of initial velocity is opposite to the final velocity)

Final velocity, v_f=50 m/s

The duration of collision, dt= 8.0 \times 10^{-3} s

Force, F = \frac{0.15 kg (50-(-40) m/s)}{8.0 \times 10^{-3} s}=1687.5 N

Hence, the value of force is 1687.5 N.

Electrical wire with a diameter of .5 cm is wound on a spool with a radius of 30 cm and a height of 24 cm.
kow [346]

Answer:

a)   # lap = 301.59 rad , b)   L = 90.48 m

Explanation:

a) Let's use a direct proportions rule (rule of three). If one turn of the wire covers 0.05 cm, how many turns do you need to cover 24 cm

          # turns = 1 turn (24 cm / 0.5 cm)

         # laps = 48 laps

Let's reduce to radians

        # laps = 48 laps (2 round / 1 round)

       # lap = 301.59 rad

b) Each lap gives a length equal to the length of the circle

          L₀ = 2π R

          L = # turns L₀

          L = # turns 2π R

          L = 48 2π 30

          L = 9047.79 cm

          L = 90.48 m

The charge on the sphere is monitored as a beam of monochromatic light shines on the sphere. Initially nothing happens. The wave
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

explanation of this effect  is  the photoelectric effect

Explanation:

Let's describe the process, when light of large wavelength falls, this implies a small energy, according to Planck's equation

           E = h f = \frac{h \ c}{ \lambda}

the energy of the photons is not enough to carry out an electronic transition between two states of the material, when we decrease the wavelength (the energy of the photons increases), the point is reached where the energy of the beam is equal to some energy of a transition, by which the electrons are promoted and since we can see a certain charge, as the atoms are neutral, some electrons must be removed from the material, this is represented in the macroscopic case as the work function of the material, consequently a unbalanced load that is what we can measure.

When we increase the lightning intensity, what we do is that we increase the number of photons and if each photon can remove an electron, by removing the electrons the difference between it and the positive charge (fixed in the nuclei) increases.

We can analyze the interaction of the photon and the electron as a particular collision.

The explanation of this effect was made by Einstein in his explained of the photoelectric effect
