A baseball with a mass of 151 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.3 m/s (90 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with

the bat for 1.15 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 46.0 m/s (103 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer:

A baseball (m= 149g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 40.2 m/s (90 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 45.6m/s (102mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.10ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat ? Neglect the weight of the ball, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.

Explanation:

Use the impulse equation (a form of Newton's 2nd Law): FΔt = Δ(mv) where Δ means "change in"

The change in momentum is mBB(vf - vi) = (.150 kg)(-46.9 m/s - 40.5 m/s)

Divide this by the time interval and you get F exerted by the bat in Newtons.

Take care.

What is the frequency of a wave having a period equal to 18 seconds <br>​
Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

The relation between wave period and frequency is as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

f

1

where, T = time period

f = frequency

It is given that wave period is 18 seconds. Therefore, calculate the wave period as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

f

1

or, f = \frac{1}{T}f=

T

1

= \frac{1}{18 sec}

18sec

1

= 0.055 per second (1cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

or, f = 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz

<h3>Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz .</h3>

What is the force per unit area at this point acting normal to the surface with unit nor- Side View √√ mal vector n = (1/ 2)ex +
Mumz [18]

Complete Question:

Given \sigma = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right] at a point. What is the force per unit area at this point acting normal to the surface with\b n = (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z   ? Are there any shear stresses acting on this surface?

Answer:

Force per unit area, \sigma_n = 28 MPa

There are shear stresses acting on the surface since \tau \neq 0

Explanation:

\sigma = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right]

equation of the normal, \b n = (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z

\b n = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\end{array}\right]

Traction vector on n, T_n = \sigma \b n

T_n =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}10&12&13\\12&11&15\\13&15&20\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }\end{array}\right]

T_n = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} }\\0\\\frac{27}{\sqrt{33} }\end{array}\right]

T_n = \frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z

To get the Force per unit area acting normal to the surface, find the dot product of the traction vector and the normal.

\sigma_n = T_n . \b n

\sigma \b n = (\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z) . ((1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + 0 \b  e_y +(1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z)\\\\\sigma \b n = 28 MPa

If the shear stress, \tau, is calculated and it is not equal to zero, this means there are shear stresses.

\tau = T_n  - \sigma_n \b n

\tau =  [\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z] - 28( (1/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (1/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z)\\\\\tau =  [\frac{23}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{33}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z] - [ (28/ \sqrt{2} ) \b e_x + (28/ \sqrt{2}) \b e_z]\\\\\tau =  \frac{-5}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_x + \frac{27}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_y + \frac{5}{\sqrt{2} } \b e_z

\tau = \sqrt{(-5/\sqrt{2})^2  + (27/\sqrt{2})^2 + (5/\sqrt{2})^2} \\\\ \tau = 19.74 MPa

Since \tau \neq 0, there are shear stresses acting on the surface.

If the acceleration of motorboat is 4m/s^2 and the motorboat stsrtsfrol.Rest what is velocity after 6.0 s
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

24 m/s

Explanation:

Using v = u + at where u = initial velocity of the motorboat = 0 m/s (since the boat starts from rest), a = acceleration = 4 m/s², t = time = 6 s and v = velocity of the motorboat after 6.0 s.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

v = u + at

= 0 m/s + 4 m/s² × 6.0 s

= 0 m/s + 24 m/s

= 24 m/s
