Answer:

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Velocity of the baseball at time t=0 = 38 m/s

At time t, the ball stops. This means v = 0

time before stops = 0.1s

Step 2: Calculate the acceleration

v= v0+at

with v= the velocity of the ball at time t = 0. v= 0

with v0 = the velocity of the ball at time t=0. v0 = 38 m/s

with a= the acceleration in m/s²

with t = time in seconds

0 = 38 + a*0.1

a = -380 m/s²

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's

What is the resistance of : A) A 1.70 m long copper wire that is 0.700 mm in diameter? B) A 20.0 cm long piece of carbon with a
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

(I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of copper wire = 1.70 m

Diameter = 0.700 mm

Length of carbon piece = 20.0 cm

Cross section areaA = (2.00\times10^{-3})^2\ m

(I). We need to calculate the area of copper wire

Using formula of area

A=\pi r^2

A=3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2

We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Put the value into the formula

R=\dfrac{1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.70}{3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2}

R=0.0742\ \Omega

(II). We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Put the value into the formula

R=\dfrac{3.5\times10^{-5}\times20\times10^{-2}}{(2.00\times10^{-3})^2}

R=1.75\ \Omega

Hence, (I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

Someone help please.....
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.0928km/min (4dp)

Explanation:

To find the jogger's speed in km per minute, we just need to divide the number of km jogged by the time in minutes it took to jog that distance. This will give us the distance they jogged every minute which is their speed.

4km in 32 minutes:

4/32 = 0.125km/min

2km in 22 minutes:

2/22 = 0.091 (3dp)km/min

1km in 16 minutes:

0.0625km/min

Now to find the average speed of these 3 speeds, we just add them all together and divide by how many values there are (3 values).

Average (mean)  = \frac{0.125+0.091+0.0625}{3}

Average = 0.2785/3

Average speed of jogger = 0.0928 (4dp) km/min

Hope this helped!

A flywheel with a radius of 0.300 m starts from rest and accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 0.600 rad/s2. Compu
boyakko [2]

Answer:

0.42 m/s²

Explanation:

r = radius of the flywheel = 0.300 m

w₀ = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

w = final angular speed = ?

θ = angular displacement = 60 deg = 1.05 rad

α = angular acceleration = 0.6 rad/s²

Using the equation

w² = w₀² + 2 α θ

w² = 0² + 2 (0.6) (1.05)

w = 1.12 rad/s

Tangential acceleration is given as

a_{t} = r α = (0.300) (0.6) = 0.18 m/s²

Radial acceleration is given as

a_{r} = r w² = (0.300) (1.12)² = 0.38 m/s²

Magnitude of resultant acceleration is given as

a = \sqrt{a_{t}^{2} + a_{r}^{2}}

a = \sqrt{0.18^{2} + 0.38^{2}}

a = 0.42 m/s²
