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

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

v = 0

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by taking into account:

- The equation for the calculation of the period in a spring-masss system

T = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }     ( 1 )

- The equation for the velocity of a simple harmonic motion

x = \frac{2\pi }{T}Asin(\frac{2\pi }{T}t)   ( 2 )

where m is the mass of the block, k is the spring constant, A is the amplitude (in this case A = 14 cm) and v is the velocity of the block

Hence

T = \sqrt{\frac{2 kg}{50 N/m}} = 0.2 s

and by reeplacing it in ( 2 ):

v = \frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(14cm)sin(\frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(0.9s)) = 140\pi  sin(9\pi ) = 0

In this case for 0.9 s the velocity is zero, that is, the block is in a position with the max displacement from the equilibrium.

What is a cost of urbanization
maw [93]
Urbanization often requires extensive ecological change and many times destruction and displacement to occur. This can have a negative impact on the environment, and the animals within ecosystems undergoing urbanization.

Determine the gain in the potential energy when a 8.0 kg box is raised 17.2 m.
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 1376 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 8 × 10 × 17.2

We have the final answer as

<h3>1376 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
