A 720 g softball is traveling at 15.0 m/s when caught. If the force of the glove on the ball is 520 N, what is the time it takes

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg

velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s

applied force, F = 520 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

$F = ma = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.72 \ \times \ 15}{520} \\\\t = 0.021 \ s \\$

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Does heat flow towards cold?

Liula [17]

Answer:

And unless people interfere, thermal energy — or heat — naturally flows in one direction only: from hot toward cold. Heat moves naturally by any of three means. The processes are known as conduction, convection and radiation. Sometimes more than one may occur at the same time.

Each of the following would cause an increase in blood pressure except __________.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

an inhibitor of angiotensin II

Explanation:

Angiotensin, specifically angiotensin II binds to many receptors in the body to affect several systems. It can normally increase blood pressure by constricting the blood vessels but with the introduction of an inhibitor, it wouldn't bring about an increase in blood pressure.
