A baseball rolls off of a .7 m high desk and strikes the floor .25 m always how fast was the ball rolling

Physics

4 0

Answer:

the ball's velocity was approximately 0.66 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that we can study the motion of the baseball rolling off the table in vertical component and horizontal component separately.

Since the velocity at which the ball was rolling is entirely in the horizontal direction, it doesn't affect the vertical motion that can therefore be studied as a free fall, where only the constant acceleration of gravity is affecting the vertical movement.

Then, considering that the ball, as it falls covers a vertical distance of 0.7 meters to the ground, we can set the equation of motion for this, and estimate the time the ball was in the air:

0.7 = (1/2) g t^2

solve for t:

t^2 = 1.4 / g

t = 0.3779  sec

which we can round to about 0.38 seconds

No we use this time in the horizontal motion, which is only determined by the ball's initial velocity (vi) as it takes off:

horizontal distance covered = vi * t

0.25 = vi * (0.38)

solve for vi:

vi = 0.25/0.38  m/s

vi = 0.65798  m/s

Then the ball's velocity was approximately 0.66 m/s

A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 30.0 min
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Average speed of the trip = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial pairs of cities (start to end) = 70.0 km

Explanation:

Since distance = speed × time

If she drives 30.0 min at 80.0 km/h

Distance covered = (30/60) × 80 = 40.0 km

Again she drives 45.0 min at 40 km/h

Distance covered = (45/60) × 40 = 30.0 km

Again she drives 12.0 min at 100 km/h

Distance covered = (12/60) × 100 = 20.0 km

Total distance covered =  40.0 + 30.0 + 20.0

                                       = 90.0 km

Total time spent = 30.0 + 45.0 + 12.0 +15.0

                           = 102 min

Average speed for the trip = Total distance covered/total time spent

                                             = 90/(102/60)

                                             = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial cities will be between the start of one city to the end of another

Between the first pairs = 40.0 + 30.0 = 70.0 km

Between the second pairs = 30.0 + 20.0 = 50.0 km

A group of particles is traveling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of proton  v = 1.5 x 10³ i  m /s

charge on proton e = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Let the magnetic field be B = Bx i + Bz k

force on charged particle ( proton )

F = e ( v x B )

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ j = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ 1.5 x 10³ i x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ j = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.5 x 10³  Bz j) ]

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.5 x 10³  Bz

Bz = -  .8583  

force on charged particle ( electron )

F = e ( v x B )

8.40  x10⁻¹⁶ j = -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ - 4.4 x 10³ k  x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

8.4  x10⁻¹⁶ j =  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4.4 x 10³  Bx j ]

- 8.4  x10⁻¹⁶ =  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4.4 x 10³  Bx

Bx =  - 1.19

Magnetic field = - 1.19 i - .8583 k

magnitude = √ (1.19² + .8583²)

= 1.467 T

If it is making angle θ with x - axis in x -z plane

Tanθ = (.8583 / 1.19 )

36⁰ .

C )

v = - 3.7 x 10³j m /s

e = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁶ C

Force = F = e ( v x B )

= -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ -3.7 x 10³ j  x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

=  - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 3.7 x 10³  Bx  k -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 3.7 x 10³Bzi ]

=    5.08 i - 7.04 k

Tanθ = 54 ° .

katrin [286]

We can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant volume and number of moles of the gas the ratio of T and P is equal to some constant. At another set of condition, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1/P1 = T2/P2

P2 = T2 x P1 / T1

P2 = 273 x 340 / 713
