Answer:

A. & B. Heat energy is needed to convert solid into a liquid because heat energy increases the kinetic energy of the particles. The heat energy that it used to change 1 kg of solid into liquid at atmospheric pressure and at its melting point is called the latent heat of fusion.

A baseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. A catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. Find the magnit
Sidana [21]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

v_0 = Initial velocity

y_0 = initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

v = \frac{x}{t}

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

t = \frac{18.6}{34}

t = 0.547s

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2+0+0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

y = \frac{1}{2} 9.8*0.547^2

y = 1.46m

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

At this radius, what is the magnitude of the net force that maintains circular motion exerted on the pilot by the seat belts, th
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Fc=5253 N

Explanation:

Answer:

Fc=5253 N

Explanation:

sequel to the question given, this question would have taken precedence:

"The 86.0 kg pilot does not want the centripetal acceleration to exceed 6.23 times free-fall acceleration. a) Find the minimum radius of the plane’s path. Answer in units of m."

so we derive centripetal acceleration first

ac (centripetal acceleration) = v^2/r

make r the subject of the equation

r= v^2/ac

 ac is 6.23*g which is 9.81

v is 101m/s

substituing the parameters into the equation, to get the radius

(101^2)/(6.23*9.81) = 167m

Now for part

( b) there are two forces namely, the centripetal and the weight of the pilot, but the seat is exerting the same force back due to newtons third law.

he net force that maintains circular motion exerted on the pilot by the seat belts, the friction against the seat, and so forth is the centripetal force.

Fc (Centripetal Force) = m*v^2/r  

So (86kg* 101^2)/(167) =

Fc=5253 N

A 40kg load is raised to a height of 25m. If the operation requires 1 min, find the power required​
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

163.33 Watts

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 40 Kg

Height (h) = 25 m

Time (t) = 1 min

Power (P) =..?

Next, we shall determine the energy. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 40 Kg

Height (h) = 25 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

E = mgh

E = 40 × 9.8 × 255

E = 9800 J

Finally, we shall determine the power. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 1 min = 60 s

Energy (E) = 9800 J

Power (P) =?

P = E/t

P = 9800 / 60

P = 163.33 Watts

Thus, the power required is 163.33 Watts
