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

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.

____ is the thermal energy transfer that occurs from the motion of fluid in a liquid or gas.

Marysya12 [62]

The answer is C. Convection.

Radiation is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Conduction, on the other hand, is energy transfer through solid material. Condensation occurs when warm gas makes contact with a cold surface or environment, which causes a change in state from gas to liquid. These definitions rule out choices A, B, and D.

Convection is movement of particles in fluid or gas. As liquid/gas heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, moving away from the heat source. When it rises, it eventually cools down and sinks again. It is warmed up again and the cycle continues. This is why there is a circular motion when convection occurs.

A sled slides down a hill with friction between the sled and hill but negligible alr resistance. Which of the following must be

Andreyy89

Answer:

A) The sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy changes by an amount equal to the energy dissipated by friction,

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy that the object has and is defied by the work that is needed to accelerate the body.

The gravitational potential is a mechanism by which an equal amount of energy is being transferred per unit mass that is needed for the object to move from the specific location.

Hence when the sled moves down the hill with the force of gravity it has negligible resistance as an equal amount of energy is dissipated.

A physical pendulum in the form of a planar object moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 0.680 Hz. The pendulum ha

Answer:

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

$I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}$

Explanation:

The period of an oscillation equation of a solid pendulum is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}$ (1)

Where:

I is the moment of inertia
M is the mass of the pendulum
d is the distance from the center of mass to the pivot
g is the gravity

Let's solve the equation (1) for I

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}$

$I=Mgd(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}$

Before find I, we need to remember that

$T = \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.680}=1.47\: s$

Now, the moment of inertia will be:

$I=2*9.81*0.340(\frac{1.47}{2\pi})^{2}$

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

$I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}$

I hope it helps you!

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind. (a) if it takes the bird 20.0 min to travel 6.00 km relative t

enot [183]

Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s

this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it

now in part a)

if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min

so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time

$v_{avg} = \frac{6000}{20*60}$

$v_{avg} = 5m/s$

now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say

$V_{net} = v_{bird} - v_{wind}$

$5 = 9 - v_{wind}$

$v_{wind}= 4 m/s$

Part b)

now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have

$v_{net}= v_{bird} + v_{wind}$

$v_{net} = 9 + 4 = 13 m/s$

now we can find the time to go back

$time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

$time = \frac{6000}{13}$

$time = 7.7 minutes$

Part c)

Total time of round trip when wind is present

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 20 + 7.7 = 27.7 min$

now when there is no wind total time is given by

$T = \frac{6000}{9} + \frac{6000}{9}$

$T = 22.22 min$

So due to wind time will be more
