A second baseman tosses the ball to the first baseman, who catches it at the same level from which it was thrown. The throw is m

ade with an initial speed of 18.0m/s at an angle of 37.5 above the horizontal. A) What is the horizontal component of the ball's velocity just before it is caught? B) How long is the ball in the air?. . Can someone please explain to me how this works not just the answer I'm somewhat confused.

 <span>(a) 

Taking the angle of the pitch, 37.5°, and the particle's initial velocity, 18.0 ms^-1, we get: 

18.0*cos37.5 = v_x = 14.28 ms^-1, the projectile's horizontal component. 

(b) 
To much the same end do we derive the vertical component: 

18.0*sin37.5 = v_y = 10.96 ms^-1 

Which we then divide by acceleration, a_y, to derive the time till maximal displacement, 

10.96/9.8 = 1.12 s 

Finally, doubling this value should yield the particle's total time with r_y > 0 

<span>2.24 s

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

A +15 nC point charge is placed on the x axis at x = 1.5 m, and a -20 nC charge is placed on the y axis at y = -2.0m. What is th
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:E=75\ N/m

Explanation:

Given

First charge of q_1=15\ nC is placed at x=1.5\ m

Second charge  q_2=-20\ nC is placed at y=-2\ m

Electric field is given by

E=\frac{kq}{r^2}

Electric field due to q_1 is away from it

E_1=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 15\times 10^{-9}}{(1.5)^2}

E_1=60\ N/m

Electric field due to q_2

E_2=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 20\times 10^{-9}}{2^2}

E_2=45\ N/m

Net electric field will be vector addition of two

\vec{E_{net}}=\vec{E_1}+\vec{E_2}

\vec{E_{net}}=-60\hat{i}-45\hat{j}

Magnitude of Electric field is

E=\sqrt{60^2+45^2}

E=75\ N/m

A quantity of hot water at 91°C and another cold one at 12°C.
Burka [1]

Answer:

m_{cold}=567kg\\\\m_{hot}=233kg

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since equilibrium temperature problems involve the mass, specific heat and temperature change for the substances at different temperatures, we can write:

m_{cold}C_{cold}(T_{eq}-T_{cold})=-m_{hot}C_{hot}(T_{eq}-T_{hot})

Thus, since we are talking about water and they both have the same specific heat, we can write:

m_{cold}(T_{eq}-T_{cold})=-m_{hot}(T_{eq}-T_{hot})

Now, we plug in the temperatures to obtain:

m_{cold}(35-12)+m_{hot}(35-91)=0\\\\23m_{cold}-56m_{hot}=0

Next, since the total volume of water is 800 L, since it has a density of 1kg/L, we infer the total mass is 800 kg; that is why we can write a 2x2 system of simultaneous equations:

\left \{ {{23m_{cold}-56m_{hot}=0} \atop {m_{cold}+m_{hot}=800}} \right.

Thus, the masses of both cold and hot water turn out:

m_{cold}=567kg\\\\m_{hot}=233kg

Best regards!

Describe two energy conversions that take place when you warm a cup of cocoa in a microwave oven.
vampirchik [111]
1.)the microwaves are absorbed by the water molecules in the cocoa. this causes the water molecules to vibrate very fast.

2.)this fast vibration causes the molecules to heat themselves up by means of bumping into each other (friction).

A bridge is supported by two piers located 14 meters apart. Both the left and right piers provide an upward force on the bridge,
almond37 [142]

Answer:

4375 N, 7875 N

Explanation:

since the body is equilibrium

total upward force = total downward force

w weight of the bridge = FL + FR

when the car was introduced,

total downward force = total upward force

FL₁ + FR₁ = w + (m × acceleration due to gravity) with w = FL + FR

then FL₁ + FR₁  = FL + FR + Mcg

FL₁ + FR₁  - FL - FR = Mcg

ΔFL + ΔFR = 1250 × 9.8 = 12250 N

taken the left as the pivot point and using the principle of moment

ΔFR × 14 m = 12250 N × 5 m + (ΔFL × 0 m) since the left is the pivot point.

ΔFR = 61250 / 14 = 4375 N

but

ΔFL + ΔFR = 12250 N

ΔFL = 12250 - 4375 = 7875 N
