A batter hits a pop-up straight up over home plate at an initial velocity of 21 m/s. the ball is caught by the catcher at the sa

me height that it was hit. at what velocity does the ball land in the catcher's mitt? neglect air resistance. (take the positive direction to be upwards.)

<span>The ball rises, converting the initial Kinetic Energy (KE) into Potential Energy (PE), until it comes to rest at a given height, at which point all of the KE has been converted to PE. At that point, it begins to accelerate back downward, until it reaches the catcher's mitt, at the same KE with which it was initially hit. So overall no change in energy as there is no difference in height so the speed should be same but as positive direction is taken to be upwards and ball is now going down the speed will be -21m/s</span>

Our intial velocity is -21 m/s

 

The computation for this problem would be:

vf² = vi² + 2ad 

vf = +/- sqrt[vi² + 2ad] 

since d = 0, 

vf = +/- sqrt[vi²] 

vf = +/- vi 

vf = -vi, from the time when the final velocity must be in the opposite direction of the initial velocity, the answer would be:

vf = - 21 m/s

Singly charged uranium-238 ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 2.90 kV and enter a uniform magnetic field of
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 0.091 m

Explanation:

r = 1/B * √(2mV/e), where

r = radius of their circular path

B = magnitude of magnetic field = 1.29 T

m = mass of Uranium -238 ion = 238 * amu = 238 * 1.6*10^-27 kg

V = potential difference = 2.9 kV

e = charge of the Uranium -238 ion = 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 1/1.29 * √[(2 * 238 * 1.6*10^-27 * 2900) / 1.6*10^-19]

r = 1/1.29 * √(2.21*10^-21 / 1.6*10^-19)

r = 1/1.29 * √0.0138

r = 1/1.29 * 0.117

r = 0.091 m

Therefore, the radius of their circular path is 0.091 m

Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 571nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern on
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength,\lambda=571 nm=571\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

R=75 cm=\frac{75}{100}=0.75 m

1 m=100 cm

d=0.640 mm=0.64\times 10^{-3} m

1 mm=10^{-3} m

a=0.434 mm=0.434\times 10^{-3} m

y=0.830 mm=0.830\times 10^{-3} m

I_0=5.00\times 10^{-4}W/m^2

tan\theta=\frac{y}{R}

\theta=\frac{0.830\times 10^{-3}}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}

\theta=1.1\times 10^{-3}rad

tan\theta\approx \theta

Because \theta is small.

\phi=\frac{2\pi dsin\theta}{\lambda}

\sin\theta\approx \theta,

Therefore

\phi=\frac{2\times\pi\times 0.64\times 10^{-3}\times 1.1\times 10^{-3}}{571\times 10^{-9}}

\phi=7.74 rad

\beta=\frac{2\pi a\theta}{\lambda}

\beta=5.3 rad

I=I_0cos^2(\frac{\phi}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{\beta}{2}}{\frac{\beta}{2}})^2

I=5\times 10^{-4}cos^2(\frac{7.74}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{5.3}{2}}{\frac{5.3}{2}})^2

I=8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2

A small block with a mass of 0.0600 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Figur
pogonyaev

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that mass of block=0.0600 kg

Initial speed of block=0.63 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=0.47 m

Final speed=3.29 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=9\times 10^{-2}m

a.We have to find the tension in the cord in the original situation when the block has speed =v_0=0.63 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Because tension is equal to centripetal force

Substitute the values

T=\frac{0.06\times (0.63)^2}{0.47}=0.05 N

b.v=3.29 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{0.06\times (3.29)^2}{0.09}=7.2 N

c.Work don=Final K.E-Initial K.E

W=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-v^2_0)

W=\frac{1}{2}(0.06)((3.29)^2-(0.63)^2)

W=0.31 J
