A girl of mass 55 kg throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Given

Contact Time = t = 0.05 seconds

Mass (of ball) = 0.80kg

Initial Velocity = u = 25m/s

Final Velocity = 25m/s

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is given by;

F = ma

Where m = 0.8kg

a = Average Acceleration

a = (u + v)/t

a = (25 + 25)/0.05

a = 50/0.05

a = 1000m/s²

Average Force = Mass * Average Acceleration

Average Force = 0.8kg * 1000m/s²

Average Force = 800kgm/s²

Average Force = 800N

Hence, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Will mark brainliest!
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fa - u*m*g = m*a

Fa = u*m*g + m*a

Fa - m*a = u*m*g

u = \frac{Fa - m*a}{m*g}

A gas, behaving ideally, has a pressure P1 and at a volume V1. The pressure of the gas is changed to P2. Using Avogadro’s, Charl
Bond [772]

Answer:

Boyle's Law

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2

Explanation:

Given that:

<u><em>initially:</em></u>

pressure of gas, = P_1

volume of gas, = V_1

<em><u>finally:</u></em>

pressure of gas, = P_2

volume of gas, = V_2

<u>To solve for final volume</u> V_2

<em>According to Avogadro’s law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the no. of moles of the gas under a constant temperature and pressure.</em>

<em>According to the Charles' law, at constant pressure the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature.</em>

But here we have a change in the pressure of the Gas so we cannot apply Avogadro’s law and Charles' law.

Here nothing is said about the temperature, so we consider the Boyle's Law which states that <em>at constant temperature the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.</em>

Mathematically:

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

\Rightarrow P_1.V_1=k\ \rm(constant)

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2

AM radio signals have frequencies between 550 kHz and 1600 kHz (kilohertz) and travel with a speed of 3.0Ã108m/s. What are the w
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of these signals is as follow:

  • Wavelength of 550 kHz is 545.45 m
  • Wavelength of 1600 kHz is 187.5 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency = 550 kHz & 1600 kHz

Velocity = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

As we know that frequency is expressed by the following equation:

  • Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength ---- (1)

For 550 kHz:

The equation can be rearranged as

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (550 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 545.45 m

For 1600 kHz:

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1600 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 187.5 m
