<h3>Answer: True </h3>

As the object falls down, it pushes air aside, and the air pushes back (newton's 3rd law) so the air slows down the object a very tiny amount. This causes friction. The friction produces some heat as well.

A baseball with a mass of 151 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.3 m/s (90 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with
Ghella [55]

Answer:

A baseball (m= 149g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 40.2 m/s (90 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 45.6m/s (102mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.10ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat ? Neglect the weight of the ball, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.

Explanation:

Use the impulse equation (a form of Newton's 2nd Law): FΔt = Δ(mv) where Δ means "change in"

The change in momentum is mBB(vf - vi) = (.150 kg)(-46.9 m/s - 40.5 m/s)

Divide this by the time interval and you get F exerted by the bat in Newtons.

Take care.

A strong lightning bolt transfers an electric charge of about 31 C to Earth (or vice versa). How many electrons are transferred?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g

n_e=1.935\times 10^{20} is the no. of electrons

Explanation:

Given:

  • quantity of charge transferred, Q=31\ C

<u>No. of electrons in the given amount of charge:</u>

As we have charge on one electron 1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C

so,

n_e=\frac{Q}{e}

n_e=\frac{31}{1.602\times 10^{-19}}

n_e=1.935\times 10^{20} is the no. of electrons

  • Now if each water molecules donates one electron:

Then we require n=1.935\times 10^{20} molecules.

<u>Now the no. of moles in this many molecules:</u>

n_m=\frac{n}{N_A}

where

N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} Avogadro No.

n_m=\frac{1.935\times 10^{20}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}

n_m=3.213\times 10^{-4}\ moles

  • We have molecular mass of water as M=18 g/mol.

<u>So, the mass of water in the obtained moles:</u>

n_m=\frac{m}{M}

where:

m = mass in gram

3.213\times 10^{-4}=\frac{m}{18}

m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g

8-30-2018 what phase change occurs as the substance at 0 degree c has its pressure dropped from 0.50 at to 0.25 atm
madam [21]

Answer:

at T = 0ºC the change of state is from the solid state to the gaseous state

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked about the changes of state, from the data we will assume that the material is water.

Water can exist in three solid states, liquid and gas, in a graph of pressure ℗ against temperature (T) there is a point called triple at T = 0.01ºC, below this point the curve has two states at high pressure solid and low pressure gas.

As a result of the previous ones at T = 0ºC the change of state is from the solid state to the gaseous state
