Andre45 [30]

Average acceleration of the baseball: -101 m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the motion of the baseball is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement of the object

For the baseball in this problem, we have:

u = 2.2 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity (it comes to a stop)

s = 24 mm = 0.024 m is the displacement of the ball while decelerating

Therefore, we can solve for a to find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-2.2^2}{2(0.024)}=-101 m/s^2

where the negative sign means the baseball is slowing down.

If a 4N weight is hung on a spring, and it extends by 0.2m, what is the spring constant (k)?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: 200 N/m

Explanation:

The Gravitational spring energy(Us) is equal to 1/2kx^2. So we have x as .2 m and Us as 4 N. So 4 N = 1/2 * k * .2^2. So now we solve for K and get 200 N/m.

What is the Kinetic Energy of a tennis ball after 40.0cm of freefall?
OlgaM077 [116]
The kinetic energy is the same as the potential energy of raising it 40cm (0.4m). That's mgh where m is mass of ball. Its then 3.924*m, whatever m is equal to in kg.
