Complete question is;

A baseball bat is a lever. Which of the following explains how a baseball bat differs from a lever like a pry bar?

A) In a baseball bat, effort force is smaller and is applied over a large distance, while the resistance force is smaller and is applied over a long distance.

B) In a baseball bat, effort force is smaller and is applied over a large distance, while the resistance force is smaller and is applied over a short distance.

C) In a baseball bat, effort force is larger and is applied over a short distance, while the resistance force is smaller and is applied over a long distance.

D) In a baseball bat, effort force is larger and is applied over a short distance, while the resistance force is smaller and is applied over a short distance.

Answer:

C) In a baseball bat, effort force is larger and is applied over a short distance, while the resistance force is smaller and is applied over a long distance.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C. This is because unlike in a pry bar, the effort force when swinging a baseball bat is larger and it is applied over a short distance; and in return the resisting force is smaller and it's applied over a long distance.

Through which type of media do mechanical waves, such as sound, move the fastest?

monitta

Mechanical waves travel the fastest in solids and liquids because the molecules are more closely packed together than gases, so energy is transferred from one particle to another particle faster<span>.</span>

I need to find the current resistance and voltage for each in this complicated circuit plz help

konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

The 11Ω, 22Ω, and 33Ω resistors are in parallel. That combination is in series with the 4Ω and 10Ω resistors.

The net resistance is:

R = 4Ω + 10Ω + 1/(1/11Ω + 1/22Ω + 1/33Ω)

R = 20Ω

Using Ohm's law, we can find the current going through the 4Ω and 10Ω resistors:

V = IR

120 V = I (20Ω)

I = 6 A

So the voltage drops are:

V = (4Ω) (6A) = 24 V

V = (10Ω) (6A) = 60 V

That means the voltage drop across the 11Ω, 22Ω, and 33Ω resistors is:

V = 120 V − 24 V − 60 V

V = 36 V

So the currents are:

I = 36 V / 11 Ω = 3.27 A

I = 36 V / 22 Ω = 1.64 A

I = 36 V / 33 Ω = 1.09 A

If we wanted to, we could also show this using Kirchhoff's laws.

What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 8.00 cm apart and have equal charges of −25.0 nc? g?

Daniel [21]

To calculate the force between two negative charges, we use the formula which is given by the Coulomb`s Law as

$F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here, $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are the charges on the pith balls, r is the separation between the charges and k is constant and its value is $8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2$ .

Given $q_{1} =q_{2} =-25 nC=-25\times 10^{-9}C$ and $r=8 cm=8\times10^{-2} m$ .

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$F= 8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\frac{(-25\times 10^{-9}C)(-25\times 10^{-9}C)}{(8\times10^{-2} m)^2} \\\\\ F= 877929.7\times 10^{-9} N\\\\F=8.8\times10^{-4}N$

Thus, the repulsive force between two pith balls is $8.8\times10^{-4}N$ .
