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.

Answer:

The the analysis for the free fall part should be done under the constant acceleration.

Explanation:

In the given problem, the jumper is falling under the free fall. Since, no external force is acting on the body therefore, the fall will be under the action gravity only. also, the acceleration due to gravity is always constant.

Therefore, the the analysis for the free fall part should be done under the constant acceleration.

an empty density bottle weighed 23.5 and 48.4g when filled with water .The empty bottle was partially filled with sand until and

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Density of Sand is $2.653g/cm^{3}$ .

Explanation:

Given Empty Density bottle weighs 23.5gm(W=23.5gm)

Weight of bottle when completely filled water=48.4gm

So amount of water required to fill the bottle=Weight of bottle filled with water-W

Amount of water required to fill the bottle( $w_{max}$ )=48.4gm-23.5gm

$w_{max}=24.9$ g

Since we know density of water $d_{w} =1g/cm^{3}$ and $w_{max}$

We can calculate volume of empty space in the bottle(V).

$w_{max}=d_{w}$ $\times$ V

V= $\frac{w_{max} }{d_{w} }$

V= $\frac{24.9}{1}$

V=24.9 $g/cm^{3}$

Now bottle is partially filled with sand,and weight of bottle is ( $w_{s}$ )36.5gm

So,

Amount of sand added ( $m_{s}$ )=36.5-Weight of the bottle

$m_{s}$ =13g

After filling the bottle with water again,the weight of the bottle becomes ( $W_{2}$ =56.5g)

Therefore,

amount of water added to the bottle of sand in grams = $W_{2}$ -36.5gm

amount of water added =56.5g-36.5g

amount of water added =20g

As the density of water = 1g/ $cm^{3}$

Amount of water (in grams )=Volume of water occupied

20=volume of water added

Therfore volume of water added to the sand filled bottle( $V_{w}$ )=20 $cm^{3}$

As we know the total volume of the water bottle(V),

Volume of the sand occupied in the water bottle=V- $V_{w}$

$V_{s}$ =24.9g-20g

$V_{s}$ =4.9g

We know,

Density=Mass/Volume

Therefore,

density of sand = $\frac{m_{s} }{V_{s} }$

density of sand = $\frac{13}{4.9}$

density of sand = $2.653g/cm^{3}$
