Net Force = 600 N
Kinetic Energy = 600 J
(Work done) >> KE since there is no mention of frictional forces

Suppose a baseball pitcher throws the ball to his catcher.
amm1812

a) Same

b) Same

c) Same

d) Throw the ball takes longer

e) F is larger when the ball is catched

Explanation:

a)

The change in speed of an object is given by:

\Delta v = |v-u|

where

u is the initial velocity of the object

v is the final velocity of the object

The change in speed is basically the magnitude of the change in velocity (because velocity is a vector, while speed is a scalar, so it has no direction).

In this problem:

- In situation 1 (pitcher throwing the ball), the initial velocity is

u = 0 (because the ball starts from rest)

while the final velocity is v, so the change in speed is

\Delta v=|v-0|=|v|

- In situation 2 (catcher receiving the ball), the initial velocity is now

u = v

while the final velocity is now zero (ball coming to rest), so the change in speed is

\Delta v =|0-v|=|-v|

Which means that the two situations have same change in speed.

b)

The change in momentum of an object is given by

\Delta p = m \Delta v

where

m is the mass of the object

\Delta v is the change in velocity

If we want to compare only the magnitude of the change in momentum of the object, then it is given by

|\Delta p|=m|\Delta v|

- In situation 1 (pitcher throwing the ball), the change in momentum is

\Delta p = m|\Delta v|=m|v|=mv

- In situation 2 (catcher receiving the ball), the change in momentum is

\Delta p = m\Delta v = m|-v|=mv

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum is the same (but the direction is opposite)

c)

The impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

I=\Delta p

where

I is the impulse

\Delta p is the change in momentum

As we saw in part b), the change in momentum of the ball in the two situations is the same, therefore the impulse exerted on the ball will also be the same, in magnitude.

However, the direction will be opposite, as the change in momentum has opposite direction in the two situations.

d)

To compare the time of impact in the two situations, we have to look closer into them.

- When the ball is thrown, the hand "moves together" with the ball, from back to ahead in order to give it the necessary push. We can verify therefore that the time is longer in this case.

- When the ball is cacthed, the hand remains more or less "at rest", it  doesn't move much, so the collision lasts much less than the previous situation.

Therefore, we can say that the time of impact is longer when the ball is thrown, compared to when it is catched.

e)

The impulse exerted on an object can also be rewritten as the product between the force applied on the object and the time of impact:

I=F\Delta t

where

I is the impulse

F is the force applied

\Delta t is the time of impact

This can be rewritten as

F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}

In this problem, in the two situations,

- I (the impulse) is the same in both situations

- \Delta t when the ball is thrown is larger than when it is catched

Therefore, since F is inversely proportional to \Delta t, this means that the force is larger when the ball is catched.

The vector values are 4.0 km due East and 3.0 km due north the resultant vector is 5.0 km long and 37 north of East this values
klemol [59]

Answer:

This values shows a right angle triangle

Explanation:

Given;

a vector 4.0 km due East

a 3.0 km due north

the resultant vector is 5.0 km

The resultant vector can be obtained by Pythagoras theorem if the vectors form a right angle triangle.

R² = 4² + 3²

R² = 16 + 9

R² = 25

R = √25

R = 5 km    (right angle triangle proved)

Therefore, this values shows a right angle triangle

5. An electrical power plant generates electricity with a current of 50 A and a potential difference of 20 000 V. In order to mi
lakkis [162]

Answer: Current = 2 A

Explanation:

Given that an electrical power plant generates electricity with a

current I = 50 A

Potential difference V = 20 000 V

The resistance R will be achieved by Ohms law formula which state that

V = IR

But the power generated will be the product of potential difference and the current

Power P = IV

P = 50 × 20000

P = 1, 000000 W

When the transformer steps up the potential difference to 500 000 V before it is transmitted

Power is always constant.

Using the formula for power again with

V = 500000

1000000 = 500000× I

Make I the subject of formula

Current I = 1000000/500000

Current I = 2 A
