You push really hard against a round rock, but you cannot make it roll. Which statement best explains why you cannot move the ro

Answer:

b

Explanation:

a Gravity pulls the rock toward the center of Earth.

b The forces between you and the rock are balanced.

c The force of your push is greater than the opposing force.

d There is no friction to help you move the object.

The correct answer would be that <u>the forces between you and the rock are balanced.</u>

<em>In order to get the rock rolling, both the frictional force between the rock and the surface on which it stands as well as the gravitational force acting on its mass must be exceeded. If the applied force balances these forces or falls short, the rock will not move.</em>

The correct option is b.

The temperature and pressure at the surface of Mars during a Martian spring day were determined to be -50 °C and 900 Pa, respect
Sidana [21]

Answer:

T = 273 + (-50) = 273 – 50 = 223 K

R = 188.82 J / kg K for CO2

Density (Martian Atmosphere) = P / RT = 900 / 188.92 x 223 = 900 / 42129.16 = 0.0213 kg / m^{3}

T = 273 +18 = 291 K, R = 287 J / kg k (for air) P = 101.6 k Pa = 101600 Pa

Density (Earth Atmosphere) = P / RT = 101600 / 287 x 291 = 1.216 kg / m^{3}

A baseball player hits a homerun, and the ball lands in the left field seats, which is 103m away from the point at which the bal
Sati [7]

(a) The ball has a final velocity vector

\mathbf v_f=v_{x,f}\,\mathbf i+v_{y,f}\,\mathbf j

with horizontal and vertical components, respectively,

v_{x,f}=\left(20.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos(-38^\circ)\approx16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

v_{y,f}=\left(20.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin(-38^\circ)\approx-12.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

The horizontal component of the ball's velocity is constant throughout its trajectory, so v_{x,i}=v_{x,f}, and the horizontal distance <em>x</em> that it covers after time <em>t</em> is

x=v_{x,i}t=v_{x,f}t

It lands 103 m away from where it's hit, so we can determine the time it it spends in the air:

103\,\mathrm m=\left(16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\implies t\approx6.38\,\mathrm s

The vertical component of the ball's velocity at time <em>t</em> is

v_{y,f}=v_{y,i}-gt

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Solve for the vertical component of the initial velocity:

-12.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=v_{y,i}-\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)\implies v_{y,i}\approx49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

So, the initial velocity vector is

\mathbf v_i=v_{x,i}\,\mathbf i+v_{y,i}\,\mathbf j=\left(16.2\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf j

which carries an initial speed of

\|\mathbf v_i\|=\sqrt{{v_{x,i}}^2+{v_{y,i}}^2}\approx\boxed{52.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}

and direction <em>θ</em> such that

\tan\theta=\dfrac{v_{y,i}}{v_{x,i}}\implies\theta\approx\boxed{72.0^\circ}

(b) I assume you're supposed to find the height of the ball when it lands in the seats. The ball's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is

y=v_{y,i}t-\dfrac12gt^2

so that when it lands in the seats at <em>t</em> ≈ 6.38 s, it has a height of

y=\left(49.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)-\dfrac12\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.38\,\mathrm s)^2\approx\boxed{119\,\mathrm m}
