Before the impact, let the velocity of the baseball was v m/s.
After being hit by the bat its velocity is -2v
So, change in velocity, Deltav=v-(-2v)=3v
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity, i.e. actual change in velocity divided by the time taken to change it. Time taken to change velocity is the time of actual contact of the bat and ball, i.e. 0.31 s.
a=(Deltav)/(Deltat)
=(3v)/0.37
Therefore, a/v=3/0.31=9.7 s^-1
So, the ratio of acceleration of the baseball to its original velocity is 9.7.
Answer:
2.5 x 10^{5} J
Explanation:
weight = 5,000 N
coefficient of friction = 0.05
distance = 1000 m
how much work is done by the dogs pulling the sledge
work done = force x coefficient of friction x distance
work done = 5000 x 0.05 x 1000 = 2.5 x 10^{5} J
The current passing through a circuit consisting of a battery of 12 V and resistor of 2 ohms is 6 Ampere
.
Explanation:
- Assume the wires are ideal with zero resistance.
- The current passing through the circuit will be
I = V/R = 12/2 = 6.000 A.
