Answer:

Due to high salt in the sea water the density of the sea water is higher as compared to river water.

Sea water contains more amount of salt as compared to river/fresh water as a result it’s density increases and hence the buoyant force increases which makes it easier to swim in sea water .

A major league baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg.
galben [10]

The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg</em>
  • <em>height of fall of the ball, h = 58 m</em>

The final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

v_f ^2 = v_0^2 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 0 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 2gh\\\\v_f = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_f = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 58}\\\\v_f = 33.72 \ m/s

The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

P = mv

P = 0.145 x 33.72

P = 4.89 kg.m/s

Thus, the momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

An object is swung in a horizontal circle on a length of string that is 0.93 m long. Its acceleration is 26.36 m/s2. What is the
Igoryamba

Answer:

The object takes approximately 1.180 seconds to complete one horizontal circle.  

Explanation:

From statement we know that the object is experimenting an Uniform Circular Motion, in which acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, is entirely centripetal and is expressed as:

a = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot R}{T^{2}} (1)

Where:

T - Period of rotation, measured in seconds.

R - Radius of rotation, measured in meters.

If we know that a = 26.36\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and R = 0.93\,m, then the time taken by the object to complete one revolution is:

T^{2} = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot R}{a}

T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{R}{a} }

T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.93\,m}{26.36\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } }

T \approx 1.180\,s

The object takes approximately 1.180 seconds to complete one horizontal circle.

Some life forms move so slowly that their movement cannot be detected by normal observation. The best way to determine any movem
romanna [79]
Not sure the precise concept of "normal observation", but I assume that is observed by "eyes".

Eye observation is basically macroscopic, but when you use a mark, which can be regarded as a point of mass, then it goes to microscopic.

Mark is a reference point which you can compare the relative position change, but with your eyes, first you cannot notice microscopic changes, second the eyes cannot precisely set a stable reference point.

A spring with force constant of 59 N/m is compressed by 1.3 cm in a hockey game machine. The compressed spring is used to accele
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Explanation:

As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.

So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.

Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So

1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have

1/2kx² = mgh

h = kx²/2mg

= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N

= 0.0259 m

= 2.59 cm

≅ 2.6 cm

So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
