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.

Consider the following cyclic process carried out in two steps on a gas. Step 1: 44 J of heat is added to the gas, and 20. J of

notka56 [123]

Answer:37 J

Explanation:

Given

Step :1

Heat added Q=44 J

Work done=-20 J

$\Delta E_1=Q+W=44-20=24 J$

Step :2

Heat added Q=-61 J

work done $W_2$

$\Delta E_2=Q+W_2$

$\Delta E_2=61+W_2$

$\Delta E_1+\Delta E_2=0$

as the process is cyclic

$44-20-61+W_2=0$

$W_2=37 J$

work done in compression is 37 J

A 3.50-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 × 10-6 meter2 is at 20° Celsius. If the wire has a resistance of

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

$5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by $\rho=\frac {AR}{L}$ where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and $\rho$ is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

$\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

If he leaves the ramp with a speed of 31.0 m/s and has a speed of 29.5 m/s at the top of his trajectory, determine his maximum h

raketka [301]

Answer:

The maximum height reached is 4.63 m.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the man (u) = 31.0 m/s

Speed at the top of trajectory ( $u_x$ ) = 29.5 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

When the man reaches the top of the trajectory, the vertical component of velocity becomes zero and hence only horizontal component of velocity acts on him.

Also, since there is no net force acting in the horizontal direction, the acceleration is zero in the horizontal direction from Newton's second law. Thus, the horizontal component of velocity always remains the same.

So, speed at the top of trajectory is nothing but the horizontal component of initial velocity.

Now, initial velocity can be rewritten in terms of its components as:

$u^2=u_x^2+u_y^2$

Where, $u_x\ and\ u_y$ are the initial horizontal and vertical velocities of the man.

Now, plug in the given values and simplify. This gives,

$(31.0)^2=(29.5)^2+u_y^2\\\\961=870.25+u_y^2\\\\u_y^2=961-870.25\\\\u_y^2=90.75\ m^2/s^2--------1$

Now, we know that, for a projectile motion, the maximum height is given as:

$H=\frac{u_y^2}{2g}$

Plug in the value from equation (1) and 9.8 for 'g' to solve for 'H'. This gives,

$H=\frac{90.75}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=4.63\ m$

Therefore, the maximum height reached is 4.63 m.

To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V

aleksley [76]

Answer:

The maximum energy stored in the combination is 0.0466Joules

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Three capacitors C1-11.7 μF, C2 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF are connected in series. To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V. Determine the maximum energy stored in the series combination.

Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CtV² where

Ct is the total effective capacitance

V is the supply voltage

Since the capacitors are connected in series.

1/Ct = 1/C1+1/C2+1/C3

Given C1 = 11.7 μF, C2 = 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF

1/Ct = 1/11.7 + 1/21.0 + 1/28.8

1/Ct = 0.0855+0.0476+0.0347

1/Ct = 0.1678

Ct = 1/0.1678

Ct = 5.96μF

Ct = 5.96×10^-6F

Since V = 125V

E = 1/2(5.96×10^-6)(125)²

E = 0.0466Joules

What is the frequency heard by a person driving at 15 m/s toward a factory whistle emitting a

zmey [24]

Answer:

835.29 Hz

Explanation:

When moving towards the source of sound, frequency will be given by

f*=f(vd+v)/v

Where f is the freqiency of the source, vd is the driving speed, v is the speed of sound in air, f* is the inkown frequency when moving forward.

Substituting 800 Hz for f, 340 m/s for v and 15 m/s for vd then

f*=800(15+340)/340=835.29411764704 Hz

Rounded off, the frequency is approximately 835.29 Hz
