The force acting on the ball are unbalanced. Reactionary momentum force (that originated as a result of the swing of the bat) is the most powerful.
Yes friction is acting on the ball. In course of journey it would slow the ball down and make it trace a parabolic path rather than straight path as intended by hitter.
Explanation:
As the hitter hits the ball, momentum of the bat due to swing (mass of the bat*velocity provided by the batsman swinging action of bat) gets transferred on the ball on its impact with the bat.
Since ball’s mass is quite small as compared to the bat, the velocity of the ball increases by the same factor by which the ball’s mass is lower than the bat’s mass. This velocity causes forward motion of the ball (of course in the direction of bat’s motion, here the batsman intends to send the ball straight away hence the ball would move straight).
Various forces on ball is-
- Reactionary momentum force -bat’s force (most powerful force)
- The frictional force of the air (opposing the motion of the ball through the air)
- Gravity force (pulling the ball down to the Earth)
As a combined effect of these force when all the force remains unbalanced, the ball moves away in the straight path under the impact of bats momentum which was most powerful of all.
Frictional force and Gravity force continue acting on the ball. While frictional forces decrease the ball velocity through the air, gravity force pulls it down thus deflecting its direction. Under the combined impact of declining bats momentum, friction force and gravity force, the ball traces a parabolic path (in accordance with the first law of motion from Newton)
The answer is a. endothermic.
In endothermic reaction, as the name suggests, the reactants require energy absorption to form and complete the chemical reaction to form products.
And even if you don't know the answer, you can exclude all other answers by scientific logic and you will be left with the correct answer.
Hope this helps.
Explanation:
The darker the object, the better it emits heat, because it's a better absorber of light. On the other hand, a white object appears white because it reflects all the different wavelengths and absorbs little to no light.
The correct is D.
Explanation: The specific heat is defined as heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass by one degree. Greater the specific heat, more is the heat required to raise the temperature for equal mass. So, the temperature of the material with lowest specific heat will increase the most for the same amount of heat energy.
