The velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the pitcher, m₁ = 50 kg</em>
  • <em>Mass of the baseball, m₂ = 0.15 kg</em>
  • <em>Velocity of the ball, u₂ = 35 m/s</em>

<em />

Let the velocity of the pitcher = u₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the velocity of the pitcher as shown below;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

u_1 = \frac{m_2 u_2}{m_1} \\\\u_1 = \frac{0.15 \times 35}{50} \\\\u_1 = 0.105 \ m/s\\\\u_1 \approx 0.1 \ m/s

Thus, the velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

A uniform solid sphere has mass m= 7 kg and radius r= 0. 4 m. What is its moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface
lilavasa [31]

The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere is equal to 0.448 kgm^2.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Mass of sphere = 7 kg.

Radius of sphere = 0.4 meter.

<h3>How to calculate moment of inertia.</h3>

Mathematically, the moment of inertia of a solid sphere is given by this formula:

I=\frac{2}{5} mr^2

<u>Where:</u>

  • I is the moment of inertia.
  • m is the mass.
  • r is the radius.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

I=\frac{2}{5} \times 7 \times 0.4^2\\\\I=2.8 \times 0.16

I = 0.448 kgm^2.

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B at a speed of 2.30 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration of 1.70 10
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed (V) = speed of 2.30×10^7 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 1.70×10^13 m/s^2

Using the right hand rule provided by  Lorentz law:

B = F / qvSinΘ

Where B = magnitude of the magnetic field

v = speed of the particle

Θ = 90° (perpendicular to the field)

q = charge of the particle

SinΘ = sin90°  = 1

Note F = ma

Therefore,

B = ma / qvSinΘ

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27

Charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C

B = [(1.67 × 10^-27) × (1.70 × 10^13)] / (1.6 × 10^-19) × (2.30 × 10^7) × 1

B = 2.839 × 10^-14 / 3.68 × 10^-12

B = 0.7715 × 10^-2

B = 7.72 × 10^-3 T

2) Magnetic field will be in the negative y direction according to the right hand thumb rule.

Since Velocity is in the positive z- direction, acceleration in the positive x - direction, then magnetic field must be in the negative y-direction.
