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.
Complete question is;
An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.
The results are shown in the image attached.
What figure is missing from the table?
Answer:
17.3 cm
Explanation:
The image attached showed values for load, extension and initial length.
Now, the first length there is 15.2 cm and as such it's corresponding extension is 0 because it has no preceding measured length.
The second measured length is 16.2 cm. Since it's initial measured length is 15.2 cm, then the extension has a formula; final length - initial length.
This gives: 16.2 - 15.2 = 1 cm
This corresponds to what is given in the table.
For the next measured length, it is blank but we are given the extension to be 2.1 cm. Now, since the initial measured length is 15.2 cm.
Thus;
2.1 cm = Final length - 15.2 cm
Final length = 15.2 + 2.1
Final length = 17.3 cm
Answer: object B is negatively charged, object C is positively charged and object D is also positively charged
Explanation: since unlike charges attract and like charges repel, for object A which is positively charged and B to attract B must be negatively charged and then for B which is negatively charged and C to attract C must be positively charged and for C and D to repel they have to be of thesame charge which means D is positive as well.
Hello!
The best explanation is the new "experimental evidence", which occur with the help of new and improved technology. For this question, I suggest you to answer letter b).
Hugs!
Moth X is more likely to be eaten by insect killing birds first. This is because Moth Y blends in with the tree trunk more and is hidden from birds. Its wings camouflage with the tree trunk, hiding it from sight.
