The batter swings and misses the 40 m/s (90 mph) fastball, and the ball (mass 150 grams) ends up at rest in the catcher's mitt. How much work does the catcher perform on the ball

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The work done by the catcher is 120 J.

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the fastball, v = 40 m/s

mass of the fastball, m = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Based on work-energy theorem, the work done by the catcher is equal to the kinetic energy of the fastball.

The kinetic energy of the fastball is given as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ x 0.15 x 40²

K.E = 120 J

Therefore, the work done by the catcher is 120 J.

Shelley is in an elevator that is traveling downward and slowing down at a rate of
0.950 m/s2. If Shelley has a mass of 73.2 kg, what is her apparent weight during this
period?

Answers

Answer:

N = 648.55[N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

∑F =  Forces applied [N]

m = mass = 73.2 [kg]

a = acceleration = 0.950 [m/s²]

Let's assume the direction of the upward forces as positive, just as if the movement of the box is upward the acceleration will be positive.

By performing a summation of forces on the vertical axis we obtain all the required forces and other magnitudes to be determined.

[tex]-m*g + N = -m*a\\[/tex]

where:

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

N = normal force (or weight) measured by the scale = 83.4 [N]

Now replacing:

[tex]-(73.2*9.81)+N=-73.2*0.950\\-718.092+N=-69.54\\N = -69.54+718.092\\N = 648.55[N][/tex]

The acceleration has a negative sign, this means that the elevator is descending at that very moment.

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

Answer:

Steel Wool + Oxygen, Steel wool has a hard texture but is a grayish color. It looks like it's a powder, and also that it was rusted steel wool and then broken apart converted into a powder. So Iron oxide is 7 grams and combined steel wool is 7 grams, so you may assume that the mass has been retained. Yeah, it is a chemical change since the corrosion and rust in steel wool is a chemical process, but iron oxide is triggered by a physical change.

Egg + Heat, In the center, the egg has a yellow yolk while at the edge of the egg there is a kind of liquid, but it is visible, the heat becomes hot but clear The egg transformed into a delicious food called an omelet, which was yolk staid as a liquid but got a little harder, It was retained because the eggshell was 4 grams and the fried egg is 41 grams, but the clear border around it changed color. It is a chemical transition, and it results in the creation of new particles and the chemical bonds split apart and new ones are formed

Water + Heat, Water is a clear liquid, while the heat is very hot yet transparent. Once 5 g of liquid is a gas, it'll become 5 g of water vapor. Water + Heat Water is really a clear liquid. The mass of the liquid water is simply transformed into mass of the water vapor that is freshly created. There was no chemical process although water vapor can also be converted back to water, but it only shifted from a liquid to a gas and the structure did not change.

Zinc + Hydrogen Chloride Zinc, a metal white/silver solid. A clear, colorless liquid fluid with a really low pH in hydrogen chloride In hydrogen chloride, zinc is “dissolved” while releasing a colorless vapor. The liquid, possibly still having a low pH from the remaining acid, stays a colorless liquid.As sparked with a burning wooden splint, the colorless gas gathered in a tube provides a loud bang, because it is neither air trapped in the zinc, nor absorbed in hydropower acids. Well, even if the zinc is 12 grams and not 15 grams, the gas released was 3 grams and, as we all know, 3 + 12 is 15, so you could claim also that volume has also been saved.

Sodium Hydroxide + Copper, Sulfate Sodium hydroxide is a turbid solution and bright blue crystals are formed from copper sulfate A pale blue powder of basic copper hydroxide a solution of neutral salt sulfuric acid would be produced when their solutions are mixed with each other. The combined sodium hydroxide and copper sulfate make a total of 67 grams and the product is split because the sodium sulfate is 47 grams and the copper hydroxide is 20 grams, but all together it is still 67 grams, and you could assume that now the mass has been conserved. The evidence of a response was its image of royal blue basic copper hydroxide precipitates and a neutral salt sodium solution

A student adds two vectors of magnitudes 48 m and 22 m. What are the maximum and minimum possible values for the resultant of these two vectors.

Answers

Answer:

Maximum=70 m

Minimum=26 m

Explanation:

Vector Addition

Since vectors have magnitude and direction, adding them takes into consideration not only the magnitudes but also their respective directions. Two vectors can be totally collaborative, i.e., point to the same direction, or be totally opposite. In the first case, the magnitude of the sum is at maximum. Otherwise, it's at a minimum.

Thus, the maximum magnitude of the sum is 48+22 = 70 m and the minimum magnitude of the sum is 48-22= 26 m

What fraction of an iceberg is submerged? (ρice = 917 kg/m3, ,ρsea = 1030 kg/m3.)

Answers

Answer:

Choice d. Approximately [tex]89\%[/tex] of the volume of this iceberg would be submerged.

Explanation:

Let [tex]V_\text{ice}[/tex] denote the total volume of this iceberg. Let [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] denote the volume of the portion that is under the liquid.

The mass of that iceberg would be [tex]\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice}[/tex]. Let [tex]g[/tex] denote the gravitational field strength ([tex]g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}[/tex] near the surface of the earth.) The weight of that iceberg would be: [tex]\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice} \cdot g[/tex].

If the iceberg is going to be lifted out of the sea, it would take water with volume [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] to fill the space that the iceberg has previously taken. The mass of that much sea water would be [tex]\rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged}[/tex].

Archimedes' Principle suggests that the weight of that much water will be exactly equal to the buoyancy on the iceberg. By Archimedes' Principle:

[tex]\text{buoyancy} = \rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged} \cdot g[/tex].

The buoyancy on the iceberg should balance the weight of this iceberg. In other words:

[tex]\underbrace{\rho_\text{ice} \cdot V_\text{ice} \cdot g}_\text{weight of iceberg} = \underbrace{\rho_\text{sea} \cdot V_\text{submerged} \cdot g}_\text{buoyancy on iceberg}[/tex].

Rearrange this equation to find the ratio between [tex]V_\text{submerged}[/tex] and [tex]V_\text{ice}[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} &\frac{V_\text{submerged}}{V_\text{ice}} \\&= \frac{\rho_\text{ice} \cdot g}{\rho_\text{sea} \cdot g}\\ &= \frac{\rho_\text{ice}}{\rho_\text{sea}}\ = \frac{917\; \rm kg \cdot m^{-3}}{1030\; \rm kg \cdot m^{-3}} \approx 0.89 \end{aligned}[/tex].

In other words, [tex]89\%[/tex] of the volume of this iceberg would have been submerged for buoyancy to balance the weight of this iceberg.

What causes the magnetic field around the wire?
Magnetic field
O A. An electric current
O B. An electric field
PREVIOUS

Answers

An electric current causes the magnetic field around the wire. The correct answer is A.

The magnetic field around a wire is caused by the flow of electric current through the wire. When an electric current passes through a wire, it generates a magnetic field that forms circular lines of magnetic flux around the wire. This phenomenon is described by Ampere's law, which states that a magnetic field is produced by an electric current and its strength is directly proportional to the magnitude of the current.

The relationship between the electric current and the magnetic field can be understood using the right-hand rule. If you wrap your right hand around the wire with your thumb pointing in the direction of the current, the curled fingers indicate the direction of the magnetic field lines.

Therefore, an electric field is generated by an electric charge, not by an electric current. While an electric field can exist around a wire if there is a potential difference (voltage) applied across it, it is the flow of electric current that primarily generates the magnetic field.

. Emily pushes a 38.8 kg grocery cart of groceries by exerting a 76.0 N force on the handle inclined at 40.0 degrees below the horizontal. What are:
a. The horizontal and vertical components of Emily’s force






b. The acceleration of the cart?

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]F_{x} = 58.2 N[/tex]

[tex] F_{y} = 48.9 N [/tex]

b) a = 1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The horizontal and vertical components of Emily's force can be found knowing the angle and the exerted force.

Since the handle is inclined at 40.0° below the horizontal we have:

[tex] F_{x} = |F|*cos(\theta) = 76.0 N*cos(40) = 58.2 N [/tex]

[tex] F_{y} = |F|*sin(\theta) = 76.0 N*sin(40) = 48.9 N [/tex]

b) The acceleration of the car can be calculated as follows:

[tex] F_{x} = ma [/tex]        

We used the horizontal component of the force because the cart is moving in that direction.

[tex] a = \frac{F_{x}}{m} = \frac{58.2 N}{38.8 kg} = 1.5 m/s^{2} [/tex]

Hence, the acceleration of the car is 1.5 m/s².

A nearsighted person has a far point of 40cm. What power spectacle lens is needed if the lens is 2cm from the eye

Answers

Answer:

The value is [tex]p = - 2.63 \ Diopters[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

      The value of the far point is  [tex]a = 40 \ cm = 0.4 \ m[/tex]

      The distance of the lens to the eye is  [tex]b = 2 \ cm = 0.02[/tex]

Generally

        [tex]1 Diopter = > 1 m^{-1}[/tex]

Generally the power spectacle lens needed is mathematically represented as

           [tex]p = \frac{1}{d_o } + \frac{1}{d_i}[/tex]

Here [tex]d_o[/tex] is the object distance which for a near sighted person is [tex]d_o = \infty[/tex]

And  [tex]d_i[/tex] is the image distance which is evaluated as

        [tex]d_i = b - a[/tex]

=>     [tex]d_i = 0.02 - 0.4[/tex]

=>     [tex]d_i = -0.38 \ m[/tex]

So

         [tex]p = \frac{1}{\infty } + \frac{1}{-0.38}[/tex]

=>      [tex]p = 0 - 2.63[/tex]

=>      [tex]p = - 2.63 \ Diopters[/tex]

A particular engine has a power output of 5 kW and an efficiency of 30%. If the engine expels 6464 J of thermal energy in each cycle, find the heat absorbed in each cycle. Answer in units of J.

Answers

Answer:

The heat absorbed in each cycle is 9,234.286 J

Explanation:

Given;

power output, P = 5 kW = 5,000 W

efficiency of the engine, e = 30 % = 0.3

thermal heat expelled, [tex]Q_c[/tex] = 6464 J

let the heat absorbed = [tex]Q_h[/tex]

The efficiency of the engine is given as;

[tex]e = \frac{W}{Q_h} = \frac{Q_h-Q_c}{Q_h} = \frac{Q_h}{Q_h} - \frac{Q_c}{Q_h} = 1-\frac{Q_c}{Q_h}\\\\e = 1-\frac{Q_c}{Q_h}\\\\0.3 = 1-\frac{Q_c}{Q_h}\\\\\frac{Q_c}{Q_h} = 1-0.3\\\\\frac{Q_c}{Q_h} = 0.7\\\\Q_h = \frac{Q_c}{0.7} \\\\Q_h = \frac{6464}{0.7} = 9,234.286 \ J.[/tex]

Therefore, the heat absorbed in each cycle is 9,234.286 J.
