Answer:

THE ANSWER TERMS ARE DEFINED BLOW:-

Explanation:

MOMENTUM- IT IS THE ABILITY TO INCREASE OR DEVELOP CONSTANT FORCE.

KINETIC ENERGY:- IT IS THE ENERGY THAT A PRTICLE POSSES WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY IN MOTION.

POTENTIAL ENERGY:- IT IS THE ENERGY THAT A PARTICLE POSSES WHEN IT ACTUALLY IS IN RESTING STATE.

IN THIS ACIVITY THE SNOWBOARDER IS IN THE MOTION STATE THEREFORE HE POSSES KINETIC ENERGY AND TO MAINTAIN THAT KINEITC ENERG FOR A PERIOD OF TIME,MOMENTUM PLAYS IT'S ROLE.

Answer: 14.52*10^6 m/s

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the energy conservation for the electron within the coaxial cylidrical wire.

the change in potential energy for the electron; e*ΔV is equal to energy kinetic gained for the electron so:

e*ΔV=1/2*m*v^2 v^=(2*e*ΔV/m)^1/2= (2*1.6*10^-19*600/9.1*10^-31)^1/2=14.52 *10^6 m/s

Answer:

(a) $x'(t)= 142$

(b) 142

(d) 96.8 mph

(e) 0.426 s

(f) 0.061 rad

Explanation:

Velocity is a time-derivative of position.

(a) $x(t) = 142t$

$x'(t)= 142$

(b) Since $x'(t)= 142$ is independent of $t$ , it follows it was constant throughout. Hence, at any point or time, the horizontal velocity is 142.

$y'(t)= -32t+5$

(d) When it passes the home plate, the ball has travelled 60.5 ft (from the question). This is horizontal, so it is equivalent to $x(t)$ .

$x(t)= 142t = 60.5$

$t=\dfrac{60.5}{142}= 0.426$ .

In this time, the vertical velocity, $y'(t)$ is

$y(t)= -32\times0.426+5 = -8.632$

The speed of the ball at thus point is $s=\sqrt{142^2+(-8.632)^2}=142$ ft/s

To convert this to mph, we multiply the factor 3600/5280

$s=142\times\dfrac{3600}{5280}=96.8 \text{ mph}$

(e) The time has been determined from (d) above.

$t= 0.426$

(f) This angle is given by

$\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y'(t)}{x'(t)}$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{-8.632}{142}=\tan^{-1}-0.0607=3.47$ (Note here we are considering the acute angle so we ignore the negative sign)

In radians, this is

$\theta=3.47\times\dfrac{\pi}{180}=0.061 \text{ rad}$
