Answer:

Combustibility is a measure of how easily a substance bursts into flame, through fire or combustion. This is an important property to consider when a substance is used for construction or is being stored. It is also important in processes that produce combustible substances as a by-product.

What are the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball? (enter your magnitude to at least one decimal

murzikaleks [220]

Details are missing in the question. Complete text of the problem:

"The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.28 N down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 16.5 m/s by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line for a time interval of 181 ms. The ball starts from rest.

(a) Through what distance does it move before its release? (m)
(b) What are the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball? (Enter your magnitude to at least one decimal place.)"

Solution

(a) The pitcher accelerates the baseball from rest to a final velocity of $v_f = 16.5 m/s$ , so $\Delta v=16.5 m/s$ , in a time interval of $\Delta t = 181 ms=0.181 s$ . The acceleration of the ball in the horizontal direction (x-axis) is therefore

$a_x = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}= \frac{16.5 m/s}{0.181 s}=91.2 m/s^2$

And the distance covered by the ball during this time interval, before it is released, is:

$S= \frac{1}{2} a_x (\Delta t)^2 = \frac{1}{2} (91.2 m/s^2)(0.181 s)^2=1.49 m$

(b) For this part we need to consider also the weight of the ball, which is $W=mg=2.28 N$

From this, we find its mass: $m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{2.28 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=0.23 Kg$

Now we can calculate the magnitude of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball. On the x-axis, we have

$F_x = m a_x = (0.23 kg)(91.2 m/s^2)=20.98 N$

We also know that the ball is moving straight horizontally. This means that the vertical component of the force exerted by the pitcher must counterbalance the weight of the ball (acting downward), in order to have a net force of zero along the y-axis, and so:

$F_y=W=mg=2.28 N$ (upward)

So, the magnitude of the force is

$F= \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}= \sqrt{(20.98N)^2+(2.28N)^2}=21.2 N$

To find the direction, we should find the angle of F with respect to the horizontal. This is given by

$\tan \alpha = \frac{F_y}{F_x}= \frac{2.28 N}{20.98 N}=0.11$

From which we find $\alpha=6.2^{\circ}$

When a car drives along a "washboard" road, the regular bumps cause the wheels to oscillate on the springs. (What actually oscil

marishachu [46]

Answer:

a) 40,000 N/m

b) f = 6.37 Hz

c) v = 4,8 m/s

Explanation:

part a)

First in order to estimate the spring constant k, we need to know the expression or formula to use in this case:

k = ΔF / Δx

Where:

ΔF: force that the men puts in the car, in this case, the weight.

Δx: the sinking of the car, which is 2 cm or 0.02 m.

With this data, and knowing that there are four mens, replace the data in the above formula:

W = 80 * 10 = 800 N

This is the weight for 1 man, so the 4 men together would be:

W = 800 * 4 = 3200 N

So, replacing this data in the formula:

k = 3200 / 0.02 = 160,000 N/m

This means that one spring will be:

k' = 160,000 / 4 = 40,000 N/m

b) An axle and two wheels has a mass of 50 kg, so we can assume they have a parallel connection to the car. If this is true, then:

k^n = 2k

To get the frequency, we need to know the angular speed of the car with the following expression:

wo = √k^n / M

M: mass of the wheel and axle, which is 50 kg

k = 40,000 N/m

Replacing the data:

wo = √2 * 40,000 / 50 = 40 rad/s

And the frequency:

f = wo/2π

f = 40 / 2π = 6.37 Hz

c) finally for the speed, we have the time and the distance, so:

V = x * t

The only way to hit bumps at this frequency, is covering the gaps of bumping, about 6 times per second so:

x: distance of 80 cm or 0.8 m

V = 0.8 * 6 =

V = 4.8 m/s

An older camera has a lens with a focal length of 60mm and uses 34-mm-wide film to record its images. Using this camera, a photo

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

24.71 mm

Explanation:

Distance is proportional to focal length, so

d∝f

which means

$\frac{d'_1}{d'_2}=\frac{f_1}{f_2}$

Magnification of first lens

$M_2=-\frac{d'_1}{d_1}$

and

$M_2=\frac{h'_1}{h_1}$

Similarly, magnification of second lens

$M_2=-\frac{d'_2}{d_1}$

and

$M_2=\frac{h'_2}{h_1}$

From the above equations we get

$\frac{M_1}{M_2}=\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}$

and

$\frac{M_1}{M_2}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}$

which means,

$\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}$

and

$\frac{d'_1}{d_2'}=\frac{f_1}{f_2}$

So, we get

$\frac{f_1}{f_2}=\frac{h'_1}{h_2'}\\\Rightarrow f_2=f_1\times\frac{h_2'}{h'_1}\\\Rightarrow f_2=60\times\frac{14}{34}=24.71\ mm$

∴ Focal length should this camera's lens is 24.71 mm

The pet store would be the reference point because it is where he started and it will not move. Hope this helped.
