Answer:

number of home runs a player would hit would drastically increase

Explanation:

In a hypothetical scenario, if this were to happen the number of home runs a player would hit would drastically increase. When a player hits the ball force is applied to the ball which sends it flying, then the ball meets an opposing force of air resistance and a downward force of gravity which ultimately causes the ball to fall to the ground. This is explained in Newton's first law which states that "objects in motion remain in uniform motion and in a straight line unless they are met by an opposing unbalanced force." Without the force of air resistance, the ball will only be met with a downward force of gravity which would allow it to travel at a much greater distance before hitting the ground, thus resulting in a drastic increase of home runs.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

0.01154 A

Explanation:

We have given the energy in the magnetic field U=4\times 10^{-6}J

Value of inductance L =0.060 H

Energy stored in magnetic field is given by U=\frac{1}{2}Li^2

i=\sqrt{\frac{2U}{L}}

i=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{0.06}}=0.01154\ A

So the current flowing through rectangular toroid will be 0.01154 A

the water behind hoover dam in nevada is 206 m higher than the colorado river below it. at what rate must water pass through the
Nitella [24]

Answer:

the required mass flow rate is 49484.37 kg/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we first determine the relation for mass flow rate of water that passes through the turbine;

so the relation for net work on the turbine due to the change in potential energy considering 100% efficiency is;

W_{net} = m ( Δ P.E )

so we substitute (gh) for ( Δ P.E );

W_{net} = m (gh)

m = W_{net} / gh

so we substitute our given values into the equation

m = 100 MW / ( 9.81 m/s²) × 206 m

m = ( 100 MW × 10⁶W/MW) / ( 9.81 m/s²) × 206 m

m = 10 × 10⁷ / 2020.86

m = 49484.37 kg/s

Therefore, the required mass flow rate is 49484.37 kg/s

A 1500 kg car traveling at 20 m/s suddenly runs out of gas while approaching the valley shown in the figure. The alert driver im
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

v_f = 17.4 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use conservation of energy

starting point. On the hill when running out of gas

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g y₁

final point. Arriving at the gas station

         Em_f = K + U = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ m v₀ ² + m g y₁ = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

        v_f ² = v₀² + 2g (y₁ -y₂)

         

we calculate

        v_f ² = 20² + 2 9.8  (10 -15)

        v_f = √302

         v_f = 17.4 m / s

Una cuerda de violin vibra con una frecuencia fundamental de 435 Hz. Cual sera su frecuencia de vibracion si se le somete a una
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

a)  f = 615.2 Hz      b)  f = 307.6 Hz

Explanation:

The speed in a wave on a string is

         v = √ T / μ

also the speed a wave must meet the relationship

          v = λ f

           

Let's use these expressions in our problem, for the initial conditions

            v = √ T₀ /μ

             √ (T₀/ μ) = λ₀ f₀

now it indicates that the tension is doubled

         T = 2T₀

          √ (T /μ) = λ f

          √( 2To /μ) = λ f

         √2  √ T₀ /μ = λ f

we substitute

         √2 (λ₀ f₀) = λ f

if we suppose that in both cases the string is in the same fundamental harmonic, this means that the wavelength only depends on the length of the string, which does not change

           λ₀ = λ

           f = f₀ √2

           f = 435 √ 2

           f = 615.2 Hz

b) The tension is cut in half

         T = T₀ / 2

         √ (T₀ / 2muy) =  f = λ f

          √ (T₀ / μ)  1 /√2 = λ f

           fo / √2 = f

           f = 435 / √2

           f = 307.6 Hz

La velocidad en una onda en una cuerda es

         v = √ T/μ

ademas la velocidad una onda debe cumplir la relación

          v= λ f  

           

Usemos estas expresión en nuestro problema, para las condiciones iniciales

            v= √ To/μ

             √ ( T₀/μ) = λ₀ f₀

ahora nos indica que la tensión se duplica

         T = 2T₀

          √ ( T/μ) = λf

          √ ) 2T₀/μ = λ f

         √ 2 √ T₀/μ = λ f

         

substituimos  

         √2    ( λ₀ f₀)  =  λ f

si suponemos que en los dos caso la cuerda este en el mismo armónico fundamental, esto es que la longitud de onda unicamente depende de la longitud de la cuerda, la cual no cambia

                 λ₀ =  λ

           f = f₀ √2

           f = 435 √2

           f = 615,2 Hz

b)  La tension se reduce a la mitad

         T = T₀/2    

         RA ( T₀/2μ)  =  λ  f

          Ra(T₀/μ) 1/ra 2  =  λ f

           fo /√ 2 = f

           f = 435/√2

           f = 307,6 Hz
