<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

The most ‘striking’ feature of the baseball is the stitches that interact with the air when the ball moves. Along with a slight effect on the air drag, there is a strong effect on the Magnus force. According to the stitch pattern, the Magnus force on a moving ball depends accordingly because the air interacts strongly with the raised stitches on the ball. Apart from this, the stitches provide a better grip for the pitcher and help in forcing the ball to move in different ways.

Those stitches are what "chews" into the wind when you like to throw a breaking ball. Additionally, a knuckleball that barely spins eats at the wind using the stitches on the ball and this enables it to drop, sail or rise.

In short, the stitches makes the ball air resistant or cut into air making it faster.

The voltage entering a transformer’s primary winding is 120 volts. The primary winding is wrapped around the iron core 10 times.

loris [4]

Answer

48 Volts

Explanation
The question can be solve using the turn rule of a transformer that states;

Np/Ns = Vp/Vs
Where Np ⇒ number of turns in the primary coil.
Ns ⇒number of turns in the seconndary coil
Vp ⇒ primary voltage
Vs ⇒secondary voltage

Np/Ns = Vp/Vs

10/4 = 120/Vp

Vp = (120 × 4)/10

= 480/10
= 48 Volts

Answer:

Only the 4 th statement is true that is bed 1 and 3 are older than 4.

Explanation:

The 5 beds are numbered from 1 to 5 , 1 being the lowest and 5 being the topmost bed.

We are given 4 statements and we have to find out which all are true.

(a)Bed 4 is older than bed 2

This is wrong because the lower beds are older than beds that are higher.

(b)Bed 3 is older than beds 2 and 4

This is also wrong because the 2 is older than 3

(c)Bed 5 is the oldest

This is wrong because bed 1 is the oldest

(d)Beds 1 and 3 are older than 4

This is true as lower beds are older

madam [21]

Answer:

the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow.

Explanation:

We can answer this exercise using Gauss's law

Ф = ∫ e . dA = $q_{int}$ / ε₀

field flow is directly proportionate to the charge found inside it, therefore if we place a Gaussian surface outside the plastic spherical shell. the flow must be zero since the charge of the sphere is equal induced in the shell, for which the net charge is zero. we see with this analysis that this shell meets the requirement to block the elective field

From the same Gaussian law it follows that if the sphere is not in the center, the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow , so no matter where the sphere is, the total induced charge is always equal to the charge on the sphere.

By algebra, d = [(v_f^2) - (v_i^2)]/2a. Thus, d = [(0^2)-(15^2)]/(2*-7) d = [0-(225)]/(-14) d = 225/14 d = 16.0714 m With 2 significant figures in the problem, the car travels 16 meters during deceleration.
