Answer:

The ball hitting the bat.

Explanation:

It is given that, a batter swings at a baseball. When the ball is being hitted by the bat, the action force acting on it is 5 N. Let R is the reaction force. It is equal to the action force but it acts in the opposite direction as per Newton's third law of motion.

The action and reaction forces acts on two different objects. Here, if the action force is " bat hitting the ball" then the reaction force will be "the ball hitting the bat" with a force of -5 N.

Hence, the correct option is (d) "the ball hitting the bat".

Nata [24]

The frequency of a sound is whatever frequency leaves the source. It doesn't change.

Voiced of swimmers at the pool don't change frequency in or out of the water. Only their speed and wavelength change.

You throw a tennis ball (mass 0.0570 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 15.0 m/s. Air resistance cannot be neg
Deffense [45]

Answer:195 J

Explanation:

Given

mass of ball m=0.0570\ kg

ball leaves the hand with u=15\ m/s

maximum height reached by ball h=8\ m

Initial Mechanical energy when ball just leaves the hand

M.E._1=(P.E.+K.E.)_1

M.E._1=(mgh)_1+(\frac{1}{2}mv^2)_1

considering hand to be datum so h_1=0[/tex]

so Potential energy at ground is zero

M.E._1=\frac{1}{2}\times m\times (15)^2

M.E._1=6.41\ J

Mechanical Energy at highest point

(M.E.)_2=(P.E.+K.E.)_2

at highest Point velocity is zero

(M.E.)_2=mgh_2+0

(M.E.)_2=0.0570\times 9.8\times 8

(M.E.)_2=4.46\ J

Decrease in Mechanical energy

(M.E.)_1-(M.E.)_2=6.41-4.46

(M.E.)_1-(M.E.)_2=1.95\ J

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired
Sauron [17]
They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

dexar [7]

Answer:

a=5m/s^2

Explanation:

Aceleration is a change on the velocity of the object in a given time.

For this case: the initial velocity is

v_{1}=150m/s

and the final velocity is :

v_{2}=0 m/s

so, the change in velocity is:

\Delta v =v_{2}-v_{1}=0m/s - (-150m/s) =  150 m/s

and the change in time , according to the problem:

\Delta t=30s

So, the aceleration is:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{150m/s}{30s} = 5m/s^2

a 59kg physics student jumps off the back of her laser sailboat (42kg). after she jumps the laser is found to be travelling at 1
evablogger [386]

From the conservation of linear momentum of closed system,

Initial momentum = final momentum

Mass of the student, M = 59 kg

Mass of the laser boat, m = 42 kg

Initial speed of student + laser boat, u =0

Final speed of laser boat, v = 1.5 m/s

Final speed of the student = V

(M+m) u =M V +m v

0 = (59 kg) V + (42 kg) (1.5m/s)

V = - 1.06 m/s

Thus, the speed of the student is 1.06 m/s in the opposite direction of the motion of boat.
