Complete each statement about the sign of the work done on a baseball. Carlton catches a baseball and his hand moves backward as

he brings the ball to a halt, doing work on the baseball. Carlton throws a baseball, doing work on the baseball. Carlton carries a baseball in his hand as he rides his bicycle in a straight line at constant speed, doing work on the baseball. Carlton carries a baseball in his hand as he rides his bicycle in a straight line with increasing speed, doing work on the baseball.

Answer and Explanation:

The work done is negative as the force is applied in the forward direction and the displacement of the hand is in the backward direction.
The work done is positive as the work is done on the baseball by Carlton. Moreover, both the force applied and the displacement of Carlton are in a straight line in the forward direction.
The work done in this case is zero as Carlton rides with constant speed, the Kinetic energy too remains constant and hence net work done is zero.
The work done in this case is positive as the work is done on the baseball by Carlton and as the velocity changes its Kinetic energy also varies wit it.
Also the force applied and the displacement of Carlton in this case are in the directed to the same path.

The drawing shows three identical springs hanging from the ceiling. Nothing is attached to the first spring, whereas a 4.50-N bl

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a. 30 N / m

b. 9.0 N

Explanation:

Given that

Unstretched length of the spring, $L_o$ = 20.0cm = 0.2m

a) When the mass of 4.5N is hanging from the second spring, then extended length Is

$L_1$ = 35.0cm = 0.35m

So, the change in spring length when mass hangs is

$x = L_1 - L_o$

= (0.35 - 0.20) m

= 0.15m

As spring are identical

Let us assume that the spring constant be "k", so at equilibrium

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

kx = W = 4.50

$k= \frac{4.50}{x} = \frac{4.50}{0.15}$

= 30 N / m

b) Now for the third spring, stretched the length of spring is

$L_2$ = 50cm = 0.5m

So, the change in spring length is

$x'= L_2 - L_o$

= (0.5-0.20)m

= 0.30m

At equilibrium,

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

Now using all mentioned and computed values in above,

$W'= kx'$

= 30(0.3)

= 9.0 N

While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

Assume that the mass has been moving along its circular path for some time. You start timing its motion with a stopwatch when it

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$v = R\omega(-sin\omega t \hat i + cos\omega t \hat j)$

Explanation:

As we know that the mass is revolving with constant angular speed in the circle of radius R

So we will have

$\theta = \omega t$

now the position vector at a given time is

$r = Rcos\theta \hat i + R sin\theta \hat j$

now the linear velocity is given as

$v = \frac{dr}{dt}$

$v = (-R sin\theta \hat i + R cos\theta \hat j)\frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$v = R\omega(-sin\omega t \hat i + cos\omega t \hat j)$

The diameters of bolts produced by a certain machine are normally distributed with a mean of 0.30 inches and a standard deviatio

enot [183]

Answer:

2.25 %

Explanation:

65-95-99.7 is a rule to remember the precentages that lies around the mean.

at the range of mean ( $\mu$ ) plus or minus one standard deviation ( $\sigma$ ), $P([\mu-\sigma \leq X \leq \mu+\sigma])\approx 68.3%$

at the range of mean plus or minus two standard deviation, $P([\mu -2\sigma \leq X \leq \mu+2\sigma])\approx 95.5%$

at the range of mean plus or minus three standard deviation, $P([\mu - 3\sigma\leq X \leq \mu+3\sigma])\approx 99.7%$

So, note that they are asking about the probability that it is greater than 0.32, that is the mean (0.3) plus two times the standard deviation (0.1) ( $P(X \leq \mu+2\sigma)$ )

So we know that the 95.5% is between $\mu - 2\sigma = 0.3 -2*0.1 = 0.28$ and $\mu + 2\sigma = 0.3 +2*0.1 = 0.32$ , hence approximately the 4.5% (100%-95.5%) is greater than 0.32 or less than 0.28. But half (4.5%/2=2.25%) is greater than 0.32 and the other half is less than 0.28.

So $P(X \leq \mu+2\sigma) \approx 2.25%$
