You throw a baseball (mass 0.145 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.

At what height above your hand does the ball have half as much upward velocity? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of height and velocity of the ball are the following:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.81 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity of the ball at time t.

Placing the origin at the throwing point, y0 = 0.

Let´s use the equation of velocity to obtain the time at which the velocity is 12.0 m/s / 2 = 6.00 m/s.

v = v0 + g · t

6.00 m/s = 12.0 m/s -9.81 m/s² · t

(6.00 - 12.0)m/s / -9.81 m/s² = t

t = 0.612 s

Now, let´s calculate the height of the baseball at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²     (y0 = 0)

y = 12.0 m/s · 0.612 s - 1/2 · 9.81 m/s² · (0.612 s)²

y = 5.51 m

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Have a nice day!

An agriculturalist working with Australian pine trees wanted to investigate the relationship between the age and the height of t
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Step 1:

The available regression equation is: Predict height= 0.29 + 0.48 (age).

Here, the predict height is dependent variable and the  age is in-dependent variable.

Intercept = 0.29

Slope      = 0.48

The given regression equation indicates the y on x model and the intercept coefficients of the regression equation is 0.29 and the slope is 0.48.

Step 2:

The height increases, an average, by 0.48 m per year.

Because co-efficient of slope variable indicate the positive sign and we increase 1 year in age then automatically height increased is 0.48 m.

<h3></h3><h3>The height increases, on average, by 0.48 meter each year.</h3>

If you pull a resistant puppy with its leash in a horizontal direction, it takes 80 N to get it going. You can then keep it movi
netineya [11]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

Explanation:

The horizontal force applied to move the puppy from a steady state has to be greater than the force of static friction, after it is moving the force needs to be equal to be greater than the force of dynamic friction in order to maintain its movement. The force of static friction is given by:

F_s = \mu_s*N

Where F_s is the static friction force, \mu_s is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. Since there's no angle on the flor the normal force is equal to the weight of the puppy, therefore, N = 110\text{ N}, to make the puppy moving we need to use a force of 80 N, therefore, F_s = 80 \text{ N}, so we can solve for the coefficient as shown below:

80 = \mu_s*110\\\mu_s = \frac{80}{110} = 0.7273\\

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

Observe: Up until now, all the problems you have solved have involved converting only one unit. However, some conversion problem
ipn [44]

Answer:

t is appropriate to clarify that units such as time and angles the transformation is not in base ten, for example:

        60 s = 1 min

        60 min = 1 h

        24 h = 1 day

Therefore, for this transformation, you must be more careful

the length transformation is base 10

Explanation:

In many exercises the units used are transformed by equations into other units called derivatives, in general the transformation of derived units is the product of the transformation of the constituent units.

In the example of velocity, the derivative unit is m / s, which is why it works in the same way that you transform length and time if in the equation it is multiplying it is multiplied and if it is dividing it is divided.

It is appropriate to clarify that units such as time and angles the transformation is not in base ten, for example:

        60 s = 1 min

        60 min = 1 h

        24 h = 1 day

Therefore, for this transformation, you must be more careful

the length transformation is base 10

      1000 m = 1 km
