A second baseman tosses the ball to the first baseman, who catches it at the same level from which it was thrown. The throw is m

ade with an initial speed of 18.0m/s at an angle of 37.5 above the horizontal. A) What is the horizontal component of the ball's velocity just before it is caught? B) How long is the ball in the air?. . Can someone please explain to me how this works not just the answer I'm somewhat confused.

 <span>(a) 

Taking the angle of the pitch, 37.5°, and the particle's initial velocity, 18.0 ms^-1, we get: 

18.0*cos37.5 = v_x = 14.28 ms^-1, the projectile's horizontal component. 

(b) 
To much the same end do we derive the vertical component: 

18.0*sin37.5 = v_y = 10.96 ms^-1 

Which we then divide by acceleration, a_y, to derive the time till maximal displacement, 

10.96/9.8 = 1.12 s 

Finally, doubling this value should yield the particle's total time with r_y > 0 

<span>2.24 s

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

The position function x(t) of a particle moving along an x axis is x = 4.00 - 6.00t2, with x in meters and t in seconds. (a) at
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The position function x(t) of a particle moving along an x axis is x=4.00 - 6.00t^2

a) The point at which particle stop, it's velocity = 0 m/s

  So dx/dt = 0

        0 = 0- 12t = -12t

  So when time t= 0, velocity = 0 m/s

    So the particle is starting from rest.

At t = 0 the particle is (momentarily) stop

b) When t = 0

 x=4.00 - 6.00*0^2 = 4m

SO at x = 4m the particle is (momentarily) stop

c) We have x=4.00 - 6.00t^2

   At origin x = 0

  Substituting

         0 = 4.00 - 6.00t^2\\ \\ t^2 = \frac{2}{3}

         t = 0.816 seconds or t = - 0.816 seconds

So when  t = 0.816 seconds and t = - 0.816 seconds, particle pass through the origin.

The loudness of a sound is inversely proportional to the square of your distance from the source of the sound. if your friend is
kirill [66]
Let loudness be L, distance be d, and k be the constant of variation such that the equation that would best represent the given above is,
                    L = k/(d^2)
For Case 1,
                       L1 = k/(d1^2)
For Case 2,
                       L2 = k/((d1/4)^2)
For k to be equal, L1 = 16L2. 
Therefore, the loudness at your friend's position is 16 times that of yours.

GaryK [48]

Given that,

Distance in south-west direction = 250 km

Projected angle to east = 60°

East component = ?

since,

cos ∅ = base/hypotenuse

base= hyp * cos ∅

East component = 250 * cos 60°

East component = 125 km

jenyasd209 [6]

answer;

The hole in the center of the washer will expand

explanation;

<em>A flat metal washer is heated. As the washer's temperature increases, what happens to the hole in the center? A flat metal washer is heated. As the washer's temperature increases, what happens to the hole in the center? The hole in the center will remain the same size. Changes in the hole cannot be determined without know the composition of the metal. The hole in the center of the washer will expand. The hole in the center of the washer will contract.</em>

this is an example of area expansivity.

coefficient of area expansivity is change in area per area per degree rise in temperature

a=dA/(A*dt)

as the temperature rises , there will be volumetric and area expansivity on the body. volume also increases because of the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecule is now getting apart.

slader A girl of mass 55 kg throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of
Ivan

Answer: 800N

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of ball =0.8kg

Contact time = 0.05 sec

Final velocity = initial velocity = 25m/s

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is can be calculated using the relation;

Force(F) = mass(m) * average acceleration(a)

a= (initial velocity(u) + final velocity(v))/t

m = 0.8kg

u = v = 25m/s

t = contact time of the ball = 0.05s

Therefore,

a = (25 + 25) ÷ 0.05 = 1000m/s^2

Therefore,

Magnitude of average force (F)

F=ma

m = mass of ball = 0.8

a = 1000m/s^2

F = 0.8 * 1000

F = 800N
