A baseball is pitched horizontally toward home plate with a velocity of 110 km/h. In which of the following scenarios does the b

aseball have the largest change in momentum?
a. The baseball is hit straight back to the pitcher at a speed of 110 km/h.
b. The catcher catches the ball.
c. The ball is popped straight up at a speed of 110 km/h.
d. The catcher catches the ball, and the ball is popped straight up at a speed of 110 km/h have the same change in momentum.

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

velocity to hit home plate = 110 Km/h

a) When the baseball is hit straight back

     Assuming the momentum before hitting be P and after hitting the bal is also equal to P.

change in momentum = P - (-P) = 2P

b) When the catcher catches the ball the change in momentum is equal to zero.

c) when the ball is popped up the change in momentum

   p_x = P and P_y = P

  resultant momentum = \sqrt{P^2+ P^2} = \sqrt{2}\ P

the maximum change in momentum will be in case  A

The correct answer is option A

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

3.1×10⁻¹¹ N

Explanation:

Use Coulomb's law:

F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

F = (9×10⁹) (6.0×10⁻¹⁰) (2.3×10⁻¹⁵) / (0.02 m)²

F = 3.1×10⁻¹¹

Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence
Lynna [10]

Answer:

1) Recollapsing universe

2) critical universe

3) Coasting universe

Explanation:

According to the smallest ration (ratio actual mass density to current density) to largest ration, rank of models for expansion of universe are

1) Recollapsing universe -in this, metric expansion of space is reverse and universe recollapses.

2) critical universe - in this, expansion of universe is very low.

3) Coasting universe -  in this, expansion of universe is steady and uniform

Two long straight wires enter a room through a window. One carries a current of 2.9A into the room, while the other carries a cu
Degger [83]

Answer and Explanation:

curents i = 2.9 A

           i ' = 4.4 A

the magnitude (in T.m) of the path integral of B.dl around the window frame = μo * current enclosed

          = μo* ( i '- i )

Since from Ampere's law

where μ o = permeability of free space = 4π * 10 ^-7 H / m

plug the values we get the magnitude (in T.m) of the path integral of B.dl = ( 4π*10^-7 ) (2.9+4.4)

                                 = 1.884 * 10^-6 Tm

A flute player hears four beats per second when she compares her note to an 880 Hz tuning fork (note A). She can match the frequ
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

884Hz

Explanation:

Beats is the absolute difference between two frequencies therefore

Beats = f1-f2

4=f1-880

F1=880+4

F1=884Hz

An overnight rainstorm has caused a major roadblock. Three massive rocks of mass m1=584 kg, m2=838 kg, and m3=322 kg have blocke
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Force must be applied to m₁ to move the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s² = 436 N

Explanation:

Total force required = Mass x Acceleration,

F = ma

Here we need to consider the system as combine, total mass need to be considered.

Total mass, a = m₁+m₂+m₃ = 584 + 838 + 322 = 1744 kg

We need to accelerate the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s²

That is acceleration, a = 0.250 m/s²

Force required, F = ma = 1744 x 0.25 = 436 N

Force must be applied to m₁ to move the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s² = 436 N
