Question: The sport with the fastest moving ball is jai alai, where measured speeds have reached 303 km/hr. If a professional jai alai player faces a ball at that speed and involuntarily blinks, he blacks out the scene for 100 ms. How far does the ball move during the blackout?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

The distance ball moved during the blackout is 8.42m.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The measured speed, 303km/h

Time interval, 鈻�t=100m/s

02

The speed of an object is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is a scalar quantity.  

The expression for the speed is given as follows:

speed=DistanceTimeInterval 鈥� (i)

03

Determination of the distance moved during the blackout.

First, convert the speed of the ball fromkm/htom/s . The speed of the ball can be written as,

Speed=303km/h=303脳518m/s=84.167m/s

From equation (i), the distance covered during the blackout is,

顿颈蝉迟补苍肠别=厂辫别别诲脳罢颈尘别颈苍迟别谤惫补濒=84.167尘/蝉脳100脳10-3s鈮�8.42m

Thus, the distance ball moved during the blackout is 8.42m..

Question: An automobile driver increases the speed at a constant rate from 25 km.hrto 55 km/hrin 0.50 min. A bicycle rider speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 30 km/hr in 0.50 min. What are the magnitudes of (a) the driver鈥檚 acceleration and (b) the rider鈥檚 acceleration?

A ton is a measure of volume frequently used in shipping, but that use requires some care because there are at least three types of tons: A displacement ton is equal to 7 barrels bulk, a freight ton is equal to 8 barrels bulk, and a register ton is equal to 20 barrels bulk. A barrel bulk is another measure of volume: 1barrelbulk=0.1415m3. Suppose you spot a shipping order for 鈥�73 tons鈥� ofM&Mcandies, and you are certain that the client who sent the order intended 鈥渢on鈥� to refer to volume (instead of weight or mass, as discussed in Chapter 5). If the client actually meant displacement tons, how many extra U.S. bushels of the candies will you erroneously ship if you interpret the order as (a) 73 freight tons and (b) 73 register tons? (1m3=28.378U.S. bushels.)

Suppose that, while lying on a beach near the equator watching the Sunset over a calm ocean, you start a stopwatch just as the top of the Sun disappears. You then stand, elevating your eyes by a height H = 1.70 m, and stop the watch when the top of the Sun again disappears. If the elapsed time is t = 11.1 s, what is the radius r of Earth?

Until 1883, every city and town in the United States kept its own local time. Today, travelers reset their watches only when the time change equals 1.0 h. How far, on the average, must you travel in degrees of longitude between the time-zone boundaries at which your watch must be reset by 1.0 h? (Hint: Earth rotates 360掳 in about 24 h.)

Question: Earth is approximately a sphere of radius6.37脳106m. What are (a) its circumference in kilometers, (b) its surface area in square kilometers, and (c) its volume in cubic kilometers?
