Astudent swings a bat horizontally, making contact with a ball thrown to her. the ball leaves the bat, and the bat continues moving through the rest of the swing. which of the following statements describes the change in energy necessary to do work on the ball?

1. consider the case in which air fills air shocks on a truck trailer. the pressure in the shocks is 2 mpa. the temperature is 300 k. the diameter of the shock piston is 10 cm and the initial length of the cylindrical cavity containing the compressed air is 40 cm. a. the truck is gradually loaded over a period of a day in a static setting. the temperature is held constant for the atmosphere and thus for the gas shock. calculate the compressibility of the air in the shock for this condition when the truck is initially being loaded. b. if the shocks were loaded in a dynamic setting by driving over bumps, what would be the compressibility? state your assumption. c. what is the initial load on the shock if the shock is in an atmospheric 100 kpa? d. if the shock is compressed using the process described in part a, and the air shock compressed air cavity length decreases to 20 cm, what is the additional load applied to the shock?

An object is 10 cm from the mirror, its height is 1 cm and the focal length is 5 cm. what is the image height? (indicate the object orientation by including the + or - sign with the answer.) hi = cm +1 -1 +10 -10
