Biography

My name is Rodrigo Diaz-Meneses and I am currently enrolled in a General Science degree with minors in Math and Physics. I plan to pursue an career as a high school teacher after completing my degree, and I want to teach Physics, Math, Chemistry or General Science. I have always liked helping others understand concepts that they find difficult, so that they can enjoy and comprehend the subject better. I have tutored some of my friends throughout high school and university, but I have not been an official tutor yet. I look forward to helping others and being part of Numerade.
Thank you for your time.

A pitcher claims he can throw a baseball with as much momentum as a $3.00-\mathrm{g}$ bullet moving with a speed of $1500 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. A baseball has a mass of $0.145 \mathrm{~kg}$. What must be its speed if the pitcher's claim is valid?

Fundamentals of Physics

Two blocks of masses $M$ and $3 M$ are placed on a horizontal, frictionless surface. A light spring is attached to one of them, and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them (Fig. P9.6). A cord initially holding the blocks together is burned; after this, the block of mass $3 M$ moves to the right with a speed of $2.00 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. (a) What is the speed of the block of mass $M$ ?
(b) Find the original elastic energy in the spring if $M=$ $0 . .350 \mathrm{~kg}$

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from zero to $5.20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ in $0.832 \mathrm{~s}$. What linear impulse and average force does a $70.0-\mathrm{kg}$ passenger in the car experience?
