The time a basketball player spends in the air when shooting a basket is called the​ "hang time." the vertical leap l measured i

n feet is related to the hang time t measured in seconds by the equation lequals=4t2. suppose that a basketball player has a vertical leap of 4 feet 4 inches. find the hang time for this leap.

I believe that L is in feet while t is in seconds. To find for the hang time, all we have to do is to plug in the value of L in feet in the equation.

4 inches is equivalent to 4/12 feet or 0.33 feet, therefore the total L is:

L = 4.33 ft

Using the equation to find for t:

L = 4 t^2

4.33 = 4 t^2

<span>t = 1.04 s</span>

A major league pitcher can throw a baseball with a kinetic energy of 150 J. How much work must the pitcher do to the ball to giv
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

A= 150 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

The formula for kinetic energy is ;

K.E = 1/2 * m *v²  where m is mass and v is velocity

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W= Δ K.E

Given that K.E = 150 J

Taking that the ball was stationary before it was thrown, this makes its initial kinetic energy to be 0 J so the work done will be

W=  Δ K.E

W= 150 - 0

W= 150 J

Why is thermal energy from the Sun transferred to Earth through electromagnetic waves instead of any other type of thermal energ
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are defined as the waves that are created due to the vibrations between a magnetic field and an electric field.

Earth atmosphere is made up of several gases and spaces between them. Thermal energy from the sun require to pass through space by electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space and that is why other type of waves are unable to transfer thermal energy.

Hence, the correct answer is "Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space".

A 1250kg car driving 1200km to Florida in 19.5 hours gets a speeding ticket for traveling 120km/h in Turbeville South Carolina.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

v = 61.54 km/h

Explanation:

The average speed of the car can be found by using the total distance covered by the car and the total time taken for that distance to be traveled. Therefore, the average speed of the car can be found by the following formula:

v = \frac{d}{t}\\

where,

v = average speed during the trip = ?

d = total distance driven by the car = 1200 km

t = time taken for the traveling = 19.5 hr

Therefore,

v = \frac{1200\ km}{19.5\ hr}\\\\

<u>v = 61.54 km/h</u>
