Given:

The mass of the ball is

m=1.23\text{ kg}

The speed of the ball is

\begin{gathered} v=65.8\text{ mi/h} \\  \end{gathered}

Required: calculate the kinetic energy of the baseball

Explanation: to calculate the kinetic energy of a body we will use the formula as

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

first, we convert velocity from mi/h into m/s.

we know that

1\text{ mi=1609.34 m}

and

1\text{ h=3600 sec}

then the velocity is

\begin{gathered} v=\frac{65.8\times1602.34\text{ m}}{3600\text{ s}} \\ v=29.29\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

now plugging all the values in the above formula, we get

\begin{gathered} K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 \\ K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times1.23\text{ kg}\times(29.29\text{ m/s})^2 \\ K.E=527.61\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Thus, the kinetic energy of the baseball is

527.61\text{ J}

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Accuracy

Explanation:

I think accuracy is more important. When it comes to vital organs in the body, the exactness of getting the measurement is paramount. Accuracy deals with getting very close, almost exact you may say, to a known standard. Precision on the other hand, deals with how easy a measurement can be retaken, reproduced or remade, irrespective of how far or close they are from the accepted norm.

From this, we can agree that precision neglects the most important factor, closeness or say, exactness. Precision isn't bothered by it. And while that can be excused in a few instances, it certainly can not be permitted when it comes to life, or organs of the body

Technician A says that the battery must be in good condition and at least 75% charged to accurately test an alternator. Technici
aalyn [17]

Answer:Technician A

Explanation:

Technician A statement is correct as  

The battery is required to start the vehicle which, in effect, rotates the alternator at sufficient speed to keep the battery charged. This means if the battery is low it is not possible to start the vehicle and thus we are unable to test the alternator.  

That is the battery is pre-requisite to test the alternator. So the battery must be at least a 75 % charge to test the alternator.
