They have the same velocity because their displacements (shortest line from point A to point B, which is a straight line) are the same and they meet at the same time.

Answer:

The batter and the fly ball have the same average velocity, i.e. no individual velocity is greater than the other.

Explanation:

First of all, it is worthy of note that in a baseball game, when the batter hits the ball, he is expected to immediately make a run in an attempt to catch the ball, by so doing, the batter has a greater chance of catching the ball before it hits the ground  and this is exactly what the batter has done in this practice.

1. The fly ball is hit and the batter runs immediately , this means the batter and the fly ball have the same start time t.

2. The batter catches the fly ball after certain time i.e. the same end time.

3. The batter runs in a straight line to catch the ball i.e. the displacement of both batter and fly ball from hit point to catch point is the same.

MATHEMATICALLY

D_{batter}  = D_{fly ball}

t_{batter}  = t_{fly ball}

Where D = Displacement and t = time

Average velocity  V = \frac{D}{t}

Where D_{batter}  = D_{fly ball}

and

t_{batter}  = t_{fly ball}

This means V_{batter}  = V_{fly ball}

What change happens when matter<br> changes states?
Snowcat [4.5K]
Matter either loses or absorbs energy when it changes from one state to another. For example, when matter changes from a liquid to a solid, it loses energy. The opposite happens when matter changes from a solid to a liquid. For a solid to change to a liquid, matter must absorb energy from its surroundings.

What figure represents a longitudinal figure
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

5. No matter what month and date your birthday is on, NASA says it has a significant picture from
padilas [110]

Answer:

The Hubble space telescope.

Explanation:

Hubble is a telescope that observers the sky 24/7 non-stop, which means that for every day of the year it would have made a significant discovery, which of course includes your birthday. Furthermore, you can actually go to NASA website and find out what discovery was made on your birthday! This shows both the vastness of the universe <em>(it really has to be huge for a telescope to have a discovery for each day of the year!) </em> and the ceaseless work of the telescope!

If the kinetic energy of a given mass is to be doubled, its speed must be multiplied by
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Either B or D. The answer itself is 2.

Explanation:

The equation for the kinetic energy would be 1/2*mv^2.

When m is doubled, we can plug in 1 and 2 to compare our answers.

Plugging in 1 for mass would give us the answer 1/2*v^2.

Plugging in 2 for mass would give us v^2. This means that the velocity was multiplied by 2, meaning that the answer is it is multiplied by 2.

I am not sure which answer is correct since there seems to be two answer choices with 2 in it, but the answer is either B or D (I will call it ABCD because I do not want to cause confusion by saying 2 multiple times).
