Professional baseball pitchers deliver pitches that can reach the blazing speed of 100 mph (miles per hour). A local team has dr

afted an up-and-coming, left-handed pitcher who can consistently pitch at 42.91 m/s (96.00 mph) . Assuming a pitched ball has a mass of 0.1434 kg and has this speed just before a batter makes contact with it, how much kinetic energy does the ball have?

Answer: 132.02 J

Explanation:

By definition, the kinetic energy is written as follows:

KE = 1/2 m v²

In our question, we know from the question, the following information:

m = 0.1434 Kg

v= 42.91 m/s

Replacing in the equation for KE, we have:

KE = 1/2 . 0.1434 Kg. (42.91)² m²/s² ⇒ KE = 132.02 N. m = 132.02 J

A centrifuge used in DNA extraction spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm producing a "g-force" on the sample that is 6000 times th
defon

Answer:

A) a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) Δθ = 3665.2 rad

Explanation:

A) From Newton's first equation of motion, we can say that;

a = (ω - ω_o)/t. We are given that the centrifuge spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm.

Let's convert to rad/s = 7000 × 2π/60 = 733.04 rad/s

Thus change in angular velocity = (ω - ω_o) = 733.04 - 0 = 733.04 rad/s

We are given; t = 10 s

Thus;

a = 733.04/10

a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) From Newton's third equation of motion, we can say that;

ω² = ω_o² + 2aΔθ

Where Δθ is angular displacement

Making Δθ the subject;

Δθ = (ω² - ω_o²)/2a

At this point, ω = 0 rad/s while ω_o = 733.04 rad/s

Thus;

Δθ = (0² - 733.04²)/(2 × 73.304)

Δθ = -537347.6416/146.608

Δθ = - 3665.2 rad

We will take the absolute value.

Thus, Δθ = 3665.2 rad
