While trying out for the position of pitcher on your high school baseball team, you throw a fastball at 87.6 mi/h toward home pl

ate, which is 18.4 m away. how far does the ball drop due to effects of gravity by the time it reaches home plate? (ignore any effects due to air resistance and assume you throw the ball horizontally.)?

A horizontal 2.00\ m2.00 m long, 5.00\ kg5.00 kg uniform beam that lies along the east-west direction is acted on by two forces.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: 240\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Length of beam l=2\ m

mass of beam m=5\ kg

Two forces of equal intensity acted in the opposite direction, therefore, they create a torque of magnitude

\tau =F\times l=200\times 2=400\ N.m

Also, the beam starts rotating about its center

So, the moment of inertia of the beam is

I=\dfrac{ml^2}{12}=\dfrac{5\times 2^2}{12}\\\\I=\dfrac{5}{3}\ kg.m^2

Torque is the product of moment of inertia and angular acceleration

\Rightarrow \tau=I\alpha\\\\\Rightarrow 400=\dfrac{5}{3}\times \alpha\\\\\Rightarrow \alpha =240\ rad/s^2

Gravity is a non contact force , jump from a little high place (don't do that :P) , you wont just get stuck in the air you will fall down , this is gravity you dont need any contact

The velocity of a car changes from 20 m/s east to 5 m/s east in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car?
Klio2033 [76]
acceleration =  \frac{ v_{2}- v_{1}  }{t} = \frac{5-20}{5} =-3m/s^{2}
