A baseball player friend of yours wants to determine his pitching speed. you have him stand on a ledge and throw the ball horizo

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Your friend throw the ball horizontally that means the vertical initial

component of velocity is zero ( $u_{y}=0$ ).

The ball is thrown from a height 4 meters above the ground.

The height $h=u_{y}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Remember: the height is negative value because its below the point of

thrown (initial position)

h = -4 m , $u_{y}=0$ and g = -9.8 m/s²(downward)

Substitute these values in the rule above

⇒ $4=0-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}$

⇒ -4 = -4.9t² (multiply both sides by -1)

⇒ 4 = 4.9t² (divide both sides by 4.9)

⇒ 0.81633 = t² (take √ for both sides)

⇒ t = 0.9035

Then the time of the ball to land on the ground is 0.9035 seconds

The range of the ball on the ground is 30 m

The range $R=u_{x}*t$ , where $u_{x}$ is the horizontal

component of the initial velocity

R = 30 meters and t = 0.9035

⇒ $30=u_{x}(0.9035)$ (divide both sides by 0.9035)

⇒ $u_{x}=33.20$ m/s

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

In your own words, explain why sinkholes are very common in Florida. List one use of sinkholes in Florida.

melamori03 [73]

Florida's peninsula is made up of porous carbonate rocks such as limestone When the dirt, clay or sand gets too heavy for the limestone roof, it can break and form a sinkhole. Sinkholes are caused naturally.

dont use my words put this in your own hope it helps you understand it better

A beam of protons enter the electric field of magnitude E = 0.5 N/C between a pair of parallel plates. There is a magnetic field

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

0.217 m/s

Explanation:

The protons in the beam passes undeflected when the electric force is equal to the magnetic force:

qE = qvB

where

q is the proton's charge

E is the magnitude of the electric field

v is the speed of the protons

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field

Re-arranging the equation,

$v=\frac{E}{B}$

And by substituting

E = 0.5 N/C

B = 2.3 T

We find

$v=\frac{0.5}{2.3}=0.217 m/s$

Is the bike rider in the picture above demonstrating kinetic energy or potential energy? you need to explain your answer.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is a function of velocity. Since the rider is moving at a certain speed, he's demonstrating kinetic energy. It can't be potential energy because potential energy encompass mgh

A 150 kg boy and his bike are traveling 12 m/s when he slams on his breaks and stop at his friend’s house. How much impulse is r

Nataly [62]

Answer:

J = 1800 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a boy, m = 150 kg

Initial velocity of a boy, u = 12 m/s

Finally, it stops, v = 0

We need to find the impulse is required to produce this change in momentum. We know that impulse is equal to the change in momentum. So,

$J=m(v-u)\\\\=150\times (0-12)\\\\=-1800\ kg-m/s\\\\|J|=1800\ kg-m/s$

So, the impulse is equal to 1800 kg-m/s
