Estimate the average force that a baseball pitcher's hand exerts on a 0.145-kg baseball as he throws a 40-m/s pitch. Assume the

pitcher accelerates the ball through a distance of 3.0 m, from behind his body to where the ball is released and ignore the air resistance.

Answer:

38.67 N

Explanation:

v = Final velocity = 40 m/s

u = Initial velocity

m = Mass of ball = 0.145kg

s = Displacement of ball = 3 m

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{40^2-0^2}{2\times 3}=\frac{800}{3}\ m/s^2

F=ma

\\\Rightarrow F=0.145\times \frac{800}{3}\\\Rightarrow F=38.67\ N

∴ Average force that a baseball pitcher's hand exerts on the ball is 38.67 N

Answer:

Force, F = 38.66 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg

Initial speed of the baseball, u = 0

Final speed of the baseball, v = 40 m/s

Distance covered, d = 3 m

Let a is the acceleration of the baseball. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}

a=\dfrac{(40)^2}{2\times 3}

a=266.66\ m/s^2

Let F is the average force that a baseball pitcher's hand exerts on a baseball. Using the second equation of motion to find it :

F=m\times a

F=0.145\ kg\times 266.66\ m/s^2

F = 38.66 N

So, the average force a baseball pitcher's hand exerts on a baseball is 38.66 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Find the voltage across the 15 Q resistor.<br> [?] V<br><br> No links please
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

same idea as before Liam,  first, find the parallel resistance in 35 || 20

(35*20)  / (35+20)  = 700 / 55  = 12.727272 ohms

now add the  12.727272 + 15 = 27.727272 ohms total resistance

V = IR

10 = I *    27.727272

10 / 27.727272 = I

0.360655 = I

V = IR  (again, but across the 15 ohm resistor)

V =     0.360655 * 15      

V = 5.4098

Naddik [55]

Answer:

d. lower than the original pitch and decreasing as he falls.

Explanation:

As per the Doppler effect when the pitch of the sound increases as the source approaches the observer and decreases as the source moves away. A classic example of this increasing pitch of ambulance siren as it approaches you and decreasing pitch of the siren as it goes away from you.

The same effect is applicable here as well. As the character keep falling, it is moving away from the observer so the pitch of his scream will keep on decreasing.
