Answer:

17.15 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Maximum height (h) = 15 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = –9.8 m/s² (since the ball is going again gravity)

Initial velocity (u) =.?

The initial velocity with which the baseball pitcher threw the ball can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

0² = u² + (2 × –9.8 × 15)

0 = u² + (–294)

0 = u² – 294

Collect like terms

0 + 294 = u²

294 = u²

Take the square root of both side

u = √294

u = 17.15 m/s

Therefore, the baseball pitcher threw the ball with an initial velocity of 17.15 m/s

Verdich [7]

Answer:

V = 20 miles /sec

Explanation:

We have remaining distance   =  d  = 96 miles

Lets call  Pascal velocity  V in miles per hour

Now if he increases his velocity by  50 % (equivalent to multiply by 1.5 ) he will need a time t₁ to arrive then as V = d/t

1.5* V  = d/ t₁      ⇒   1.5 * V  =  96 /t₁

And in the case of reducing his velocity

(V / 4) = d/ (t₁ + 16 )     ⇒  V * (t₁ + 16 ) = 4*d     ⇒ V*t₁ + 16*V = 384

So we a 2 equation system with two uknown variables

1.5*V = 96/t₁      (1)

V*t₁  + 16*V = 384     (2)

We solve  from equation    (1)      t₁  = 64/V

And by substitution   in equation (2)

V * (64/V) + 16* V = 384

64  + 16 *V  = 384         ⇒   16*V = 320      ⇒  V= 320/16

V = 20 miles /sec

During nuclear fission and fusion, matter that seems to disappear is actually converted into
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Energy (I need one more brainlist can i has?)

Explanation:

- Nuclear fusion occurs when two light nuclei fuse together into a heavier nucleus

- Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei

In both processes, the mass of the products is always smaller than the mass of the initial nuclei. This means that part of the initial mass has been converted into something else: into energy, which is released in the process.

The amount of energy released in the process can be calculated by using the famous Einstein's equivalence:

where m is the difference between the mass of the product and the initial mass of the nuclei, and c is the speed of light.
