If the average pitcher is releasing the ball from a height of 1.8 m above the ground, and the pitcher's mound is 0.2 m higher th

an the rest of the baseball field, at what height would the catcher need to hold his glove to catch the pitched ball? (Note: neglect air resistance, estimate the acceleration due to gravity as 10 m/s2, and assume the pitcher is only throwing the ball horizontally.)A. 2.0 m above the groundB. 1.8 m above the groundC. 0.5 m above the groundD. 0.2 m above the ground

Answer: A. 2.0m above ground

Explanation:

Height of the pitcher from the floor of his mound = 1.8m

Height of the mound above the rest of the field = 0.2m

Since the height difference between the mound and the ground the catcher stands on = 0.2m and the pitcher throws the ball horizontally, then the catcher has to hold his glove at (1.8 + 0.2)m

above ground.

= 2.0m above ground (option A)

Explain in detail what happens to the Earths surface after an earthquake due to the force of tension
irga5000 [103]
After the two plates Collide the amount of tension is what makes the two plates slip. When two plates slip the Earths surface begins to move because of the slipping of the plates thats when we feel an earth quake. After the earth quake is finshed the tension between the two plates happen again so the Earths surface may be cracked as a result of the immense slipping. But the tension will happen again and devolpe slowly over time. Intill it happens again almost like a cycle

A turtle accelerates from a stop at 3m/s/s to the South for 8s. What is the turtle’s final velocity? Show your work and include
andrey2020 [161]

He's accelerating at 3 m/s² .  That means his speed is increasing by 3 m/s every second.At the end of 8 seconds, his speed is (8 x 3 m/s)  =  24 m/s .He's been moving south for the whole 8 seconds.So at the end of that time, his velocity is                          24 m/s south .
