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)

The height of a projectile t seconds after it is launched straight up in the air is given by f (t )equals negative 16 t squared
velikii [3]

Answer:

\displaystyle a(5)=-32

Explanation:

<u>Instant Acceleration</u>

The kinetic magnitudes are usually related as scalar or vector equations. By doing so, we are assuming the acceleration is constant over time. But when the acceleration is variable, the relations are in the form of calculus equations, specifically using derivatives and/or integrals.

Let f(t) be the distance traveled by an object as a function of the time t. The instant speed v(t) is defined as:

\displaystyle v(t)=\frac{df}{dt}

And the acceleration is

\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}

Or equivalently

\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{d^2f}{d^2t}

The given height of a projectile is

f(t)=-16t^2 +238t+3

Let's compute the speed

\displaystyle v(t)=-32t+238

And the acceleration

\displaystyle a(t)=-32

It's a constant value regardless of the time t, thus

\boxed{\displaystyle a(5)=-32}

How much charge does a 9.0 v battery transfer from the negative to the positive terminal while doing 45 j of work?
bija089 [108]

Here is your answer

5 coulomb

REASON :

We know that

Potential difference, V= W/q

where, W is work done

and, q is magnitude of charge

Given,

V= 9.0 v and W= 45 J

So,

using above relation, we get

9= 45/q

q= 45/9

q= 5 coulomb
