A baseball pitcher loosens up his pitching arm. He tosses a 0.20-kg ball using only the rotation of his forearm, 0.28 m in lengt

aev [14]

Answer:

Moment of Inertia, I = 0.016 kgm²

Explanation:

Mass of the ball, m = 0.20 kg

Length of the pitcher's arm, l = 0.28

Radius of the circular arc, r = 0.28 m

Moment of Inertia is given by the formula:

I = mr²

I = 0.20 * 0.28²

I = 0.20 * 0.0784

I = 0.01568

I = 0.016 kgm²

The distance between the earth and sun is 1.5 x 108 kilometers and the speed of light is 3.00 x 108 meters per second. Calculate

butalik [34]

Answer:

time = 8.3333 minutes.

Explanation:

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 * $10^{8}km$

speed of light = 3* $10^{8}m/s$

convert the distance unit from km to m so we can have uniform units.

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 * $10^{8}*1000$ m

distance between earth and sun = 1.5 * $10^{11}$ m

speed = distance /time

time = distance / speed

time = $\frac{1.5*10^{11} }{3*10^{8} }$

$= 0.5*10^{3}$

time =500 sec

time = 500/60 minutes

time = 8.3333 minutes.

The equatorial diameter of venus is 7,523 miles. if a mile equals 1.609 km, what is venus's diameter in kilometers?

polet [3.4K]

The diameter of venus in km is 12104.507Km.

<h3 /><h3>What is Unit conversion?</h3>

By definition, unit conversion refers to the division or multiplication operation used to convert measurements of the same quantity between various units. The act of converting something from one form to another in mathematics, such as from inches to millimetres or from litres to gallons, is known as conversion.

the diameter of venus = 7,523 miles

1 mile = 1.609 km

so,

diameter of venus = 7523 × 1.609 Km

= 12104.507Km

For the sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.

<h3>What is effect of density of a medium on wavelength of a wave?</h3>

The density of a medium is directly proportional to the wavelength of a wave.

The higher the density of the medium, the longer the wavelength of a wave.

Therefore, for a sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.
