To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

Here,
M = Mass
R = Radius of the hoop
The precession frequency is given as

Here,
M = Mass
g= Acceleration due to gravity
d = Distance of center of mass from pivot
I = Moment of inertia
= Angular velocity
Replacing the value for moment of inertia


The value for our angular velocity is not in SI, then


Replacing our values we have that


The precession frequency is




Therefore the precession period is 5.4s
The Impulse delivered to the baseball is 89 kgm/s.
To solve the problem above, we use the formula of impulse.
⇒ Formula:
- I = m(v-u)................. Equation 1
Where:
- I = Impulse delivered to the baseball
- m = mass of the baseball
- v = Final velocity of the baseball
- u = initial speed of the baseball
From the question,
⇒ Given:
- m = 0.8 kg
- u = 67 m/s
- v = -44 m/s
⇒ Substitute these values into equation 1
- I = 0.8(-44-67)
- I = 0.8(-111)
- I = -88.8
- I ≈ -89 kgm/s
Note: The negative tells that the impulse is in the same direction as the final velocity and therefore can be ignored.
Hence, The Impulse delivered to the baseball is 89 kgm/s.

Answer:
A. The project's energy costs will decrease
Explanation:
Since the project is located in an area with a demand-response program and on a site that has enough room for a wind-turbine to allow for on-site renewable energy.
Hence, the project's energy costs will decrease very well because it's implementing both of these strategies;
- Area with demand-response program.
- On-site renewable energy.
Work done = Force x Distance
Force = 10 lb = 44.5 N
Work Done = 44.5 N x 15 m
= 667.5 N-m
