A baseball pitcher throws a baseball horizontally at a linear speed of 42.5 m/s (about 95 mi/h). Before being caught, the baseba

ll travels a horizontal distance of 17.4 m and rotates through an angle of 44.1 rad. The baseball has a radius of 3.67 cm and is rotating about an axis as it travels, much like the earth does. What is the tangential speed of a point on the "equator" of the baseball

Answer:

v_t=46.4532\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • Linear horizontal speed of the ball, v_x=42.5\ m.s^{-1}
  • distance travelled by the ball, x=17.4\ m
  • angle rotated by the ball, \theta=44.1\ rad
  • radius of the ball, r=3.67\ cm=0.0367\ m

<u>the time for which the ball travels:</u>

t=\frac{x}{v_x}

t=\frac{17.4}{42.5}

t=0.4094\ s

<u>Angular speed of the ball:</u>

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

\omega=\frac{44.1}{0.4094}

\omega=107.7155\ rad.s^{-1}

<u>Now the tangential speed at the equator of the ball:</u>

v_t=r.\omega+v_x (the tangential speed due to rotation and the linear speed are having the same direction)

v_t=0.0367\times 107.7155+42.5

v_t=46.4532\ m.s^{-1}

Quanto tempo deve ficar ligado um ferro eletrico de 1000 w para que tenha o mesmo consumo de energia que um chuveiro de 4400 w q
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Thus, the time for the first lamp is 44 minutes.

Explanation:

Power of first lamp, P' = 1000 W

Power of second lamp, P'' = 4400 W

time for second lamp, t'' = 10 minutes

Let the time for first lamp is t'.

As the energy is same, so,

P' x t' = P'' x t''

1000 x t' = 4400 x 10

t' = 44 minutes

Ad libitum [116K]

A "screen" or even just a set of parallel bars are highly reflective to electromagnetic waves as long as the open spaces are small compared to the wavelengths.

"Grid" dishes work fine ... with less weight and less wind resistance ... for frequencies below about 3 GHz. (Wavelengths of at least 10 cm.)

(I even worked on a microwave system in South America where huge grid dishes were used on a 90-mile link.)
