Answer:

<h2>a) The base baseball was in air for 0.64 seconds.</h2><h2>b) Speed of throwing is 32.89 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

a)Consider the vertical motion of baseball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = ?

         Displacement, s = 2 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      2 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                      t = 0.64 seconds

The base baseball was in air for 0.64 seconds.

b)Consider the horizontal motion of baseball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = ?

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Time, t = 0.64 s      

         Displacement, s= 21 m

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      21 = u x 0.64 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.64²

                      u = 32.89 m/s

      Speed of throwing is 32.89 m/s

Answer:

Gravitation

Explanation:

Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects.

A garden hose having with an internal diameter of 1.1 cm is connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given internal diameter of the garden d_1=1.1cm

Speed of water in the hose is v_1=0.95m/sec

Number of holes n = 22

Diameter of each holes d_2=15cm

According to continuity equation A_1v_1=A_2v_2

d_1^2\times v_1=22\times d_2^2v_2

1.1^2\times 0.95=22\times 0.15^2\times v_2

v_2=2.322m/sec

So water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec
