Jackie did 8-12 instead of 12-8
The cold air sinks as it is heavier
<h2>
The baseball drops by 0.64 meter.</h2>
Explanation:
Consider the horizontal motion of ball
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
Initial velocity, u = 44.7 m/s
Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²
Displacement, s = 16.1 m
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
16.1 = 44.7 x t + 0.5 x 0 x t²
t = 0.36 s
Time taken to travel 16.1 m is 0.36 seconds
Now we need to find how much ball travel vertically during this 0.36 seconds.
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s
Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²
Time, t = 0.36 s
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
s = 0 x 0.36 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 0.36²
s = 0.64 m
The baseball drops by 0.64 meter.
