a baseball pitcher throws a fastball at 98 mph. he also has a slower "changeup" pitch, 75 mph, which he throws identically, same

windup and same release angle from shoulder height. which pitch gets to home plate with a flatter trajectory.......... i.e, velocity vector closer to horizontal

Answer:

For these reasons at 98 mph the path is straighter

Explanation:

To solve this problem we are going to use the kinematic equations, specifically those of projectile launches, let's calculate the distances that the ball travels

     

          X = Vox t

          Y = Yo +  Voy t - ½ g t²

They tell us that the only parameter that changes is the speed, so the distance to the plate is known

          t = Vox / x

 

We replace

         Y- Yo = Voy (Vox / X) - ½ g (Vox / x)²2

       Y -Yo = Vo² sinθ cos θ / x - ½ g Vo² sin²θ / x²

        Y -Yo = Vo² (sinθ cosθ / x - ½ g sin²θ / x²)

The trajectory will be flatter when Y is as close as possible to Yo, when examining the right side of the equation, the amount in Parentheses is constant and to what they tell us that the angles and the distance the plate does not change.

Consequently, of the above, the only amount changes is the initial speed if it increases the square of the same increases, so that the height Y approaches the height of the shoulder, that is, DY decreases. For these reasons at 98 mph the path is straighter

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

A ball falls off of a 3m tall shelf. How long will it take for the
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

0.8s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of shelf  = 3m

Unknown:

Time it will take to hit the ground  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

         x  = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt²  

x is the height

u is the initial velocity  = 0m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8m/s²

t is the time taken  = ?

Now insert the parameters and solve for t;

    3  = (0 x t) +( \frac{1}{2} x 9.8 x t²)

    3 = 4.9t²

       t² = 0.6

       t = 0.8s

Convert the speed of light 3.0x10^8 m/s to km/day
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: 2.592 \times 10^{8}km/day

1 m = 0.001 km\\ 1 s= 1.157\times10^{-5} days\\ 1 m/s = \frac {0.001}{1.157\times10^{-5}} km/day = 86.4 km/day \\ 3.0\times 10^{8} m/s = 3.0\times 10^{8} m/s \times \frac {86.4 km/day}{1m/s} =2.592 \times 10^{8}km/day
