Answer:
Moment of Inertia, I = 0.016 kgm²
Explanation:
Mass of the ball, m = 0.20 kg
Length of the pitcher's arm, l = 0.28
Radius of the circular arc, r = 0.28 m
Moment of Inertia is given by the formula:
I = mr²
I = 0.20 * 0.28²
I = 0.20 * 0.0784
I = 0.01568
I = 0.016 kgm²
Density = 7.36 grams ÷ (2 cm × 2 cm × 2cm) = 0.92 g/cm^3
Answer: Water can either increase or decrease the friction between surfaces.
