B.) Baseball bat; increases velocity

All third class levers have a mechanical advantage less than 1. Since the output end has a longer distance from the fulcrum than the input point, the output end moves at a greater velocity than the input point. Because of this, third class levers are commonly used when trying to hit an object with as much velocity as possible.

<span>Baseball bat. The handle of the bat is the fulcrum. Exerting a force from the handle supplies the input force just near the middle, while the other end of the baseball bat pushes the ball with the output forces. The input force is greater than the output force but the output load is able to move farther, and this increases the ball's velocity.</span>

Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor 190 cm below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the fi
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Second drop: 1.04 m

First drop: 1.66 m

Explanation:

Assuming the droplets are not affected by aerodynamic drag.

They are in free fall, affected only by gravity.

I set a frame of reference with the origin at the nozzle and the positive X axis pointing down.

We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration.

X(t) = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a *t^2

x0 = 0

a = 9.81 m/s^2

v0 = 0

Then:

X(t) = 4.9 * t^2

The drop will hit the floor when X(t) = 1.9

1.9 = 4.9 * t^2

t^2 = 1.9 / 4.9

t = \sqrt{0.388} = 0.62 s

That is the moment when the 4th drop begins falling.

Assuming they fall at constant interval,

Δt = 0.62 / 3 = 0.2 s (approximately)

The second drop will be at:

X2(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 1*0.2)^2 = 0.86 m

And the third at:

X3(0.62) = 4.9 * (0.62 - 2*0.2)^2 = 0.24 m

The positions are:

1.9 - 0.86 = 1.04 m

1.9 - 0.24 = 1.66 m

above the floor

Natasha2012 [34]
Heat normally travels from areas of higher heat to areas of lower heat. For example, if you were to be in a classroom and all the windows and doors were closed, and then you opened a door, then the reason why the room becomes cooler is not because cold air comes inside the room. However, it is because when you open the door, the heat from the classroom you're in escapes the room. This is why it feels cooler when you open a door, or even a window. Heat is traveling from areas of higher heat to areas of lower heat.
