Answer:

a)  U = 735 J , b) U = 125.7 J , c)   U = 0 J

Explanation:

The gravitational power energy is

      U = mg y - mg y₀

The last value is a constant, for simplicity we can make it zero, if the lowest point is at the origin of the coordinate system, which in this case we will place in the lowest part

a) Rope is horizontal

The height in this case is the same length of the rope

     y = 2.10 m

    w = mg = 350 N

    U = 350 2.10

    U = 735 J

b) when the angle is 34º

     y = L - L cos 34

    y = L (1- cos34)

    y = 2.10 (1- cos 34)

    y = 0.359 m

    U = 350 0.359

    U = 125.7 J

c) in this case this point coincides with the reference system

     y = 0

     U = 0 J

If the average pitcher is releasing the ball from a height of 1.8 m above the ground, and the pitcher's mound is 0.2 m higher th
mina [271]

The catcher can catch the ball at a height of 0.96 m from the ground.

The distance between the pitcher's mound and the catcher's box is about 60'6", which translates to 18.44 m. An average pitcher can pitch with speeds ranging from 88 mph to 97 mph, which is from 39.3 m/s to 43.4 m/s.

Assume the pitcher pitches a ball horizontally with a speed of 40 m/s. If the catcher catches the ball in a time t, then the ball travels a horizontal distance x of 18.44 m and at the same time falls through a height y.

The horizontal motion of the ball is uniform motion since no force acts on the ball ( assuming no air resistance) and hence the acceleration of the ball along the horizontal direction is zero.

Therefore,

x=ut

Calculate the time t by substituting 18.44 m for x and 40 m/s for u.

t=\frac{x}{u} \\ =\frac{18.44 m}{40 m/s} \\ =0.461s

The ball is acted upon by the earth's gravitational attraction and hence it accelerates downwards with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity g.

Since a horizontal projection is assumed, the ball has no component of velocity in the downward direction.

Therefore, for vertical motion, which is an accelerated motion, the distance y, the ball falls in the time t taken by it to reach the catcher's box is given by the equation,

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Substitute 9.8 m/s² for g and 0.461 s for t.

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\ y=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(0.461s)^2=1.04 m

The pitcher releases the ball at a height of 1.8 m from a mound which is at a height of 0.2 m. Thus, the ball is released at a height of 2.0 m from the ground. It falls through a distance of 1.04 m in the time it takes to reach the catcher.

Therefore, the height at which the catcher needs to keep his glove so as to catch the ball is given by,(2.0 m)-(1.04 m)=0.96 m

The catcher needs to hold his glove at a height of <u>0,96 m from the ground.</u>

Which force attracts all matter to each other
likoan [24]

Gravity is the force that attracts all matter to each other.

Explanation:

Sir Isaac Newton discovered Gravity when he saw a falling apple while thinking about the forces of nature.

Gravity is a fundamental force that causes objects to have weight. Gravity acts on all matter and is a function of both mass and distance. Each object attracts every other object with a force that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force of attraction is, however, negligible between most objects because of their small size.

Gravitational force is given as:

F = \frac{Gm1m2}{r^{2} }

Where G is gravitational constant and is equal to 6.674×10−11 m³⋅kg⁻¹⋅s⁻²

m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects.

r is the distance between the two objects.

The gravity is what makes an apple fall on the ground and gravity is the force that keeps us on the ground.
