Answer:

Let's say the pitcher is angry or just has a really heavy hand while throwing this ball, and now you have to catch it, otherwise it's going to ram into your face. When you put your hands up just in time to catch this ball, this is called impulse, or commonly expressed as a reflex. Depending on what kind of ball is being thrown, such as a golf ball, baseball, basketball, beach-ball, rubber-ball, baseball, etc. ... the weight of the ball itself is going to impact how much it i going to hurt when you catch it without any hand protection. However, if you're catching, let's say a baseball, with a padded glove, it is not going to hurt as bad as catching the baseball bare handed, because the padded glove has enough padding in it to create a barrier between the skin of your hand and the palm of the glove.

A projectile is launched with an initial velocity 60m/s at an angle 60° to the vertical. What the magnitude of it's displacement
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

the magnitude of the displacement after 5s is 137.31 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 60 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 60°

time of motion, t = 5s

the vertical component of the velocity, u_y= u\ sin \theta = 60sin(60^0)

The magnitude of the displacement after 5s is calculated as;

h = u_yt -\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 60sin (60^0)\times 5 - \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(5)^2\\\\h = 259.81-122.5\\\\h = 137.31 \ m

Therefore, the magnitude of the displacement after 5s is 137.31 m.
