The acceleration of a baseball pitcher's hand as he delivers a pitch is extreme. For a professional player, this acceleration ph

ase lasts only 50 ms, during which the ball's speed increases from 0 to about 90 mph, or 40 m/s.
What is the force of the pitcher's hand on the 0.145 kg ball during this acceleration phase? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

116 N.

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the ball, m = 0.145 Kg

initial speed = 0 m/s

Final speed = 40 m/s

time = 50 ms = 0.05 s

Force is equal to change in momentum per unit time

F = \dfrac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}

F = \dfrac{0.145(40-0)}{0.05}

F = 116 N

Force of the pitcher hand on the ball is equal to 116 N.

How do you transfer kinetic energy to electrical energy using a generator system
san4es73 [151]

Answer: so when a turbine converts the K.E and the potential of any moving fluid (more likely liquid or gas) to energy. once the proc is started the turbine generato, the fluid such as water, steam, combus gasses, or air pushes s big series of blades that have mounted on a shaft, which then will rotate the shaft that’s conn to the generator

The Hubble Space Telescope orbits the Earth at approximately 612,000m altitude. Its mass is 11,100 kg and the mass of earth is 5
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

7.55 km/s

Explanation:

The force of gravity between the Earth and the Hubble Telescope corresponds to the centripetal force that keeps the telescope in uniform circular motion around the Earth:

G\frac{mM}{R^2}=m\frac{v^2}{R}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m=11,100 kg is the mass of the telescope

M=5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

R=r+h=6.38\cdot 10^6 m+612,000 m=6.99\cdot 10^6 m is the distance between the telescope and the Earth's centre (given by the sum of the Earth's radius, r, and the telescope altitude, h)

v = ? is the orbital velocity of the Hubble telescope

Re-arranging the equation and substituting numbers, we find the orbital velocity:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg)}{6.99\cdot 10^6 m}}=7548 m/s=7.55 km/s
