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.

levacccp [35]
Ok to distinguish the difference you just find out why there's science lol.......anyways.....Mass is the amount of space being taken up in a certain place (or possibly all the world) and weight is the heaviness of an person or thing kk??? also if my answer was best, plzz give brainliest (trust me i need it) Have a great day and Christmas (if u celebrate it)!!

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion? *

No
For example a rock was broken into one big and one little piece. The properties of these 2 pieces are still the same even though they have different shapes.

From the top of a cliff, a person tosses a pebble straight downward with an initial velocity of -9.0 meters/second. After 0.50 s
Irina-Kira [14]
Y - yo = Vo*t - g * (t^2) / 2

Vo = - 9.0 m/s
t = 0.50 s

=> y - yo = -9.0 m/s * 0.5 s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (0.5s)^2 / 2 = - 4.5m - 1.225m = - 5.725 m.
