What’s the force of a pitching machine on a baseball? Baseballs pitched by a machine have a horizontal velocity of 30 meters/sec

ond. The machine accelerates the baseball from 0 meters/second to 30 meters/second in 0.5 seconds. If a baseball has a mass of 0.15 kilograms, the force the machine exerts is newtons. Use F = ma, where  .

The acceleration of the baseball is:
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t}
where v_f and v_i are the final and initial speed of the ball, and \Delta t is the time interval in which the force acted.

Replacing the numbers, we get
a= \frac{30 m/s-0m/s}{0.5 s}=60 m/s^2
And at this point, we can use Newton's second law F=ma to find the value of the force of the pitching machine:
F=ma=(0.15 kg)(60 m/s^2)=9 N

If a particle undergoes shm with amplitude 0.21 m, what is the total distance it travels in one period?
Ymorist [56]
If a particle undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 0.21 meters, this means that the maximum displacement of the particle from its resting position is 0.21. For one period, it traveled from its starting position which is twice the amplitude and then back to its original position which is another distance that is twice the amplitude as well. Therefore, the total distance it traveled is 2*amplitude + 2*amplitude = 2*0.21 + 2*0.21 = 0.42 + 0.42 = 0.84 meters.

What are the advantage of so unit​
jeka94

Answer:

The greatest advantage of SI is that it has only one unit for each quantity (type of measurement). This means that it is never necessary to convert from one unit to another (within the system) and there are no conversion factors for students to memorize.

What is the quality of the sound of an ambulance's siren when it moves toward a stationary hearer? What is the quality of the so
Damm [24]

Answer:

A) As the ambulance's siren moves toward a stationary hearer, the quality of sound will have a higher pitch

B) As the ambulance's siren moves away from a stationary hearer, the quality of sound will have a lower pitch.

Explanation:

From Doppler effect, the closer the source of sound gets to the observer, the higher the frequency and in turn the higher the pitch.

Meanwhile, the farther a source goes from an observer, the lower the frequency of the sound and also the lower the pitch.

Thus, as the ambulance's siren moves toward a stationary hearer, the quality of sound will have a higher pitch.

As the ambulance's siren moves away from a stationary hearer, the quality of sound will have a lower pitch.

Is work done when falling towards earth while skydiving???
GuDViN [60]
You betcha !

-- Work is done whenever a force acts through a distance.

-- The skydiver has weight.  That's the force acting on him.

-- As time goes on, I'm assuming that he falls from one height
to a lower height.  That's the distance the force acts through.

-- The work done on him is  (force) times (distance)

                                           (his weight) x (distance he falls).

So where is the machine that does all this work ?

-- It's GRAVITY that does the work on him as he falls.

So how did he get all this energy in the first place ?
Where did it come from ?

-- From the airplane that lifted him up to height from which he jumped !
