A pitcher throws a curveball that reaches the catcher in 0.64 s. The ball curves because it is spinning at an average angular ve

locity of 290 rev/min (assumed constant) on its way to the catcher's mitt. What is the angular displacement of the baseball (in radians) as it travels from the pitcher to the catcher?

Answer:

\Delta \theta=19.44\ rad

Explanation:

We just have to calculate what angular displacement a ball with an average angular velocity of 290 rev/min experiments in 0.64s. By definition, angular velocity \omega is the angular displacement \Delta \theta divided by the time elapsed:

\omega=\frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}

Since 1\ rev=2\pi \ rad and 1\ min=60\ s, we can covert:

\omega=290\ rev/min=\frac{290\ rev}{min}(\frac{1\ min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1\ rev})=30.37\ rad/s

Where the terms between parenthesis are equal to 1, so they just change the units. Then for our values we have:

\Delta \theta=\omega \Delta t=(30.37\ rad/s)(0.64s)=19.44\ rad

Acceleration is always measured in meters per second squared. Why is acceleration not measured in meters per second like speed?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.

Explanation:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.

The vector product of vectors A⃗ and B⃗ has magnitude 12.0 m2 and is in the +z-direction.Vector A⃗ has magnitude 4.0 m and is in
g100num [7]

Answer:

θ=180°

Explanation:

The problem says that the vector product of A and B is in the +z-direction, and that the vector A is in the -x-direction. Since vector B has no x-component, and is perpendicular to the z-axis (as A and B are both perpendicular to their vector product), vector B has to be in the y-axis.

Using the right hand rule for vector product, we can test the two possible cases:

  • If vector B is in the +y-axis, the product AxB should be in the -z-axis. Since it is in the +z-axis, this is not correct.

  • If vector B is in the -y-axis, the product AxB should be in the +z-axis. This is the correct option.

Now, the problem says that the angle θ is measured from the +y-direction to the +z-direction. This means that the -y-direction has an angle of 180° (half turn).

Read the paragraph below and answer the question that follows:
elena-s [515]

B. Helium because it is constantly being made in the sun

Explanation:

From the given paragraph, we can conclude that helium is the most common element in a star such as the sun because it is constantly being made.

In the nuclear fusion process that results in the production of helium, hydrogen nuclei are the reactants and helium is the product.

  • since the reactants are constantly being used in the core of the sun, this suggests that the products must be more.
  • The reaction requires a high temperature and pressure to initiate.
  • It is a series of chain reaction that uses a fuel of hydrogen to produce helium.
