Answer:
The time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the baseball, u = 45 m/s
horizontal distance between the pitcher and the batter, X = 18.39 m
The horizontal distance or range of a projectile is given as;
X = ut
where;
t is the time of flight
u is the initial velocity
t = X / u
t = 18.39 / 45
t = 0.41 s
Therefore, the time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.
I'm Pretty sure it's FRICTION
Answer:
Red
Explanation:
I looked at the picture...where it says red is 700
An interesting problem, and thanks to the precise heading you put for the question.
We will assume zero air resistance.
We further assume that the angle with vertical is t=53.13 degrees, corresponding to sin(t)=0.8, and therefore cos(t)=0.6.
Given:
angle with vertical, t = 53.13 degrees
sin(t)=0.8; cos(t)=0.6;
air-borne time, T = 20 seconds
initial height, y0 = 800 m
Assume g = -9.81 m/s^2
initial velocity, v m/s (to be determined)
Solution:
(i) Determine initial velocity, v.
initial vertical velocity, vy = vsin(t)=0.8v
Using kinematics equation,
S(T)=800+(vy)T+(1/2)aT^2 ....(1)
Where S is height measured from ground.
substitute values in (1): S(20)=800+(0.8v)T+(-9.81)T^2 =>
v=((1/2)9.81(20^2)-800)/(0.8(20))=72.625 m/s for T=20 s
(ii) maximum height attained by the bomb
Differentiate (1) with respect to T, and equate to zero to find maximum
dS/dt=(vy)+aT=0 =>
Tmax=-(vy)/a = -0.8*72.625/(-9.81)= 5.9225 s
Maximum height,
Smax
=S(5.9225)
=800+(0.8*122.625)*(5.9225)+(1/2)(-9.81)(5.9225^2)
= 972.0494 m
(iii) Horizontal distance travelled by the bomb while air-borne
Horizontal velocity = vx = vcos(t) = 0.6v = 43.575 m/s
Horizontal distace travelled, Sx = (vx)T = 43.575*20 = 871.5 m
(iv) Velocity of the bomb when it strikes ground
vertical velocity with respect to time
V(T) =vy+aT...................(2)
Substitute values, vy=58.1 m/s, a=-9.81 m/s^2
V(T) = 58.130 + (-9.81)T =>
V(20)=58.130-(9.81)(20) = -138.1 m/s (vertical velocity at strike)
vx = 43.575 m/s (horizontal at strike)
resultant velocity = sqrt(43.575^2+(-138.1)^2) = 144.812 m/s (magnitude)
in direction theta = atan(43.575,138.1)
= 17.5 degrees with the vertical, downward and forward. (direction)
