What did everyone in America think they ought to have a chance to be after WWII?

In thinking about the events of World War II, the impact of Major League Baseball on American society during the war is probably not one of the first topics that come to mind.

Unlike major leaders or battles, the sport may not have directly impacted the outcome on the battlefield, yet it made a valuable contribution on the home front and American morale that cannot be overlooked.

During this grim period, when young Americans went off to war and all citizens were required to make sacrifices, one constant remained—Major League Baseball. It allowed Americans to enjoy sense of normalcy and of entertainment for citizens of every age.

Thanks to President Roosevelt’s Green Light Letter, which gave baseball a much needed an endorsement, the game continued to be played throughout the war.

Despite the fact that Major League Baseball’s level of play was statistically lower during the war, the game’s popularity increased, reflecting the country’s embrace of baseball as the true national pastime.

a piece of clay with mass m is traveling with an unknown velocity in the positive x-direction, when it collides and sticks to a

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

$5\ \text{m/s}$

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of clay = m

$m_2$ = Mass of block = 3m

$u$ = Velocity of clay

$v$ = Velocity of block = -3 m/s

$v_c$ = Velocity of combined mass = -1 m/s

As mometum in the system is conserved we get

$m_1u+m_2v=(m_1+m_2)v_c\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v_c-m_2v}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{(m+3m)\times -1-3m\times -3}{m}\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{5m}{5}\\\Rightarrow u=5\ \text{m/s}$

The original velocity of the clay mass was $5\ \text{m/s}$ .

One face of a cube-shaped package has an area of 5 square inches. What is the lateral

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

LSA of a cube = 100 in²

Explanation:

Let the area of the cube be a.

Given the following data;

a = 5 in²

To find the lateral surface area;

We know that a cube has four faces and as such the lateral surface area would be the area of the four faces.

Lateral surface area (LSA) of a cube = 4a²

Substituting into the equation, we have;

LSA of a cube = 4*5²

LSA of a cube = 4*25

LSA of a cube = 100 in²

Therefore, the lateral surface area of the package is 100 square inches.

PLEASE HELP! DUE IN 10 MIN Describe how the process of sampling, RGB pixels, and binary sequences work together to display a dig

Delicious77 [7]

Explanation:

"Pixel" is short for "picture element."

An image can be described in digital form by any of several methods. When RGB pixels are used, each pixel in the image is coded as three 8-bit binary values. Typically, a binary value of 00000000 corresponds to none of the associated color (red, green, or blue), and a binary value of 11111111 corresponds to the maximum amount of the associated color. The amount of the color used to render the pixel is proportional to the binary value.*

A pixel, coded as three 8-bit color values, is a sample of the image. The proportion of the image represented depends on the resolution, typically expressed as a number of horizontal or vertical pixels per image. An image may be 4096 pixels wide and 3072 pixels high, for example, so would consist of about 12.6 million samples. Some coding schemes associate a linear measurement with the size of a pixel: 160 pixels per inch means the the image just described would be rendered 25.6 inches wide by 19.2 inches high. Depending on the rendering device, a pixel may or may not be square. (Resolution in one direction may differ from that in another direction.)

In a camera, the incoming light is sampled by circuits sensitive to the different colors. The output from those circuits is digitized and combined appropriately so that the RGB values for a given pixel represent the same location in the image.

In a rendering device, the various color-producing processes are aligned (registered) so that the red, green, and blue values are combined appropriately at the proper spot in the image. There may be additional processing to take into account the color-rendering characteristics of the device used. That is, there may be some non-linearity between the RGB values for a pixel and the amount of light or pigment produced by the rendering device. The purpose of this is to ensure that the colors produced are as close as possible to the colors in the original scene captured by the camera.

In short, a camera or computer represents the pixels in a scene by binary values representing the red, green, and blue (RGB) components of the color at a point. Those binary values are interpreted by a rendering device (display or printer) to reproduce the original color as nearly as possible.
