A baseball pitcher throws a baseball horizontally at a linear speed of 49.4 m/s. Before being caught, the baseball travels a hor

izontal distance of 24.7 m and rotates through an angle of 52.7 rad. The baseball has a radius of 3.43 cm and is rotating about an axis as it travels, much like the earth does. What is the tangential speed of a point on the "equator" of the baseball?

Answer:

v = 3.61 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that ball travels horizontal distance of 24.7 m with uniform speed 49.4 m/s

so we will have

t = \frac{x}{v_x}

t = \frac{24.7}{49.4}

t = 0.5 s

now in the same time ball is turned by angle

\theta = 52.7 rad

now we know that

\theta = \omega t

52.7 = \omega (0.5)

\omega = 105.4 rad/s

now the tangential speed of a point at equator is given as

v = r\omega

v = 0.0343(105.4)

v = 3.61 m/s

During a normal reaction to a stressful event, muscles are moved to their maximum capacity, and sensitivity is
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The paper focuses on the biology of stress and resilience and their biomarkers in humans from the system science perspective. A stressor pushes the physiological system away from its baseline state toward a lower utility state. The physiological system may return toward the original state in one attractor basin but may be shifted to a state in another, lower utility attractor basin. While some physiological changes induced by stressors may benefit health, there is often a chronic wear and tear cost due to implementing changes to enable the return of the system to its baseline state and maintain itself in the high utility baseline attractor basin following repeated perturbations. This cost, also called allostatic load, is the utility reduction associated with both a change in state and with alterations in the attractor basin that affect system responses following future perturbations. This added cost can increase the time course of the return to baseline or the likelihood of moving into a different attractor basin following a perturbation. Opposite to this is the system's resilience which influences its ability to return to the high utility attractor basin following a perturbation by increasing the likelihood and/or speed of returning to the baseline state following a stressor. This review paper is a qualitative systematic review; it covers areas most relevant for moving the stress and resilience field forward from a more quantitative and neuroscientific perspective.

Which best explains how an object at rest deep in space and far from any massive body behaves compared to an object in free fall
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: They behave the same because, according to the principle of equivalence, the laws of physics work the same in all frames of reference.

Explanation:

According to the equivalence principle postulated by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, acceleration in space and gravity on Earth have the same effects on objects.

To understand it better, regarding to the equivalence principle, Einstein formulated the following:  

A gravitational force and an acceleration in the opposite direction are equivalent, both have indistinguishable effects.  Because the laws of physics must be accomplished in all frames of reference.

Hence, according to general relativity, gravitational force and acceleration in the opposite direction (an object in free fall, for example) have the same effect.  This makes sense if we deal with gravity not as a mysterious atractive force but as a geometric effect of matter on spacetime that causes its deformation.

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t
aliya0001 [1]

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of position. The work done by the force causes the kinetic energy change

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic enegy of an object is equal to the work done on the object:

\Delta E_k = W

where the work done is the integral of the force over the position of the object:

W=\int F(x) dx

As we see from the formula, the magnitude of the force F(x) can be dependent from the position of the object, therefore in order to solve correctly the integral and find the work done on the object, it is required to know the behaviour of the force as a function of the position, x.
