svlad2 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

They can do this with the help of mechanical power generated from the human muscle.

Explanation:

Since rescue workers engage in missions where it is usually difficult for them to get electrical energy to their devices and working tools, they could employ various materials that can be sourced around them to get energy to their tools. One of such is the mechanical power generated from the human body through squeezing and compressing.

Some green devices such as the dyno torch have been designed to be powered through this method. Repeated squeezing of its flywheel allows light to be generated.

Taya2010 [7]

Given that:

Distance , s = 18.5 m

Velocity , v = 3.85 m/s

Time , t =?

Since,

Velocity = distance/time

or

Time= distance/velocity

time= 18.5/ 3.85

time= 4.8 s

So the time elapse between the release of the ball and the ball passing home plate is 4.8 seconds.
