A curve ball is a type of pitch in which the baseball spins on its axis as it heads for home plate. if a curve ball is thrown at

35.6 m/s (80 mph ) with a spin rate of 29 rev/s , how many revolutions does it complete before reaching home plate? assume that home plate is 18.3 m (60 ft) from the pitching mound and that the baseball travels at a constant velocity.

The ball travels 18.3 m at a speed of 35.6 m/s.
How long does the trip take ?
time = (distance)/(speed) = (18.3 m) / (35.6 m/s) = 0.514 second

All during the trip, the ball is spinning at the rate of 29 rev/second.

Spinning at 29 rev/s for 0.514 sec, it completes  14.91 revolutions,
before stopping with a THUNK in the pocket of the catcher's mitt.

A centrifugal pump discharges 300 gpm against a head of 55 ft when the speed is 1500 rpm. The diameter of the impeller is 15.5 i
Ksivusya [100]

Answer: Question 1: Efficiency is 0.6944

Question 2: speed of similar pump is 2067rpm

Explanation:

Question 1:

Flow rate of pump 1 (Q1) = 300gpm

Flow rate of pump 2 (Q2) = 400gpm

Head of pump (H)= 55ft

Speed of pump1 (v1)= 1500rpm

Speed of pump2(v2) = ?

Diameter of impeller in pump 1= 15.5in = 0.3937m

Diameter of impeller in pump 2= 15in = 0.381

B.H.P= 6.0

Assuming cold water, S.G = 1.0

eff= (H x Q x S.G)/ 3960 x B.H.P

= (55x 300x 1)/3960x 6

= 0.6944

Question 2:

Q = A x V. (1)

A1 x v1 = A2 x V2. (2)

Since A1 = A2 = A ( since they are geometrically similar

A = Q1/V1 = Q2/V2. (3)

V1(m/s) = r x 2π x N(rpm)/60

= (0.3937x 2 x π x 1500)/2x 60

= 30.925m/s

Using equation (3)

V2 = (400 x 30.925)/300

= 41.2335m/s

To rpm:

N(rpm) = (60 x V(m/s))/2 x π x r

= (60 x 41.2335)/ 2× π × 0.1905

= 2067rpm.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

We want a sound wave with a wavelength of 0.52 meters or a natural fraction thereof. We'll work in MKS.

w = 0.52/n

That's length.  We have speed 344 meters/second so w corresponds to a frequency of

f = 344 / w = n (344/.52)

f = 661.5 n  Hertz

I don't really agree with how they're saying it, but all the fundamental talk is probably trying to tell us n=1,

Answer: 661.5 Hertz

Any multiple of that will also produce constructive interference; we can go to about n=30 before we're out of the audio range.
