Answer: 0.145 seconds
Explanation:
Given that Roger Clemens could routinely throw a fastball at a horizontal speed of 119.7 m/s. How long did the ball take to reach home plate 17.3 m away
Since the speed is horizontal
Using the formula for speed which is
Speed = distance/time
Where
Speed = 119.7 m/s
Distance covered = 17.3 m
Time is what we are looking for
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
119.7 = 17.3/ time
Make time the subject of formula
Time = 17.3 / 119.7
Time = 0.145 seconds.
Therefore, it will take 0.145 seconds to reach the home plates
Answer:
L2 = 1.1994 m
the length of the pendulum rod when the temperature drops to 0.0°C is 1.1994 m
Explanation:
Given;
Initial length L1 = 1.2m
Initial temperature T1 = 27°C
Final temperature T2 = 0.0°C
Linear expansion coefficient of brass x = 1.9 × 10^-5 /°C
The change i length ∆L;
∆L = L2 - L1
L2 = L1 + ∆L ...........1
∆L = xL1(∆T)
∆L = xL1(T2 - T1) ......2
Substituting the given values into equation 2;
∆L = 1.9 × 10^-5 /°C × 1.2m × (0 - 27)
∆L = 1.9 × 10^-5 /°C × 1.2m × (- 27)
∆L = -6.156 × 10^-4 m
From equation 1;
L2 = L1 + ∆L
Substituting the values;
L2 = 1.2 m + (- 6.156 × 10^-4 m)
L2 = 1.2 m - 6.156 × 10^-4 m
L2 = 1.1993844 m
L2 = 1.1994 m
the length of the pendulum rod when the temperature drops to 0.0°C is 1.1994 m
