Homer Agin leads the Varsity team in home runs. In a recent game, Homer hit a 34.5 m/s sinking curve ball head on, sending it of

f his bat in the exact opposite direction at 23.9 m/s. The actually contact between ball and bat lasted for 0.00075 seconds. Determine the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during the contact with the bat in m/s/s. Do not include units or /- sign. Round your answer to a whole number.

Answer:

–77867 m/s/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Acceleration = (final velocity – Initial velocity) /time

a = (v – u) / t

With the above formula, we can obtain acceleration of the ball as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (–23.9 – 34.5) / 0.00075

a = –58.4 / 0.00075

a = –77867 m/s/s

Thus, the acceleration of the ball is –77867 m/s/s.

How does energy move through the atmosphere hydrosphere and biosphere
Anna11 [10]
<span>When the Sun’s energy moves through space, it reaches Earth’s atmosphere and finally the surface.  This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet’s systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection</span>
