No velocity will not be changed

Why?

According to Newtons 1st law the velocity of a moving object remains unchanged unless a external force affect that.

lawyer [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

The ball fall vertically 2.69 ft by the time it reached home plate 60.0 ft away.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Fastest recorded pitches major-league baseball, thrown by nolan ryan in 1974 = 100.8 mi/hr = 44.8 m/s

The horizontal distance to home plate = 60.0 ft = 18.288 m

We have the horizontal velocity = 44.8 m/s

So time taken = 18.288/44.8 = 0.408 seconds.

The distance traveled by baseball vertically is found out by equation $s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$

Here u =0m/s, a = 9.81 $m/s^2$ and t = 0.408 s

Substituting

$S = 0*0.408+\frac{1}{2} *9.81*0.408^2 = 0.82 m\\ \\S = 0.82 m= 2.69 ft$

So vertical distance traveled = 0.82 m = 2.69 ft

Explain why light is referred to as electromagnetic radiation.

balu736 [363]

Answer: Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation because it has the ability to travel from one type of medium to another and can also carry some energy along with it. A light wave has two components, namely the electric field component as well as the magnetic field component that are both perpendicular to the propagating direction.

The visible light lies between the ultraviolet and the infrared lights, with wavelength from 400 nm to 700 nm respectively. This is collectively known as the visible spectrum of light.
