It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

Given:

The speed of the pitch thrown by Justin is 100 miles per hour

The distance of home plate from the pitching rubber is 60.5 feet

To find:

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate

Solution:

The distance home plate from the pitching rubber = d = 60.5 feet

1 mile = 5280 feet\\1 foot=\frac{1}{5280} mile\\60.5 feet=60.5 \times \frac{1}{5280} mile=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles

The speed of pitch thrown by Justin = s = 100 miles/hr

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate = t =?

The speed of the moving object is given by dividing the distance covered from the time taken to cover that distance.

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\s=\frac{d}{t}\\100 miles/hr=\frac{\frac{60.5}{5280}miles}{t}\\t=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles\times \frac{1}{100 miles/hr}\\= 0.000114583 hr

In an hour there are 3600 seconds, then in 0.000114583 hours will be:

1 hour=3600 seconds\\=0.000114583 \times 3600=0.4124988 s\approx 0.4 s

It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

What is the area of the partial circle with a radius of 8 cm?
lina2011 [118]

notice, the circle is missing 1/4, so the area of it is just 3/4 of the whole area of the circle.


\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=8 \end{cases}\implies A=\pi 8^2\implies A=64\pi \\\\\\ \stackrel{whole}{\cfrac{4}{4}}-\stackrel{one~quarter}{\cfrac{1}{4}}=\cfrac{3}{4}~\hfill \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot 64\pi \implies 48\pi \implies \stackrel{\pi =3.14}{150.72} \\\\\\ ~\hspace{34em}
