Earth's gravity is stronger at the poles than the equator for two reasons: The centrifugal "force" cancels out the gravity minimally, more so at the equator than at the poles.
Answer:
<u>Matter is a substance that has inertia and occupies physical space. According to modern physics, matter consists of various types of particles, each with mass and size.Matter can exist in several states, also called phases. The three most common states are known as solid, liquid and gas.</u><u>Matter is the Stuff Around You</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u> </u><u>Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter. Those atoms go on to build the things you see and touch every day. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has volume).</u><u>Solid ice, water and steam are few examples of matter touched in everyday life. Subatomic particles are also considered as matter.</u>
The formula for kinetic energy is equal to 1/2mv^2, where "m" is the mass of the object (in kilograms) and "v" is equal to the velocity of the object (in meters per second). To calculate the speed, simply plug in the values and solve.
KE = 0.5mv^2
304 J = 0.5(0.3 kg)v^2 -mass converted from grams to kilograms
v = 45.02 m/s
The baseball is travelling about 45.02 meters per second.
Hope this helps!
