- The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.24 N down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 17.0 m/s by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line for a time interval of 182 ms. The ball starts from rest. (a) Through what distance does it move before its release? 1.59 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball? (Enter your magnitude to at least one decimal place.) 46.637 Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. N magnitude 6.141 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error.°…arrow_forwardAs the first human astronaut to land on a distant planet, you are standing on the edge of a small cliff. You toss a small experiment apparatus straight up in the air and it reaches a maximum height of 3.0 m above the cliff. The apparatus then falls to the bottom of the cliff, landing a distance 10 m below its initial position. Given that the acceleration due to gravity on the exoplanet is a = -5.6j m/s?, how long did it take for the apparatus to get from the top of its trajectory to the bottom of the cliff? The coordinate system is set up such that "up" is in the +j direction.

After the fish swims with constant acceleration for 20 sec its velocity is v = (20.0î – 5.05)m/s. A) What are the components of the acceleration? B) What is the direction of the acceleration with respect to unit vector f? C) If the fish maintains constant acceleration, where is it at t=2.5 s, and in what direction is it moving?arrow_forward
- A pole vaulter is momentarily motionless as he clears the bar, which is set 4.2 m above the ground. He then falls onto a thick cushion. The top of the cushion is 80 cm above the ground, and it compresses by 50 cm as the pole vaulter comes to rest. What is his acceleration as he comes to rest on the cushion?arrow_forwardA rocket starts from rest and moves upward from the surface of the earth. For the first 10.0 s of its motion, the vertical acceleration of the rocket is given by ay= (2.80 m/s^3)t, where the +y direction is upward. a) What is the height of the rocket above the surface of the earth at t = 10.0 s? b) What is the speed of the rocket when it is 325 m above the surface of the earth?arrow_forwardA typical sneeze expels material at a maximum speed of 58.6 m/s. Suppose the material begins inside the nose at rest, 2.00 cm from the nostrils. It has a constant acceleration for the first 0.250 cm and then moves at constant velocity for the remainder of the distance. What is the acceleration as the material moves the first 0.250 cm (0.250 m)?arrow_forward
