**Problem Statement:**As a protest against the umpire's calls, a baseball pitcher throws a ball straight up into the air at a speed of 21.5 m/s. In the process, he moves his hand through a distance of 1.45 m. If the ball has a mass of 0.150 kg, find the force he exerts on the ball to give it this upward speed.**Variables Given:**- Initial speed (v) = 21.5 m/s- Distance (d) = 1.45 m- Mass (m) = 0.150 kg**Objective:**Calculate the force exerted on the ball.**Calculation:**To solve this problem, you would typically use the work-energy principle which relates the work done on the ball to its change in kinetic energy. The work done (W) by the force (F) is given by: \[ W = F \cdot d \]The change in kinetic energy (ΔKE) is given by:\[ ΔKE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 - \frac{1}{2} m \cdot 0^2 = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \]Since the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy:\[ F \cdot d = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \]Solving for F (Force):\[ F = \frac{\frac{1}{2} m v^2}{d} \]**Graphs and Diagrams:**No graphs or diagrams are present in the image. This explanation would typically accompany a diagram showing a pitcher throwing the ball, with forces labeled and an indication of the initial velocity and distance moved by the hand.

A hockey stick pushes a 0.160-kg puck with constant force across the frictionless surface of an ice rink. During this motion, the pucks velocity changes from 4.00 m/s to (6.00 + 12.00) m/s in 4.00 s. a. What are the scalar components of the force acting on the puck? b. What is the magnitude of the force acting on the puck?
In Chapter 5, you will study a very important vector, force. Each case in Figure P3.13 shows an example of force vectors exerted on an object. These forces are all of the same magnitude F0. Assume that the forces lie in the plane of the paper. Rank the cases from greatest to smallest according to the magnitude of the total force. Note: The total force is the vector sum of the individual forces exerted on the object.
Sally is driving at a constant speed of 25 m/s on a straight horizontal road. She sees an obstacle on the road ahead and applies the brakes! The wheels lock causing the car to slide forward. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is 0.40, how long does it take the car to come to a complete stop? * please do not use hand writing -- hard to read **
School bus drivers are extra careful when they cross railroad tracks. They stop before they cross railroad tracks to be sure that there is no train coming. Yet, trains typically move slower through towns than cars do. If trains usually move slower than cars, why can they do more damage if they hit something in their path? *
A hockey puck slides with constant velocity, from point “a” to point “b” along a frictionless horizontal surface. When the puck reaches point “b”, it receives a instantaneous horizontal “kick “ in the direction as depicted by the heavy arrow. a) Along the frictionless path you have chosen, how does the speed of the puck vary after receiving the “kick”? *a. No change. b. Continuously increasing. c. Increasing for a while, and decreasing thereafter. d. Constant from a while and decreasing thereafter.
Hello good day! I want to ask help with this question. I know this a physics problem but this was given by our calculus teacher as an assignment and should be solved in a calculus approach. Thank you! 1. A man on the edge of a platform 8 ft above the ground throws a ball vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 28 ft/s. Assuming that the only force acting on the ball is acceleration.due to gravity (-32 ft/s2). *What is the speed of the ball when it hits the ground? *How long does it take for the ball to reach its maximum height?

An escape lane is an emergency area placed next to a steep, downhill section of a road. It allows vehicles with brake failure to slow down and stop away from the other traffic. One type of escape lane uses a ramp. These are built with an upwards gradient to slow the vehicle. escape lane original B direction of direction of vehicle vehicle using escape lane If oil was spilled at that point and there was no friction, which way does the vehicle go?
