Given:

distance = 48 meter

time = 1.5 second

To find:

How fast he pitch = ?

Formula used:

Speed of the ball is given by,

speed= $\frac{distance}{time}$

Solution:

Joe can pitch a baseball a distance of 48 meters in 1.5 seconds.

Let s is the distance travelled by the ball, t is the time in which ball travel the distance s and v is the speed of ball with which it moved.

Thus, speed of ball is given by,

speed= $\frac{distance}{time}$

v= $\frac{s}{t}$

v= $\frac{48 m}{ 1.5 s}$

v= $\frac{s}{t}$

v=32 m/s

Thus, his pitch is 32 m/s fast.

In a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9

slega [8]

Answer:

1.6 secs

Explanation:

In a circus act, an acrobat upwards from the surface of a trampoline

At that same moment another acrobat perched 9.0m above him

A ball is released from rest

While still in motion the acrobat catches the ball

He left the ball with a trampoline of 5.6m/s

Since the ball is falling downwards from a distance then acceleration will be negative

a= -9.8

s= d

s= 1/2at^2

= 1/2 × (-9.8)t^2

= 0.5× (-9.8)t^2

d = -4.9t^2

Therefore the time the acrobat stays in the air before catching the ball can be calculated as follows

9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t + 1/2(-9.8)t^2

9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t + (-4.9)t^2

9 - 4.9t^2= 5.6t - 4.9t^2

9= 5.6t

t= 9/5.6

t= 1.6 secs

In an experiment you are performing, your lab partner has measured the distance a cart has traveled: 28.4inch. You need the dist

alexgriva [62]

As per the question the distance travelled by a car is 28.4 inch.

we are asked to determine the conversion factor in centimeter which when multiplied with 28.4 inch will give a unit.

we know that one inch =2.54 centimeter.

Hence 28.4 inch = 2.54 ×28.4 cm

=72.136 cm.

Now we have to determine the conversion factor .The multiplication factor is calculated as $P =\frac{28.4 inch*2.54cm}{1 inch}$

$p= 72.136 cm$ [p is the multiplication factor.]

Hence the multiplication factor is 72.137 cm which will give unit conversion when multiplied with 28.4 inch.

Answer:

a. directive zoning

Explanation:

Directive zoning is an instrument used in master plans, whereby the city is divided into areas on which differentiated land use and land use guidelines apply, especially urban indexes. Directive zoning acts primarily by controlling two main elements: the use and size (or size) of lots and buildings. It is therefore assumed that the end result achieved through individual actions is in line with the municipality's objectives, which include proportionality between occupation and infrastructure, the need to protect fragile areas and / or cultural interest, the harmony from the volumetric point of view, etc.
