A baseball pitcher throws a fastball at a speed of 44 m/s. The acceleration occurs as the pitcher holds the ball in his hand and moves it through an almost straight-line distance of 3.5 m. Calculate the acceleration, assuming it is uniform. Compare this acceleration to the acceleration due to gravity.

Sagot :

v = s/t

44 m/s = 3.5 m/t

t = 3.5 m : 44 m/s

t = 0.08 s

a = v/t

a = 44 m/s/0.08 s

a = 550 m/s²

a : g = 550 m/s² : 10 m/s²

a : g = 55 : 1
