A baseball pitcher loosens up his pitching arm. He tosses a 0.15-kg ball using only the rotation of his forearm, 0.32 m in length, to accelerate the ball. If the ball starts at rest and is released with a speed of 12 m/s in a time of 0.40 s, what torque is applied to the ball while being held by the pitcher's hand to produce the angular acceleration?

A baseball catcher extends his arm straight up to catch a fast ball with a speed of 45 m/s. The baseball is 0.145 kg and the catcher's arm length is 0.65 m and mass 4.5 kg. (Indicate the direction with the signs of your answers.) (a) What is the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the arm immediately after catching the ball as measured from the arm socket? (Assume his arm rotates counterclockwise after catching the ball.) rad/s (b) What is...
A softball pitcher is using the windmill style of pitching. The ball has an instantaneous angular acceleration of 286.5 deg/s2. If the distance from the axis of rotation (shoulder joint) is 0.5 m to the ball, what is the tangential acceleration of the ball? (
In softball, the pitcher throws underhand with the arm fully extended (straight at the elbow). In a fastpitch the ball, of mass m=0.156 kg, leaves the hand at a speed of 139 km / h, when the arm is pointed vertically downward.Part (a) Find the rotational kinetic energy, in joules, of the pitcher's arm-ball system, given that the arm's moment of inertia is 0.72 kg · m2 and the ball leaves the hand at a distance of 0.725 m from...
In fast-pitch softball, a pitcher swings her arm from straight overhead in a circle, releasing the 0.185 kg ball at the bottom of the swing. If a pitcher's arm has a length of 1.10 m and mass of 9.96 kg, and the ball goes from initially at rest to a tangential speed of 29.4 m/s before release, what average torque must the pitcher apply to the ball? Model the pitcher's arm as a uniform thin rod swung about one end,...
Assume that a 1.30-kg ball is thrown solely by the action of the
forearm, which rotates about the elbow joint under the action of
the triceps muscle, the figure. The ball is accelerated uniformly
from rest to 8.3 m/s in 0.30 s , at which point it is released.
Assume that the forearm has a mass of 3.7 kg and rotates like a
uniform rod about an axis at its end.
A) Calculate the angular acceleration of the arm.
B)Calculate...
Assume that a 1.20-kg ball is thrown solely by the action of the forearm, which rotates about the elbow joint under the action of the triceps muscle, the figure. The ball is accelerated uniformly from rest to 8.3 m/s in 0.30 s , at which point it is released. Assume that the forearm has a mass of 3.7 kg and rotates like a uniform rod about an axis at its end. Neglect gravity. part a Calculate the angular acceleration of...
So lost!!!!! Help! Problem: Assume that a 1.00 kg ball is thrown solely by the action of the forearm, which rotates about the elbow joint under the action of the triceps muscle, as shown in the figure. the ball is accelerated uniformly from rest to 10.0 m/s in .350 s, at which point it is released. The distance from the elbow to the ball is 31 cm. there is 2.5 cm between triceps muscle and axis of rotation(at elbow). A)...
1. John (who is 95 kg) drives his car over an absurdly large half-circle speedbump with a radius of 5 meters. Given that his normal weight is 930 N and his apparent weight at the top of the speed-bump was 246 N, how fast did he drive over the speed bump? 2. When working in circular motion problems, what do we define as always being the positive direction? 3. When in circular motion, the net force points in what direction?...

1. A baseball player is warming up and tosses a ball straight up into the air. The ball travels up until it reaches some maximum height, and then falls back down to the player's hand. If we neglect air resistance, then the magnitude of the acceleration of the ball is? A. largest the moment after it leaves the players hand. B. smallgst the moment after it leaves the player's...
