A baseball pitcher brings his arm forward during a pitch, rotating the forearm about the elbow. If the velocity of the ball in the pitcher's hand is 37.137.1 m/s (about 8383 mph) and the ball is 0.3300.330 m from the elbow joint, what is the angular velocity of the forearm?

Respuesta :

Answer:

112.4 rad/s

Explanation:

[tex]v[/tex] = velocity of the ball in the pitcher's hand = 37.1 m/s

[tex]r[/tex] = distance of ball from the elbow joint = 0.330 m

[tex]w[/tex] = angular velocity of the forearm

Angular velocity of the forearm is given as

Inserting the values

[tex]w = \frac{v}{r}[/tex]

[tex]w = \frac{37.1}{0.330}[/tex]

[tex]w[/tex] = 112.4 rad/s

The angular velocity is the ratio of the velocity to the distance. Hence, the angular velocity of the forearm is 112.42 rad/s

Given the Parameters :

  • Velocity of ball, v = 37.1 m/s

  • Distance from elbow joint ; r = 0.330 m

The angular velocity of the forearm can be defined thus :

  • [tex]Angular \: velocity = \frac{velocity}{distance} = \frac{v}{r} [/tex]

[tex] Angular\: velocity = \frac{37.1}{0.330} = 112.42 rad/s [/tex]

Therefore, the angular velocity of the forearm is 112.42 rad/s
