- Shohei Ohtani pitches a fastball with a horizontal velocity of 40 m/s. The horizontal distance from the point of release to home plate is 17.50 m. Justin Turner, the Red Samurai, decides to swing the bat 0.30 s after the ball has been released by Ohtani. The average angular velocity of the bat is 12 rad/s. The angular displacement of the bat from the Red Samurai’s shoulder to hitting positions above the plate is between 1.5 and 1.8 rad. A) Will the bat be in a hitting position above the plate when the ball is above the plate? Assume the pitch is in the strike zone and that if Turner hits it, it’s a homerun because the Dodgers are better than the Angels. B) Assume that Turner does hit the ball. If the bat’s instantaneous velocity is 30 rad/s at the instant of contact, and the distance from the sweet spot of the bat to the axis of rotation is 1.25 m, what is the instantaneous linear velocity of the sweet spot at the instant of ball contact?arrow_forwardThe wheels of a sport car go from rest to 3000 rpm in 3 second.
