- As a protest against the umpire's calls, a baseball pitcher throws a ball straight up into the air at a speed of 21.5 m/s. In the process, he moves his hand through a distance of 1.45 m. If the ball has a mass of 0.150 kg, find the force he exerts on the ball to give it this upward speed.

The package then coasts on the horizontal conveyor, all the while slowing down, until it comes to a complete stop after moving 1.20 m. While the package is coasting on the conveyor, the opposing friction force averages 6.00 N. Use the WET to find the speed of the package after the worker pushes it and just as it begins to coast. 0.625 m/s 0.759 m/s 0.600 m/s 0.510 m/s 0.802 m/s 0.641 m/sarrow_forwardProblem 5.
