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 34.0 m/s and the ball is 0.310 m from the elbow joint, what is the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the forearm

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\omega=109.67\ rad/s[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of the ball, u = 34 m/s

The ball is 0.310 m from the elbow joint.

We need to find the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the forearm.

We know that,

[tex]v=r\omega\\\\\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{34}{0.31}\\\\\omega=109.67\ rad/s[/tex]

So, the required angular velocity of the forearm is 109.67 rad/s.
