The fastest pitched baseball was measured at Typically, a baseball has a mass of 145 g. If the pitcher exerted his force (assumed to be horizontal and constant) over a distance of 1.0 m, (a) what force did he produce on the ball during this record-setting pitch? (b) Draw free-body diagrams of the ball during the pitch and just after it left the pitcher's hand.

Given: A 925-kg pickup decelerates to rest from a speed of 97.5 km/h in a distance of 110 m. Suppose the pickup is initially moving in the positive direction. If the brakes are the only thing making the pickup come to a stop, calculate the force (in newtons, in a component along the direction of motion of the pickup) that the brakes apply on the pickup. Suppose instead of braking that the pickup hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force, in newtons, exerted on the pickup in this case. What is the ratio of the force on the pickup from the concrete to the braking force?
A SpaceX rocket with an initial mass of m0 uses its engines to hover, stationary,just above the ground. (a) Write down a differential equation for the rocket’s mass usingthe condition that the thrust must balance the force of gravity. Assume the exhaust speedvex is a constant.
