    Thanks, Mr. P! I'm excited to show my APC kids this. I usually just have time to show them all the fun calculus and then they do the coffee filter lab based on the 2010 exam problem. Being virtual this year, I won't be able to do the lab with them but this is so perfect for us. They will get to see the graphs from the motion detector plus get a fantastic explanation from you! Thank you so much for everything that you do!

    Thank you for the video! I just sent the link to my Physics C students. We just did the coffee filter lab before Thanksgiving (well, some of them actually did it, the students at home just watched me do it) and the timing for the video is perfect. Thanks for all you do!

    The highest hit ball that was able to be recorded before the “Statcast Era” in the MLB ( the current era of professional baseball ), was a home run by Darryl Strawberry of the New York Mets in Montreal’s Olympic Stadium. It was a absolute blast to right field that barely cleared the fence about ten to fifteen metres from the foul pole; but the ball actually never reached its apex, as it struck the roof on the way up. By estimating the time it took the ball to hit the roof after leaving home plate (by watching the game footage of course) was about 8 to 9 seconds; by this very rough estimate the balls total time in gravitational acceleration would max out at ten seconds (halving the total flight time due to parabolic assumption)

    400 m is very high up. Even on the farthest vertical pop flys ( usually on the infield ) don’t usually stay in the air for more than 6 seconds from the apex of their flight. Even on high hit home runs ( normally called moonshots ) when the ball reaches the apex, it will only have a maximum of 9 seconds to fall back down.

      What software that can be used to convert the kinematics graphs from the video we make? Any suggestion?

    Why acceleration will never reach exactly zero as said at 12.51 ? whats the problem ? please someone share light on that ? thank you..

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 года назад +1

      It is called an asymptote. The function approaches a fixed value or a linear approximation, but it never actually gets to it. It keeps approaching it ever closer, but the rate at which it approaches this value keeps decreasing

    doesnt acceleration due to gravity always start at -9.81?why does it start at zaro then starts dropping to -9.81?

    • @FlippingPhysics
      @FlippingPhysics  Год назад

      In free fall, when there is no air resistance, all objects near the surface of planet Earth have an acceleration of ~9.81 m/s^2 downward.
      This video includes air resistance. So, not free fall.

    And terminal velocity decreases as it falls through denser and denser air.

    • @FlippingPhysics

      Actually, terminal velocity should increase as an object goes through a medium which increases density.

      are you not takling instead about the drag force term, which does increase proportionally with air density?
