Why is it a good idea to extend your bare hand forward when you are getting ready to catch a fast-moving baseball?
a. so you can catch the ball with a stiff arm, increasing the time to slow the ball thus deceasing the force.
b. so you can pull your hand back, increasing the time to slow the ball thus increasing the force.
c. so you can catch the ball with a stiff arm increasing the time to slow the ball thus increasing the force.
d. so you can pull your hand back, increasing the time to slow the ball thus deceasing the force.

Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2
