The table shows the diameters of the planets in our solar system. Assume that a basketball whose diameter is 25 centimeters represents the planet Jupiter. Find the scale (ratio) between Jupiter and the basketball. Then use this ratio to find the scaled diameter of the other planets. Enter these numbers into the table. (Saturn has been done for you.) Finally, choose a real-world spherical or nearly spherical object that matches the scaled diameter of each planet. Saturn is shown as an example. To find what Saturn’s size would be after adjusting it to scale, follow these steps. Let the scaled diameter of Saturn be d centimeters. If Jupiter’s diameter, 142,984 kilometers, is scaled to 25 centimeters, Saturn’s diameter of 120,536 kilometers will be scaled to about 21 centimeters:

Abatter hits the baseball a with an initial velocity of v0 = 110 ft/sec directly toward fielder b at an angle of 23° to the horizontal; the initial position of the ball is 2.2 ft above ground level. fielder b requires 0.44 sec to judge where the ball should be caught and begins moving to that position with constant speed. because of great experience, fielder b chooses his running speed so that he arrives at the “catch position” simultaneously with the baseball. the catch position is the field location at which the ball altitude is 8.4 ft. determine the velocity of the ball relative to the fielder at the instant the catch is made.

The magnitude of the amount of energy released by burning a fuel source, measured in energy per unit mass, is called its fuel value. note that the fuel value is the negative of the isobaric specific heat of combustion for the fuel. if all the energy obtained from burning 1.23 pounds of butane with a fuel value of 10.85 kcal/g is used to heat 128.0 kg of water at an initial temperature of 18.3 °c, what is the final temperature? note that 1 lb = 453.6 g.
