Question
1) A baseball with a mass of 137 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.6 m/s (91 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.05 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.4 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive.
2)A 4.50 gram bullet is fired from a rifle at a horizontal speed of 210 m/s. If the rifle has a weight of 25.0 N and is initially motionless, determine the recoil speed of the rifle.

- A baseball approaches home plate at a speed of 48.0 m/s, moving horizontally just before being hit by a bat. The batter hits a pop-up such that after hitting the bat, the baseball is moving at 57.0 m/s straight up. The ball has a mass of 145 g and is in contact with the bat for 1.60 ms. What is the average vector force the ball exerts on the bat during their interaction? (Let the +x-direction be in the initial direction of motion, and the +y-direction be up.)

- On the set of a new Hollywood movie, a 84.6-kg stunt actor (Max Payne) is tossed straight out of a helicopter hovering (stationary) at a height of 55.3 meters. The stunt actor is thrown from the helicopter at a speed of 4.56 m/s, eventually landing in the water below. Determine the stunt actor's impact speed and assume negligible air resistance. You can use the approximation that g = 10 m/s2.

While they are passing each other, coal is shoveled from the slower to the faster one at a rate of 780 kg/min. How much additional force must be provided by the driving engines of (a) the faster barge and (b) the slower barge if neither is to change speed? Assume that the shoveling is always perfectly sideways and that the frictional forces between the barges and the water do not depend on the mass of the barges.arrow_forward
