- An incoming tennis ball (mass 0.060 kg) has a speed of 14 m/s. The player hits the ball with a racquet, giving the ball a speed of 30 m/s in the opposite direction. If the contact time is 0.005 s, what is the average force of the racquet on the ball?arrow_forwardDuring a squash game, a player hits the ball, of 24 g, which is moving toward him horizontally at 150 km/h. The impact between the racket and the ball lasts 1.2 ms and the ball leaves with an identical speed but in the opposite direction as the initial velocity. The ball then hits the wall in front, 8 m away and 18 cm below the height of the hit. What is the average force acting on the ball during the impact?arrow_forwardA 56 g base ball is travelling at 40 m/s. When it hits with the baseball bat, you exert an average force of 78 N, sending the ball back at 30 m/s. How long was the baseball in contact with the bat? Please answer in m/sarrow_forward
- A 0.15 kg baseball is moving at 35 m/s toward home plate when it is hit with the bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 0.0019 s, and leaves the bat at 25 m/s directly away from home plate. Determine the average force exerted by the bat on the ball.arrow_forwardTwo bumper cars at the county fair are sliding toward one another (see figure below). Initially, bumper car 1 is traveling to the east at 5.70 m/s, and bumper car 2 is traveling 79.1° south of west at 4.25 m/s. They collide and stick together, as the driver of one car reaches out and grabs hold of the other driver. The two bumper cars move off together after the collision, and friction is negligible between the cars and the ground.

Two bricks, each with a mass of 1.5 kg, are resting on a frictionless surface, a short distance apart from each other. A steel ball, with a mass of 0.118 kg, is shot into the first brick with a velocity of 174 m/s, and after passing through the first brick, it embeds itself in the second brick. The first brick has a velocity of 1.83 m/s right after the ball leaves. What is the velocity of the second brick with the embedded ball?arrow_forward
