- A 50.0-g Super Ball traveling at 28.0 m/s bounces off a brick wall and rebounds at 18.5 m/s. A high-speed camera records this event. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 3.45 ms, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during this time interval?arrow_forwardYou step onto a hot beach with your bare feet. A nerve impulse, generated in your foot, travels through your nervous system at an average speed of 139m/s. How much time does it take for the impulse, which travels at a distance of 1.81m, to reach your brain?arrow_forwardYou and a friend ride your bikes to a restaurant across town. Both of you start at the same instant from your house, you riding 10 m/s and your friend riding 12 m/s. During the trip your friend has a flat tire and that takes him 8 minutes to fix. He then continues the trip at the same speed of 12 m/s. If the distance to the restaurant is 10 km, who gets there first?arrow_forward

- This time you drop a ball from a height of 1.82 m and it hits the floor 0.365 s after you drop it. This time you suspect you are on a rocket that has just left the surface of the Earth, and is still not too far above the ground.

The boxer's fist can obtain a speed of v = 9.25 m/s in a time of t = 0.21 s. Write a symbolic expression for the magnitude of the average acceleration, aave, of the boxer's fist, in terms of the variables provided. Find the magnitude of the average acceleration, aave, in meters per square second. Write an expression for the magnitude of the average net force, Fb, that the boxer must apply to his fist to achieve the given velocity. (Write the expression in terms of m, v and t.) What is the numerical value of Fb, in newtons?arrow_forwardYou wake up in a strange room with no windows.

- A 50.0-g Super Ball traveling at 30.0 m/s bounces off a brick wall and rebounds at 16.0 m/s. A high-speed camera records this event. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 4.60 ms, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during this time interval?arrow_forwardAt a moment when a rocket is 1120 m above the ground, it is traveling straight upward with a speed of 955 m/s. At this instant a small piece detaches from the rocket and begins freefall travel. 1. a) Find the velocity of the piece the instant before it hits the ground. b) Find the time required for it to reach the ground.arrow_forwardYou and your friend would like to experimentally determine a value for g, an object's acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Your friend sets a baseball on the edge of a desk, and you crouch down by the floor, waiting for the ball to drop. She pushes the ball off the desk and yells GO! to signal you to press START your phone's stopwatch app. When the ball hits the floor, you press STOP on the app to stop the timer, and see that the time reads t = 0.606 s. Using a tape measure with markings for cm, you measure the top of the desk to be h = 123 cm from the floor. Part 1) Assuming the ball started with no initial vertical velocity, calculate the value of g in your experiment symbolically. Assume that g is a positive number. Part 2) Using your previous symbolic answer and the qualities from the experiment, determine a numeric value for g. Part 3) What is a reasonable quantitative estimate for your uncertainty in stopping the timer, sigma t? What about your error in measuring the height…arrow_forward
