- . In an experiment, you throw a rubber ball of mass m = 25.0 g onto a block of mass M = 250 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 0.98 m. (Figure) The ball bounces back with a speed of 1.01 m/s, and the block eventually lands at d = 1.02 m from the bottom of the table. What is the speed of the ball, right before it hits the block?arrow_forwardThree carts are moving on a frictionless horizontal track as shown in the figure. The 4.00 kg cart is moving to the right with a speed of 7.0 m/s, the 10.0 kg cart is also moving to the right with a speed of 6.0 m/s while the 3.00 kg cart moves to the left with a speed of 7 m/s. Find the final speed of the carts when they are all stuck together. Hint: The order at which the carts stick together does not matter. Can you see why?arrow_forwardTwo blocks with masses m1 = 1.4kg and m2 = 4.6kg are at rest on a frictionless surface with a compressed spring between them. When the blocks are let go, block 1 is observed to have a velocity of 4.4m/s to the left. What is the speed of block 2?arrow_forward
- A 6.0 ✕ 104 kg space probe is traveling at a speed of 12000 m/s through deep space. Retrorockets are fired along the line of motion to reduce the probe's speed. The retrorockets generate a force of 3.0 ✕ 105 N over a distance of 2400 km. What is the final speed of the probe? m/sarrow_forwardA crane drops a 1.7 kg steel ball onto a steel plate. The ball's speeds just before impact and after are -8.5 m/s and 5.3 m/s, respectively. If the ball is in contact with the plate for 0.048 seconds, what average force does the ball exert on the plate during impact?arrow_forwardA 3.45 kg black ball traveling 4 m/s has a head on collision with a white one at rest. Using the velocities shown, calculate the mass of the white ball, Ignore friction and air resistance. 0 m/s 4 m/s 1.4 m/s 5.7 m/sarrow_forward
- A baseball has a mass of 0.140 kg, and it is pitched towards home plate at a speed of 48.0 m/s. Assume that the ball is pitched horizontally and that the ball is hit horizontally back in the opposite direction. If the bat exerts an average force of 9100 N for 2.80 ms, what is the final speed of the ball in m/s?arrow_forwardA 2.76-kg steel ball strikes a massive wall at 10.0 m/s at an angle of θ = 60.0° with the plane of the wall. It bounces off the wall with the same speed and angle (see the figure below). If the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.176 s, what is the average force exerted by the wall on the ball?arrow_forwardAn ice skater with a mass of 48.0 kg is gliding across a smooth lake with a speed of 2.85 m/s when she hits a spot of ice covered with snow. After a time of 7.75 s she has slowed to a stop. Using your knowledge of momentum, determine the magnitude of the average force of friction acting on the ice skater while she slows to a stop.arrow_forward
