- Current Attempt in Progress that acts on a 2.70-kg ice block that The figure gives, as a function of time t, the force component can move only along the x axis. At t = 0, the block is moving in the positive direction of the axis, with a speed of 2.00 m/s. What is its velocity, including sign, at t = 11 s?

During the collision with the ground, he comes to rest in a time of .2s. The average force exerted on her by the ground is + 2000 N, where the upward direction is taken to be the positive direction. A) from what height did he just fall? Assume the only force acting on him during the collision is that of the ground. B) suppose instead of the man, a 5 kg rubber ball was dropped from the same vertical distance and the ball bounced back conserving the linear momentum. What would be the velocity of the ball just when it bounced back?arrow_forward
- A baseball player hits a bunt during which the bat is in contact with the ball for 0.0005 s. If the bat applies a force of 3,000 N to the 0.15 kg baseball, what is the change in the ball's velocity? Your answer should be in units of m/s but you should only submit the number for your answer (and don't worry about negative signs, just use a positive value).arrow_forwardWhen serving a tennis ball, the player hits it when its velocity is zero (at the highest point of a vertical toss). The racket exerts a force of 510 N on the ball for 5.00 ms, giving it a final velocity of 47.0 m/s. Using these data, find the mass (in g) of the ball.arrow_forwardFour arrows, all with the same shape and size, are shot directly upward. Ignore the effect of air resistance, but the arrows have different masses and are fired with different speeds. Rank them from highest to lowest in terms of the greatest height that they will reach.

- Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a). They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = +0.42 m/s. If the boy weighs 718 N and the girl 450 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off?
