A 0.145 kg ball moving in the +x direction at 14 m/s is hit by a bat. The ball's final velocity is 20.0 m/s in the -x direction.

The bat acts on the ball for a duration of 0.010 s.
Find the average force exerted on the ball by the bat. Include the sign of the force to indicate the direction of the force.

Answer:

Approximately (-4.9\times 10^{2}\; {\rm N}) (rounded to two significant figures.)

Explanation:

The impulse \mathbf{J} on an object is equal to the change in the momentum \mathbf{p} of this object. Dividing impulse by duration \Delta t of the contact would give the average external force that was exerted on this object.

If an object of mass m is moving at a velocity of \mathbf{v}, the momentum of that object would be \mathbf{p} = m\, \mathbf{v}.

Let m denote the speed of this ball. Let \mathbf{v}_{0} denote the velocity of this ball before the contact, and let \mathbf{v}_{1} denote the velocity of the ball after the contact.

Momentum \mathbf{p}_{0} of this ball before the contact: \mathbf{p}_{0} = m\, \mathbf{v}_{0}.

Momentum \mathbf{p}_{1} of this ball after the contact: \mathbf{p}_{1} = m\, \mathbf{v}_{1}.

Impulse, which is equal to the change in momentum:

\mathbf{J} = \mathbf{p}_{1} - \mathbf{p}_{0} = m\, \mathbf{v}_{1} - m\, \mathbf{v}_{0}.

Since the velocity of the ball after the contact is in the (-x) direction, \mathbf{v}_{1} = -20.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}. The average external force on this ball would be:

\begin{aligned} \mathbf{F} &= \frac{\mathbf{J}}{\Delta t} \\ &= \frac{m\, \mathbf{v}_{1} - m\, \mathbf{v}_{0}}{\Delta t} \\ &= \frac{m\, (\mathbf{v}_{1} - \mathbf{v}_{0})}{\Delta t} \\ &= \frac{0.145\; {\rm kg} \times ((-20.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - 14\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})}{0.010\; {\rm s}} \\ &\approx -4.9 \times 10^{2}\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to two significant figures.)

Question 2 (1 point)
mixer [17]

Answer:

The initial vertical velocity is zero, u = 0 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

height of the table, h = 0.55 m

horizontal distance traveled by the tennis, x = 0.12 m

Apply the following kinematic equation;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

where;

u is the initial vertical velocity = 0, since the tennis ball rolled off the edge of a table.

h = ¹/₂gt²

The time to fall from the vertical height is given by;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2(0.55)}{9.8} }\\\\t = 0.335 \ s

The initial horizontal velocity of the tennis is given by;

x = vₓt

vₓ = x / t

vₓ = (0.12) / (0.335)

vₓ = 0.358 m/s

Therefore, the initial vertical velocity is zero, u = 0 m/s and initial horizontal velocity, vₓ is 0.358 m/s
