When thrown from the balloon, the sandbag has a constant horizontal/forward velocity. As the text puts it, "the sandbag continues forward as if it had not been dropped." What this means is that the sandbag has no acceleration in the horizontal plane of motion, so it moves in this direction at a constant speed. So for any time t, the horizontal velocity is given by

v_x(t) = 12\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

In the vertical plane of motion, the sandbag has no vertical velocity until it's released and allowed to fall. As it's falling, however, the sandbag is being pulled down by gravity and is accelerating with magnitude g=9.8\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}, so its vertical/downward velocity at time t is given by

v_y(t) = -gt

So, after 3 seconds have passed, the sandbag has horizontal velocity v_x = 12\frac{\rm m}{\rm s} and vertical velocity v_y = -g(3\,\mathrm s) = -29.4\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}. If the question is specifically asking about speed you would just ignore the negative signs.

In being served, a tennis ball is accelerated from rest to a speed of 42.1 m/s. The average power generated during the serve is
hoa [83]

Answer:

Force F = 69.35 N

Explanation:

given data

Ball Initial speed u = 0

Ball Final speed v = 42.1 m/s

average power generate = 2920 W

solution

Power generate is express as

P= \frac{W}{t}   ..............1

here W is work done and t is time

and work w = F × d

so

P= \frac{Fd}{t}  

and we know speed v = \frac{d}{t}  

so here

Power P = F × v

put here value and we get force

Force F = \frac{2920}{42.1}

Force F = 69.35 N
