A musician hits a drum with a drumstick. in three to four sentences, explain the collision forces between the drum and drumstick
dalvyx [7]

The collision forces between the drum and drumstick obeys Newtown third law of motion.

<h3>Application of Newton's law</h3>

Newton's third law states that when one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts a force on the first. That is, action and reaction is equal and opposite.

When the drumstick hits the drum, the drum pushes against the sticks with an equal and opposite force, leaving the drum resonating with sound and the sticks back up in the air.

The collision force existing between the drum and the drumstick makes it easier for the sticks to apply more force to the drum.

Therefore, the collision forces between the drum and drumstick obeys Newtown third law of motion.

A Long Jumber leaves the ground at on
MArishka [77]

Answer:

horizontal velocity vh = 6*cos(30°) = 6*(√3)/2 = 3√3 m/s

initial vertical velocity vv = 6*sin(30°) = 6/2 = 3m/s

Using s = ut + at2/2 for change in vertical distance in time t, with acceleration a (-9.8m/s2) and initial velocity u (vv = 3m/s) we have

0 = 3*t - 9.8*t2/2 or t = 6/9.8 s (ignoring the t = 0 solution, which just represents staying still!).

The horizontal distance in time t is vh*t or 3√3*6/9.8 m
