Answer:

The normal force that the wall exerts on the ball.

Explanation:

Erica throws a tennis ball against a wall, and it bounces back. Here Newton's third law of motion follows. When the ball hits the wall, the wall will also exert an equal and opposite force on the ball as per third law. The opposite force that wall exert on ball is normal force which is responsible for sending the ball back to Erica.

Hence, the force is normal force exerted by the wall on the ball.

When you ride a bike and make a turn, you can feel your body trying to move in the same direction the bike was going. Which of N

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newtons second law explains this the most because for every action their is an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction of you turning, causes the reaction of your whole body to turn with the bike.

If a 5.5 kg object experiences 15 N of force for .15 seconds what is the speed change

Nady [450]

The speed change : Δv = 0.41 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 5.5 kg

Force = 15 N

time = 0.15 s

Required

the speed change

Solution

Newton 2nd's law

Impulse and momentum

F = m.a

F = m . Δv/t

F.t = m.Δv

Input the value :

15 N x 0.15 s = 5.5 kg x Δv

Δv = 0.41 m/s

A diver 40 m deep in 10 degrees C fresh water exhales a 1.5 cm diameter bubble.

zzz [600]

Answer:

0.0257259766982 m

Explanation:

$P_2$ = Atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

$d_1$ = Initial diameter = 1.5 cm

$d_2$ = Final diameter

$\rho$ = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

h = Depth = 40 m

The pressure is

$P_1=P_2+\rho gh\\\Rightarrow P_1=101325+1000\times 9.81\times 40\\\Rightarrow P_1=493725\ Pa$

From ideal gas law we have

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2\dfrac{4}{3\times8}\pi d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{P_1d_1^3}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2d_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{P_1d_1^3T_2}{P_2T_1})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=(\dfrac{493725\times 0.015^3\times (20+273.15)}{101325\times (10+273.15)})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d_2=0.0257259766982\ m$
