Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                    Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                             = (0.314 kg) x (164 m/s²)

                             =    51.5 newtons

                         (about 11.6 pounds) .

Notice that the ball is only accelerating while it's in contact with the racket.
The instant the ball loses contact with the racket, it stops accelerating, and
sails off in a straight line at whatever speed it had when it left the strings.

scoundrel [369]

The gravitational force on the woman is A) 500 N

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the woman during her fall:

  • The force of gravity, F_G, acting downward
  • The air resistance, F_D, acting upward

According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the woman is equal to the product between the woman's mass and her acceleration:

\sum F=ma

where m is the mass of the woman and a her acceleration.

The net force can be written as

\sum F = F_G - F_D

Also, we know that the woman falls at a constant velocity (5 m/s), this means that her acceleration is zero:

a=0

Combining the equations together, we get:

F_G-F_D = 0

which means that the magnitude of the gravitational force is equal to the magnitude of the air resistance:

F_G=F_D=500 N
