OPTIONS :
A.) the force that the ball exerts on the wall
B.) the frictional force between the wall and the ball
C.) the acceleration of the ball as it approaches the wall
D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball
Answer: D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball
Explanation: The normal force acting on an object can be explained as a force experienced by an object when it comes in contact with a flat surface. The normal force acts perpendicular to the surface of contact.
In the scenario described above, Erica's tennis ball experiences an opposite reaction after hitting the wall.This is in relation to Newton's 3rd law of motion, which states that, For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
The reaction force in this case is the normal force exerted on the ball by the wall perpendicular to the surface of contact.
I think the answer is periodic motion.
The ball took half of the total time ... 4 seconds ... to reach its highest
point, where it began to fall back down to the point of release.
At its highest point, its velocity changed from upward to downward.
At that instant, its velocity was zero.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². That means that an object that's
acted on only by gravity gains 9.8 m/s of downward speed every second.
-- If the object is falling downward, it moves 9.8 m/s faster every second.
-- If the object is tossed upward, it moves 9.8 m/s slower every second.
The ball took 4 seconds to lose all of its upward speed. So it must have
been thrown upward at (4 x 9.8 m/s) = 39.2 m/s .
(That's about 87.7 mph straight up. Somebody had an amazing pitching arm.)
Answer:
0.0034 sec
Explanation:
L = initial length
T = initial time period = 2.51 s
Time period is given as
L = 1.56392 m
L' = new length
ΔT = Rise in temperature = 142 °C
α = coefficient of linear expansion = 19 x 10⁻⁶ °C
New length due to rise of temperature is given as
L' = L + LαΔT
L' = 1.56392 + (1.56392) (19 x 10⁻⁶) (142)
L' = 1.56814 m
T' = New time period
New time period is given as
T' = 2.5134 sec
Change in time period is given as
ΔT = T' - T
ΔT = 2.5134 - 2.51
ΔT = 0.0034 sec
