Why should a tennis player "swing through" when hitting a tennis ball?​

Physics
1 answer:
kondaur [170]3 years ago
7 0

If a tennis player does not swing through, meaning they stop swinging the moment they make contact with the ball, they would lose the majority of their power. <em>The momentum that they had built up during the swing is lost the moment they stop swinging</em>, meaning that the ball is hit with a low amount of power.

<em>If the tennis player swings through the whole time they hit the ball, then they keep their momentum as they hit the ball.</em> There is a much higher power level when swinging through than if you were to stop your swing when you hit the ball.

A particle is constrained to move round a circle radius 382400km and makes a single revolution in 27.3 days. (i). Find the veloc
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The velocity and acceleration of the particle moving round the circle is;

<em><u>Velocity = 162.12 m/s</u></em>

<em><u>Velocity = 162.12 m/sAcceleration = 6.873 × 10^(-5) m/s²</u></em>

We are given;

Radius of circle; 382400 km = 382400000 m

Time; t = 27.3 days = 27.3 × 86400 s = 2358720 s

Now, formula for velocity is;

Velocity = distance/time

Thus;

I) velocity = 382400000/2358720

Velocity = 162.12 m/s

II) Acceleration is centripetal acceleration and is given by the formula;

a = v²/r

a = 162.12²/382400000

a = 6.873 × 10^(-5) m/s²

An object with total mass mtotal = 16.2 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.7 k
vichka [17]

Answer:

1.) 0 kgm/s

2) 6.3 kg

3) -0.0978 m/s

4)

5)

6)

An object with total mass mtotal = 16.2 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.7 kg moves up and to the left at an angle of θ1 = 23° above the –x axis with a speed of v1 = 25.4 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 5.2 kg moves down and to the right an angle of θ2 = 28° to the right of the -y axis at a speed of v2 = 23.8 m/s.

2) What is the mass of the third piece?

3) What is the x-component of the velocity of the third piece?

4) What is the y-component of the velocity of the third piece?

5) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the center of mass of the pieces after the collision?

6) Calculate the increase in kinetic energy of the pieces during the explosion

Explanation:

Since explosions and collisions follow the law of conservation of Momentum.

1) Magnitude of the final momentum of the system = Magnitude of the initial momentum of the system

Since the body was initially at rest,

Magnitude of the initial momentum of the system = 0 kgm/s

Hence, Magnitude of the final momentum of the system is also equal to 0 kgm/s.

2) mass of the third piece

Sum of all the masses = 16.2 kg

4.7 + 5.2 + c = 16.2

c = 6.3 kg

3) doing an x-component balance on momentum

(4.7)×(-25.4 cos 23) + (5.2)×(23.8 cos 28) + (6.3)(v) = 0

-0.6163 + 6.3v = 0

v = -0.0978 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

What happens to the atomic number of an atom when the number of neutrons in the nucleus of that atom increases? a It decreases b
kupik [55]

Answer:

It remains the same

Explanation:

It remains the same. This is because the number of protons doesn't change and the number of protons determines the atomic number.

A 6.99-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +341 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s
Ratling [72]

Answer:

a). 1.218 m/s

b). R=2.8^{-3}

Explanation:

m_{bullet}=6.99g*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=6.99x10^{-3}kg

v_{bullet}=341\frac{m}{s}

Momentum of the motion the first part of the motion have a momentum that is:

P_{1}=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}

P_{1}=6.99x10^{-3}kg*341\frac{m}{s} \\P_{1}=2.3529

The final momentum is the motion before the action so:

a).

P_{2}=m_{b1}*v_{fbullet}+(m_{b2}+m_{bullet})*v_{f}}

P_{2}=1.202 kg*0.554\frac{m}{s}+(1.523kg+6.99x10^{-3}kg)*v_{f}

P_{1}=P_{2}

2.529=0.665+(1.5299)*v_{f}\\v_{f}=\frac{1.864}{1.5299}\\v_{f}=1.218 \frac{m}{s}

b).

kinetic energy

K=\frac{1}{2}*m*(v)^{2}

Kinetic energy after

Ka=\frac{1}{2}*1.202*(0.554)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*1.523*(1.218)^{2}\\Ka=1.142 J

Kinetic energy before

Kb=\frac{1}{2}*mb*(vf)^{2}\\Kb=\frac{1}{2}*6.99x10^{-3}kg*(341)^{2}\\Kb=406.4J

Ratio =\frac{Ka}{Kb}

R=\frac{1.14}{406.4}\\R=2.8x10^{-3}
