4% of 110 is 4.4. So the possible range of speeds is the interval from 110-4.4 till 110+4.4.
105.6 till 114.4

ss7ja [257]

Distance , d = a+b $t^2$

The unit of d is in meter and t is in seconds.

So the unit of a a must be meter.

Now we have unit of b $t^2$ is meter.

So unit of b* $second^2$ = meter

Unit of b = meter/ $second^2$

So unit of a = m and unit of b = m/ $s^2$ .

A 0.03 kg golf ball is hit off the tee at a speed of 34 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 0.003 s. What is the

Liula [17]

Answer:

The average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 0.03 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 34 m/s

Time of contact, $\Delta t=0.003\ s$

We need to find the average force on ball by the golf club. We know that the rate of change of momentum is equal to the net external force applied such that :

$F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv-mu}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.03\ kg\times 34\ m/s}{0.003\ s}\\\\F=340\ N$

So, the average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Dafna11 [192]

To solve this problem we will make a graph that allows us to understand the components acting on the body. In this way we will have the centripetal Force and the Force by gravity generating a total component. If we take both forces and get the trigonometric ratio of the tangent we would have the angle is,

$T_x = nsinA = \frac{mv^2}{r}$
