Answer:
Probability of tunneling is 
Solution:
As per the question:
Velocity of the tennis ball, v = 120 mph = 54 m/s
Mass of the tennis ball, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg
Thickness of the tennis ball, t = 2.0 mm = 
Max velocity of the tennis ball, 
= 89 m/s
Now,
The maximum kinetic energy of the tennis ball is given by:
Kinetic energy of the tennis ball, KE' = 
Now, the distance the ball can penetrate to is given by:
Thus
Now,
We can calculate the tunneling probability as:
Taking log on both the sides:
Hello!
First one we can use that PE=mgh so we have
4.37*10^5J/(9.12*10^3kg*9.80m/s^2)= 4.89m
Second one we can use Newton’s Second Law
F=ma and in this case F=mg so we have
g= 3.28*10^-2N/6*10^-3kg = 5.47m/s^2
Hope this helps. Any questions please ask. Thank you.
There are two ways to solve this. The longer way is to use those equations to calculate numbers for total distance.
The easier way is to find the area under the graph. That's right, AREA UNDER VELOCITY-TIME graph is the TOTAL DISTANCE travelled!
it's a shortcut.
Let's split up the area into a triangle and rectangle:
Triangle = 0.5(4-0)(10-0) = 20 m
Rectangle = (6-4)(10-0) = 20 m
Total distance = 40 m!
Answer: 1.5 m/s
Explanation:
9-3/5-1= 6/4= 3/2= 1.5
Used x2-x1/t2-t1 to get average velocity from point b to c
