A 0.140-kg baseball is dropped from rest. It has a speed of 1.20 m/s just before it hits the ground, and it rebounds with an upw

ard speed of 1.00 m/s. The ball is in contact with the ground for 0.0140 s.
Required:
What is the average force exerted by the ground on the ball during this time? Also explain whether it's upwards or downwards.

Answer:

22 N upward

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t....................... Equation 1

Where F = Average force exerted by the ground on the ball, m = mass of the baseball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time of contact

Note: Let upward be negative and downward be positive

Given: m = 0.14 kg, v = -1.00 m/s, u = 1.2 m/s, t = 0.014 s

Substitute into equation 1

F = 0.14(-1-1.2)/0.014

F = 0.14(-2.2)/0.014

F = 10(-2.2)

F = -22 N

Note the negative sign shows that the force act upward

Suppose that Hubble's constant were H0 = 51 km/s/Mly (which is not its actual value). What would the approximate age of the univ
bija089 [108]

Given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.

Given the data in the question;

Hubble's constant; H_0 = 51km/s/Mly

Age of the universe; t = \ ?

We know that, the reciprocal of the Hubble's constant ( H_0 ) gives an estimate of the age of the universe ( t ). It is expressed as:

Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}

Now,

Hubble's constant; H_0 = 51km/s/Mly

We know that;

1\ light\ years = 9.46*10^{15}m

so

1\ Million\ light\ years = [9.46 * 10^{15}m] * 10^6 = 9.46 * 10^{21}m

Therefore;

H_0 = 51\frac{km}{\frac{s}{Mly} } = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ Mly}  \\\\H_0 = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ (9.46*10^{21}m)} \\\\H_0 =  5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}\\

Now, we input this Hubble's constant value into our equation;

Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}\\\\t = \frac{1}{ 5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}} \\\\t = 1.855 * 10^{17}s\\\\We\ convert\ to\ years\\\\t =  \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{60*60*24*365}yrs \\\\t = \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{31536000}yrs\\\\t = 5.88 *10^9 years

Therefore, given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.
