A tennis ball with a speed of 11.3 m/s is moving perpendicular to a wall. after striking the wall, the ball rebounds in the oppo

site direction with a speed of 7.2207 m/s. if the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.00803 s, what is the average acceleration of the ball while it is in contact with the wall? take "toward the wall" to be the positive direction. answer in units of m/s 2 .

To calculate the average acceleration of the ball we use the formula,

a= \frac{v_{f} -v_{i}}{t}

Here, v_{f} is the final velocity of the ball and v_{i} is the initial velocity of the ball t is the time in contact with the wall.

Given v_{i} = 11.3 m/s towards the wall and v_{f} = 7.2207 m/s

away from the wall and t=0.00803 s.

Substituting these values in above formula , we get

a=\frac{(-7.2207 m/s)-11.3 m/s}{0.00803 s}

Herev_{f} is negative because ball is moving away from the wall.

a= - 2306 .4 \ m/s^{2}

Therefore, average acceleration of the ball is - 2306 .4 \ m/s^{2} (away from the wall).

lisov135 [29]
<span>Average velocity can be calculated by determining the total displacement divided by the total time of travel. The average velocity of an object does not tell us anything about what happens to it between the starting point and ending point. Average velocity is different from average speed because it considers the direction of travel and the overall change in position.</span>

What’s the difference between the offspring of an asexual organism and a sexual organism
laiz [17]
The offspring of an asexual organism (since asexual reproduction only requires one parent) will be completely identical to the parent, like bacteria or fungi. The offspring of a sexual organism (since sexual reproduction requires two organisms) will be a combination of both parents, like animals or (some) flowers.

an ice cube is placed in the sun later there is a puddle of water later still the.puddle is gone what kind of change has occured
TiliK225 [7]

Clear question is;

An ice cube is placed in the sun. Later there is a puddle of water. Later still the puddle is gone. What kind of change has occurred?

Answer:

Physical change.

Explanation:

There are two type of changes called physical change and chemical change.

In Physical changes, there is only change in the appearance of the substance and not its chemical composition. Whereas, in Chemical changes the substance changes entirely into another substance with a new chemical formula.

Now, for the ice cube, it has melted from a solid state to a liquid state. Thus, there is only a change in appearance and not its chemical composition. Thus, it's a physical change that has occurred.
