Alex throws a 0.15-kg rubber ball down onto the floor. The ball’s speed just before impact is 6.5 m/s and just after is 3.5 m/s.

If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.050 s, what is the magnitude of the average force applied by the floor on the ball?

Answer:

F = 30 N  Directed up

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the momentum and momentum relationship.

      I = ΔP

     I = ∫ F dt

As we are asked for the average force, that leaves the integral, giving

    I = F t

    F t = m v_{f} - m v₀

    F = m (v_{f}-v₀) / t

Note that, if you define the upward positive direction, the initial velocity is negative

Let's calculate

     F = 0.15 (3.5 - (-6.5)) / 0.050

     F = 30 N

Levart [38]

Answer:

the rate that the energy of a system is transformed

Explanation:

We can define energy as the capacity or ability to do work. Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the rate at which energy is transformed. It can also be regarded as the time rate of energy transfer. In older physics literature, power is sometimes referred to as activity.

Power is given by energy/time. Its unit is watt which is defined as joule per second. Another popular unit of power is horsepower. 1 horsepower = 746 watts.

Very large magnitude of power is measured in killowats and megawatts.

what is the difference between stirring hot soup with a wooden spoon and a metal spoon? what physical property is being observed
AnnyKZ [126]

Wooden spoons don't quickly heat to hot temperatures not nearly as fast as metal does. Metal conducts heat faster than wood — if the head of the spoon is in a hot liquid, the handle will get hot faster if it's made out of a metal.

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

\lambda_2 = 573.3 nm

Explanation:

As we know that the position of maximum intensity on the screen is given as

y = \frac{N\lambda L}{d}

here we know that

\lambda = wavelength

L = distance of the screen

d = distance between two slits

now we know that the position of 8th maximum intensity is same as that of 9th maximum on the screen

so we have

\frac{N_1\lambda_1 L}{d} = \frac{N_2 \lambda_2 L}{d}

so here we have

8 (645 nm) = 9 \lambda_2

\lambda_2 = 573.3 nm

Suppose the electrostatic force between two electrons is F. What is the electrostatic force between an electron and a proton
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

D. −F

Explanation:

the rest of the answers are

2/3F

The force is represented as a positive quantity and is repulsive.

Electrostatic force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

The direction of the force changes, and the magnitude of the force quadruples.

hope this helps sorry if i was too late! :)
