You are playing catch with a friend in a moving train. When you toss the ball in the direction the train is moving, how does the

speed of the ball appear to an observer standing at rest outside the train?
I know it appears to be traveling faster than the train, but I don't know the technicalities

I think to an observer outside the train, the speed of the ball will actually look like more than the speed of the train.

Answer:

The average force the golf club exerts on the ball is 600 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that force, F, is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum produced

F = m× (v₂ - v₁)/(Δt)

The given parameters of the motion of the ball are;

The mass of the ball, m = 45 g = 0.045 kg

The initial velocity of the ball, v₁ = 0 m/s

The speed with which the ball was hit by the golfer, v₂ = 40 m/s

The duration of contact between the golf club and the ball, Δt = 3 ms = 0.003 seconds (s)

By Newton's law of motion, the average force, 'F', which the golf club exerts on the ball is therefore, given as follows;

F = 0.045 kg × (40 m/s - 0 m/s)/(0.003 s) = 600 N

The average force the golf club exerts on the ball = F = 600 N.

A girl pushes on a table with a 5-newton force directed to the east. Her friend pushes on the same table with a 10- newton force
nalin [4]

Think like this: 10 is twice as much as 5.

Answer A pushes 2 squares east and 4 squares sout, being doubled just as 10 is to 5. Happy to help :)

A hot air balloon is traveling vertically upward at a constant speed of 4.5 m/s. When it is 28 m above the ground, a package is
ella [17]

Answer:

1.97 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 21=4.5t+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow 21=-4.5t-4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2+4.5t-28=0\\\Rightarrow 49t^2+45t-280=0

Solving the above equation we get

t=\frac{-45+\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}, \frac{-45-\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}\\\Rightarrow t=1.97, -2.89

So, the time the package was in the air is 1.97 seconds

In which one of the following situations is zero net work done? A) A ball rolls down an inclined plane. B) A physics student str
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The work done can be given by the mechanical energy used to do work, i.e., Kinetic energy and potential energy provided to do the work.

In all the cases, except option D, the energy provided to do the useful work is not zero and hence work done is not zero.  

In option D, the box is being pulled with constant velocity, making the acceleration zero and thus Kinetic energy of the system is zero. Hence work done in this case is zero.
