<u>Answer</u>:

The velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

let the following:

m₁ = mass of tennis racket = 0.311 kg

m₂ = mass of the ball = 0.057 kg

u₁ = velocity of tennis racket before collision = 30.3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the ball before collision = -19.2 m/s

v₁ = velocity of tennis racket after collision

v₂ = velocity of the ball after collision

Right (+) , Left (-)

An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains the same.

So, the total kinetic energy before collision = the total kinetic energy after collision.

So, 0.5 m₁ u₁² + 0.5 m₂ u₂² = 0.5 m₁ v₁² + 0.5 m₂ v₂²  ⇒ (1)

Also, the total momentum before collision = the total momentum after collision.

So, m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂  ⇒ (2)

Solving (1) and (2):

∴ v₁ = [ u₁ * (m₁ - m₂) + u₂ * 2m₂ ]/ (m₁ + m₂)

      = ( 30.3 * (0.311 - 0.057) - 19.2 * 2 * 0.057 ) / ( 0.311 + 0.057)

      = 14.966 m/s.

So, the velocity of the tennis racket after the collision 14.966 m/s.

How can we describe, model, and explain the material world, and are there limitations?
taurus [48]

Answer:· A model is a description of natural phenomenon that scientists can use to make predictions. A good model is both as accurate as possible and as simple as possible, which makes it not only powerful but also easy to understand. However, no matter how good they are, models will almost always have limitations.

Three forces act on an object. Two of the forces are at an angle of 100◦to each other and have magnitude 25N and 12N. The third
seraphim [82]

Answer:

F₄ = 29.819 N

Explanation:

Given

F₁ = (- 25*Cos 50° i + 25*Sin 50° j + 0 k) N

F₂ = (12*Cos 50° i + 12*Sin 50° j + 0 k) N

F₃ = (0 i + 0 j + 4 k) N

Then we have

F₁ + F₂ + F₃ + F₄ = 0

⇒   F₄ = - (F₁ + F₂ + F₃)

⇒   F₄ = - ((- 25*Cos 50° i + 25*Sin 50° j) N + (12*Cos 50° i + 12*Sin 50° j) N + (4 k) N) = (13*Cos 50° i - 37*Sin 50° j - 4 k) N

The magnitude of the force will be

F₄ = √((13*Cos 50°)² + (- 37*Sin 50°)² + (- 4)²) N = 29.819 N

Which of the following is not predicted by a higher inhibitory control during childhood
ololo11 [35]

-happiness

Explanation:

  • Happiness is a result of desires.
  • People are known to feel happy when some of their most important desires are fulfilled.
  • If desire is not important, people feel only greater or less satisfaction. But at one level, desires and happiness are excluded because when some desires are fulfilled they are extinguished, and only the feeling of happiness slowly fades.
  • Happiness should not be waited passively, it should not be expected that it will come from the outside through some happy event or that other people will make us happy through great love.
