scZoUnD [109]
The correct option is (B) <span>Aluminum is a metal and is shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.

Since Aluminium is in group 13, and all the elements in group 13 are either metals or metalloids(Boron). Hence we are left with option (B) and (D). Boron is the only metalloid in group 13 and aluminium is a metal(not a metalloid); therefore, we are left with only one option which is Option (B). And Aluminium is </span>shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.<span>

Nataly [62]

Answer

given,

mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg

velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s

mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg

velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s

a) momentum of ball before collision

   P₁ = m v

   P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7

   P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s

b) momentum of ball after collision

   P₂ = m v'

   P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)

   P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s

c) change in momentum

    Δ P = P₂ - P₁

    Δ P = -1.696 -1.535

    Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s

d) using conservation of momentum

  initial speed of racket = 0 m/s

  M u + m v = Mu' + m v

  M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)

  0.331 u' = 3.232

     u' = 9.76 m/s

change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
