How does hitting a ball with a tennis racquet involve action and reaction forces?

Answer:

In a tennis match, the racket exerts the action force on the ball and, as the ball hits it, it exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the racket. The rocket launches because it pushes on the gas coming out the back end for the action force, while the gas pushes the rocket upward with a reaction force.

When the displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position, what fraction of the

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The ratio is KE : TM = 0.75

Explanation:

from the question we are told that

The displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position

Generally the total mechanical energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

$TM = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2$

Here k is the spring constant , A is the total displacement of the the mass from maximum compression to maximum extension of the spring

Generally this total mechanical energy is mathematically represented as

$TM = KE + PE$

=> $KE = TM - PE$

Here the potential energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

$PE = \frac{1}{ 2} * k * [ x ]^2$

Here x is the displacement of the mass from maximum compression or extension of the spring to equilibrium position and the value is

$x = \frac{A}{2}$

$PE = \frac{1}{ 2} * k * [ \frac{A}{2} ]^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2 - \frac{1}{2} * k * [\frac{A}{2} ]^2$

=> $KE = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2 - \frac{1}{8} * k * A ^2$

=> $KE = 0.375 * k * A^2$

So the ratio of $KE : TM$ is mathematically represented as

$\frac{KE}{TM} = \frac{0.375 k A^2 }{0.5 k A^2}$

=> $\frac{KE}{TM} = 0.75$

The constant forces F1 = 8 + 29 + 32 N and F2 = 48 - 59 - 22 N act together on a particle during a displacement from the point A

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

- 600 J

Explanation:

A (20, 15, 0 ) m

B (0, 0, 7) m

$\overrightarrow{F_{1}}=8\widehat{i}+29\widehat{j}+32\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{F_{2}}=48\widehat{i}-59\widehat{j}-22\widehat{k}$

Net force

$\overrightarrow{F}=\overrightarrow{F_{1}}+\overrightarrow{F_{2}}$

$\overrightarrow{F}}=\left ( 8+48 \right )\widehat{i}+\left ( 29-59 \right )\widehat{j}+\left ( 32-22 \right )\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{F}}=56\widehat{i}-30\widehat{j}+10\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=\overrightarrow{OB}-\overrightarrow{OA}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=\left ( 0-20 \right )\widehat{i}+\left ( 0-15 \right )\widehat{j}+\left ( 7-0 \right )\widehat{k}$

$\overrightarrow{S}=-20\widehat{i}-15\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k}$

Work done is defined as

$W = \overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{S}$

$W = \left ( 56\widehat{i}-30\widehat{j}+10\widehat{k} \right ).\left (-20\widehat{i}-15\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k} \right )$

W = -1120 + 450 + 70

W = - 600 J
