Answer:

280 N

Explanation:

Applying Newton's third second law of motion,

F = m(v-u)/t................... Equation 1

Where F = Magnitude of the average force on the ball during contact, v = final velocity of the ball, u = initial velocity of the ball, t = time of contact of the ball and the wall.

Note: Let the direction of the initial velocity of the ball be positive

Given: m = 4 kg, u = 3.0 m/s, v = -4.0 m/s (bounce off), t = 0.1 s

Substitute into equation 1

F = 4(-4-3)/0.1

F = 4(-7)/0.1

F = -28/0.1

F = -280 N.

Note: The negative sign tells that the force on the ball act in opposite direction to the initial motion of the ball

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:0.084 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Total time=27 min 43.6 s=1663.6 s

total distance=10 km

Initial distance d_1=8.13 km

time taken=25 min =1500 s

initial speed v_1=\frac{8.13\times 1000}{25\times 60}=5.6 m/s

after 8.13 km mark steve started to accelerate

speed after 60 s

v_2=v_1+at

v_2=5.6+a\times 60

distance traveled in 60 sec

d_2=v_1\times 60+\frac{a60^2}{2}

d_2=336+1800 a

time taken in last part of journey

t_3=1663.6-1560=103.6 s

distance traveled in this time

d_3=v_2\times t_3

d_3=\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

and total distance=d_1+d_2+d_3

10000=8.13\times 1000+336+1800 a+\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

1870=336+1800 a+\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

a=0.084 m/s^2

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Orbital Time Period is 24 years

Explanation:

This can be explained by the definition of time period.

Time period can be defined as the time taken by an object to complete one cycle, here, time taken to complete one revolution.

Also, we know that an extra solar planet which is also called as an exo planet is that planet which is outside our solar system and orbits any star other than our sun. The system in consideration is extra solar system with a single planet.

Therefore, the time taken by the parent star to move about its mass center is the orbital time period that is 24 years.
