A tennis player is hitting a 58 gram tennis ball back across the net. When the racquet and the ball first make contact, the ball

is moving at 30 m/s 15⁰ below the positive x-axis. When the ball leaves the racquet, it is moving at 40 m/s 15⁰ above the negative x-axis. If the ball is in contact with the racquet for 0.08 s, what is the average net force acting on the tennis ball while it is in contact with the racquet? Air resistance and the force of gravity are negligible when compared to the force by the tennis racquet.

Answer:

The net force acting on the tennis ball while it is in contact with the racquet is 50.73 N

Explanation:

The impulse-momentum theorem said that the net impulse is equal to the change of the momentum, this is:

\overrightarrow{I}=\varDelta\overrightarrow{P}\,\,(1)

but the net impulse is too the net force times the change in time:

\overrightarrow{I}=\overrightarrow{F}\varDelta t\,\,(2)

so using (2) on (1) we have:

\overrightarrow{F}\varDelta t=\varDelta\overrightarrow{P}\,\,(3)

Decomposing that on x and y components:

F_{x}\varDelta t=\varDelta P_{x}=P_{fx}-P_{ox}\,\,(3)

F_{y}\varDelta t=\varDelta P_{y}=P_{fy}-P_{oy}\,\,(4)

(See figure below) with Pfx = m*vfx= m*vf*cos(15°)=(0.058kg)(40m/s)cos(15°),

Pox = -m*vox= m*vo*cos(15°)=-(0.058kg)(30m/s)cos(15°), the same analysis to Pfy and Poy gives

Pfy=(0.058kg)(40m/s)sin(15°), Poy=-(0.058kg)(30m/s)sin(15°), using those values on (3) and (4) and solving for Fy and Fx:

F_{x}=\frac{(0.058)(40)cos(15\text{\textdegree})-(-(0.058)(30)cos(15\text{\textdegree}))}{0.08}\simeq49N\,\,(5)

F_{y}=\frac{(0.058)(40)sin(15\text{\textdegree})-(-(0.058)(30)sin(15\text{\textdegree}))}{0.08}\simeq13.13N\,\,(6)

So the net force acting on the tennis ball while it is in contact with the racquet is:

F=\sqrt{F_{x}^{2}+F_{y}^{2}}\simeq50.73N

Can someone help me with this please?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

C2, C1, C4, C5 and C6 are in parallel. Therefore, we use the formula Cp = C1 + C2 + ....

Cp = C2 + C1 + C4 + C5 + C6 = ( 7 * 10 ^-3) + (18 * 10^-6) + (0.8F) + (200 * 10^-3 F) + (750 * 10^-6) = 1.008F

Now, Cp will become one capacitor and it will be aligned with C3, therefore it will now become a circuit in series.

We use the formula: 1/Cs = 1/C1 + 1/C2 + .... + ....1/Cn

Thus,

1/Cs = 1/C3 + 1/Cp

1/Cs = 1/(14 * 10^-3 F) + 1/(1.008F)

Cs = 1.4 * 10 ^-2 or if we do not round too much it will give exactly 0.0138 F

So the answer should be a)

Consider the image above. Vi = the initial velocity and Vf = the final velocity. Is there acceleration? Explain your answer.
lutik1710 [3]
<span><span>Velocity is a vector, and the initial and final ones are in opposite directions.
There must have been acceleration in order to change the direction of motion.</span>

A) No. The initial and final velocities are the same.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", and the initial and final velocities are NOT the same.

B) Yes. The ball had to slow down in order to change direction.
This is poor, and not the correct choice.
The "Yes" is correct, but the explanation is bad.
Acceleration does NOT require any change in speed.

C) No. Acceleration is the change in velocity. The ball's velocity is constant.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", there IS acceleration, and the ball's velocity is NOT constant.

D) Yes. Even though the initial and final velocities are the same, there is a change in direction for the ball.
This choice is misleading too.
The "Yes" is correct ... there IS acceleration.
The change in direction is the reason.
The initial and final velocities are NOT the same.  Only the speeds are.
