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

Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.0
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

f = 421.8 Hz

Explanation:

When she moved a distance of 1 m from mid point she observe first destructive interference due to two speakers

so we can say that path difference of sound due to two speakers will be equal to half of the wavelength

so path difference is given as

\Delta L = {3.5^2 + 12^2}^{0.5} - {1.5^2 + 12^2}^{0.5}

so it will be

\Delta L = 12.5 - 12.093

\Delta L = 0.4066

now we know that

\frac{\lambda}{2} = 0.4066

\lambda = 0.813

now frequency of sound is given as

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{343}{0.813}

f = 421.8 Hz

Which is an example of electrical energy being converted or changed into light energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]
When I see the word "which" at the beginning of your question,
I just KNOW that there's a list of choices printed right there
next to he part that you copied, and for some mysterious
reason, you decided not to let us see the choices.

Any flashlight, light bulb, laser, or spark ... like lightning ...
converts some electrical energy into some light energy.

A 10,000-watt radio station transmits at 535 kHz. Determine the number of joules transmitted per second. 10,000 J/s 10 J/s 535 J
REY [17]
1 nanowatt  =  1 nanojoule/sec
1 watt  =  1 joule/sec
10 watts  =  10 joules/sec
100 watts  =  100 joules/sec
742.914 watts  =  742.914 joules/sec
1,000 watts  =  1,000 joules/sec
10,000 watts  =  10,000 joules/sec
100,000 watts  =  100,000 joules/sec
1 megawatt  =  1 megajoule/sec
1 gigawatt  =  1 gigajoule/sec
1 petawatt  =  1 petajoule/sec

We don't care what frequency the transmission is using,
or who their morning DJ is.
