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

A block of weight 1200N is on an incline plane of 30° with the horizontal, a force P is applied to the body parallel to the plan
pshichka [43]

Answer:

a)  P = 807.85 N,  b)  P = 392.15 N,  c)  P = 444.12 N

Explanation:

For this exercise, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the direction rising as positive, and the y-axis perpendicular to the plane.

Let's use trigonometry to break down the weight

         sin θ = Wₓ / W

         cos θ = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin θ

         W_y = W cos θ

         Wₓ = 1200 sin 30 = 600 N

          W_y = 1200 cos 30 = 1039.23 N

Y axis  

      N- W_y = 0

      N = W_y = 1039.23 N

Remember that the friction force always opposes the movement

a) in this case, the system will begin to move upwards, which is why friction is static

       P -Wₓ -fr = 0

       P = Wₓ + fr

as the system is moving the friction coefficient is dynamic

      fr = μ N

      fr = 0.20 1039.23

      fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

       P = 600+ 207.85

       P = 807.85 N

b) to avoid downward movement implies that the system is stopped, therefore the friction coefficient is static

        P + fr -Wx = 0

       fr = μ N

       fr = 0.20 1039.23

        fr = 207.85 N

we substitute

        P =  Wₓ -fr

        P = 600 - 207,846

        P = 392.15 N

c) as the movement is continuous, the friction coefficient is dynamic

         P - Wₓ + fr = 0

         P = Wₓ - fr

         fr = 0.15 1039.23

         fr = 155.88 N

         P = 600 - 155.88

         P = 444.12 N

Can someone give me an example or explanation of calculating energy from voltage? Many thanks!
antoniya [11.8K]
Expression to calculate energy from voltage: E= V*Q where E= energy, V= voltage, and Q= charge

Additional help:
-To find the Voltage ( V )
[ V = I x R ] V (volts) = I (amps) x R (Ω)

-To find the Current ( I )
[ I = V ÷ R ] I (amps) = V (volts) ÷ R (Ω)

-To find the Resistance ( R )
[ R = V ÷ I ] R (Ω) = V (volts) ÷ I (amps)

I hope that helps to some extent-

Cole is riding a sled with initial speed of 5 m/s from west to east. the frictional force of 50 n exists due west. the mass of t
stepan [7]
We can calculate the acceleration of Cole due to friction using Newton's second law of motion:
F=ma
where F=-50 N is the frictional force (with a negative sign, since the force acts against the direction of motion) and m=100 kg is the mass of Cole and the sled. By rearranging the equation, we find
a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{-50 N}{100 kg}=-0.5 m/s^2

Now we can use the following formula to calculate the distance covered by Cole and the sled before stopping:
a= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}
where
v_f=0 is the final speed of the sled
v_i=5 m/s is the initial speed
d is the distance covered

By rearranging the equation, we find d:
d= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2a}= \frac{-(5 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot (-0.5 m/s^2)}=25 m
