A. How does the force on the small ball compare to the force on the basketball?

Answer:

Force will be same in magnitude but opposite in sign

Explanation:

As per Newton's III law every action has equal and opposite reaction force.

So here when small ball apply force on large ball then the two forces will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction

B. Compare the total momentum of the two balls before and after the collision?

Answer:

Total momentum of two balls will remains same before and after collision

Explanation:

As we know that there is no external force on the system of two bodies so the sum of momentum of two balls before and after collision must be same.

So we can say initial momentum of small ball = final momentum of small + big ball together.

C. The mass of the basketball is 600 grams and its velocity before the small ball hits is 0 m/s. The mass of the small ball is 100 grams and its velocity is +5 m/s before the collision and -4 m/s afterward. What is the velocity of the basketball after the collision?

Answer:

v = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

By momentum conservation equation we have

m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

100(5) = 100(-4) + 600 v

900 = 600 v

v = 1.5 m/s

Part A.
The forces are the same because the force from the smaller ball it transferring its Energy through the basketball and it's rebounding as Connecticut Energy back up to the smaller ball

An architect is redesigning a rectangular room on the blueprints of a house. She decides to double the width of the room, increa
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:3.6

Explanation:

Given

Architect decide to double the width

length increases by 50 percent

height increases by 20 percent

Let L,B,H be length,height and width of rectangular room

L'=1.5L

B'=2B

H'=1.2H

therefore new volume V'=L'\times B'\times H'

V'=1.5L\times 2B\times 1.2H

V'=3.6LBH

new volume is 3.6 times the original

madreJ [45]

Explanation:

a) 7.5= 111.1×2°= 0.1111×2^3

which can also be written as

(1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16)×8

sign of mantissa:=0

Mantissa(9 bits): 111100000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 0011

the final for this is:011110000000011

b) -20.25= -10100.01×2^0= -0.1010001×2^5

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 101000100

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1101000100000101

c)-1/64= -.000001×2^0= -0.1×2^{-5}

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 100000000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1100000000100101

In Example 2.12, two circus performers rehearse a trick in which a ball and a dart collide. Horatio stands on a platform 6.4 m a
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

time of collision is

t = 0.395 s

h = 5.63 m

so they will collide at height of 5.63 m from ground

Explanation:

initial speed of the ball when it is dropped down is

v_1 = 0

similarly initial speed of the object which is projected by spring is given as

v_2 = 16.2 m/s

now relative velocity of object with respect to ball

v_r = 16.2 m/s

now since we know that both are moving under gravity so their relative acceleration is ZERO and the relative distance between them is 6.4 m

d = v_r t

6.4 = 16.2 t

t = 0.395 m

Now the height attained by the object in the same time is given as

h = v_2 t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 16.2(0.395) - \frac{1}{2}(9.81).395^2

h = 5.63 m

so they will collide at height of 5.63 m from ground
