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

A child of mass 27 kg swings at the end of an elastic cord. At the bottom of the swing, the child's velocity is horizontal, and
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of child = 27 kg

Speed of child in horizontal = 10 m/s

Length = 3.40 m

There is a rate of change of the perpendicular component of momentum.

Centripetal force acts always towards the center.

We need to calculate the magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum

Using formula of momentum

\dfrac{dp}{dt}=F

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=\dfrac{27\times10^2}{3.40}

\dfrac{dP}{dt}=794.11\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.

Ashley squirrel, named Jackie, rides on a bicycle with a constant kinetic energy of 3.6J. The mass of combination of Jackie and
yKpoI14uk [10]

The velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328 m/s.

Explanation:

From the given data the constant kinetic energy is 3.6 J. The mass of combination is 0.65 kg. To find the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle the formula  is

KE = 0.5 x mv2.

To find velocity,

V2=ke/(0.5×m)

V=\sqrt{(ke/(0.5*m)

v= 3.6/(0.5×0.65)

=\sqrt (11077/10)/10

v= 3.328 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328m/s.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed = distance / time

Given speed = 127 m/s .

distance = 1.58 m

time = ?

Putting the values in the formula

127 m/s = 1.58 m / time

time = 1.58 / 127 s

= 12.44 ms .
