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

What is the mass of a rock lifted 2 meters off the ground that has 196 J of potential energy?
eimsori [14]

Answer:

10kg

Explanation:

Let PE=potential energy

PE=196J

g(gravitational force)=9.8m/s^2

h(change in height)=2m

m=?

PE=m*g*(change in h)

196=m*9.8*2

m=10kg

Janice has just measured the density of an object. Which value is possible? (Density: D = )
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

By definition, the density of an object is given by:

D = \frac{M}{V}

Where,

M: mass of the object

V: volume of the object

Since the mass and volume of an object are numerical values greater than zero, then it follows that:

D> 0

It is important to respect the units of each measure.

For this case we can use the grams for the mass and cubic centimeters for the volume.

Answer:

A possible value for density is given by:

6 \frac{g}{cm^3}
