Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is a=2,800m/s^{2}

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, v_{i}=-30m/s, final speed has a positive direction, v_{f}=26m/s, \Delta t=20ms=0.020s and mass m_{b}.

<u>Initial momentum</u>

p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s

<u>final momentum</u>

p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Impulse</u>

I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Average Force</u>

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}

<u>Average acceleration</u>

F=ma, so a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}.

Therefore, a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

According to the second Newton's Law,

<em>✔ We have : F = m x a ⇔ m = F/a </em>

  • m = 3000/15
  • m = 200 kg

The mass of the object is therefore 200 kg.

What is the net force exerted on a 28.8 kg shopping cart that accelerates at a rate of 2.88 m/s^2?​
Mama L [17]

Answer:

<h2>82.94 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 28.8 × 2.88 = 82.944

We have the final answer as

<h3>82.94 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

When would the temperature and thermal energy of an object differ?
kodGreya [7K]

The difference between temperature and thermal energy is that temperature measures the average kinetic speed of molecule and thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all particles in a given substance.
