A tennis ball with a velocity of +10.0 m/s to the right is thrown perpendicularly at a wall. After striking the wall, the ball r

ebounds in the opposite direction with a velocity of â8.0 m/s to the left. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.012 s, what is the average acceleration of the ball while it is in contact with the wall?

Answer:

-1500 m/s2

Explanation:

So the ball velocity changes from 10m/s into the wall to -8m/s in a totally opposite direction within a time span of 0.012s. Then we can calculate the average acceleration of the ball as the change in velocity over a unit of time.

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{-8 - 10}{0.012} = \frac{-18}{0.012} = -1500 m/s^2

A 120.0 kg crate is placed on a 15.00°
Citrus2011 [14]

F = 2820.1 N

Explanation:

Let the (+)x-axis be up along the slope. The component of the weight of the crate along the slope is -mgsin15° (pointing down the slope). The force that keeps the crate from sliding is F. Therefore, we can write Newton's 2nd law along the x-axis as

Fnet = ma = 0 (a = 0 no sliding)

= F - mgsin15°

= 0

or

F = mgsin15°

= (120 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)sin15°

= 2820.1 N

A- what constant acceleration, in SI units, must a car have to gofrom zero to 60 mph in 10 s?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

(a) 0.017m/s^2

(b) 17/100,000

(c) 0.17m, 0.558ft

Explanation:

(a) speed = 60mph = 60m/1h × 1h/3600s = 0.017m/s, time = 10s

Acceleration (a) = speed ÷ time = 0.017m/s ÷ 10s = 0.0017m/s^2

(b) g = 9.8m/s^2, a = 0.0017m/s^2

a/g = 0.0017/9.8 = 0.00017 = 17/100,000

(c) Distance = speed × time = 0.017m/s × 10s = 0.17m

Distance in foot = 0.17 × 3.2808ft = 0.558ft

Suppose that the acceleration of a model rocket is proportional to the difference between 160 ft/sec and the rocket's velocity.
Levart [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given ,

dv / dt = k ( 160 - v )

dv / ( 160 - v ) = kdt

ln ( 160 - v ) = kt + c , where c is a constant

when t = 0 , v = 0

Putting the values , we have

c = ln 160

ln ( 160 - v ) = kt + ln 160

ln ( 160 - v / 160 ) = kt

(160 - v ) / 160 = e^{kt}

1 - v / 160 = e^{kt }

v / 160 = 1 - e^{kt }

v = 160 ( 1 - e^{kt } )

differentiating ,

dv / dt = - 160k e^{kt }

acceleration a   = - 160k e^{kt }

given when t = 0 , a = 280

280 = - 160 k

k = - 175

a = - 160 x - 175 e^{kt}

a = 28000 e^{kt}

when a = 128  t = ?

128 = 28000 e^{kt}

e^{kt } = .00457

What's needed to know
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
You're a little late.  But if you want some short, quick rules, then these are
a couple that I would take in with me (stored only in my brain, of course):

-- If something is not accelerating or moving at all, then all the forces on it
must add up to zero.    That could even mean a hanging rope.

-- In a vertical rope, the tension in it is the same everywhere in the rope.
The tension is the weight of whatever is hanging from the bottom.

That's really all I'm sure of, based on your hazy, fuzzy description of
what you've been doing in class.  I don't want to get into things that
you might not have learned yet, and confuse you.
