Answer:

the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball

Explanation:

As Newton's third law states:

"when an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A".

If we apply this law to this problem, we can identify the ball as object A, and the wall as object B. As the ball hits the wall, the ball exerts a force on the wall (toward the direction of motion of the ball), so the wall exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (in the opposite direction). This force is the normal force of the wall, and it is responsible for pushing the ball back towards Erica.

Ymorist [56]

This question is incomplete the complete question is

A diver bounces straight up from a diving board, avoiding the diving board on the way down, and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.00 m/s and her takeoff point is 1.80 m above the pool. (a) What is her highest point above the board? (b) How long a time are her feet in the air? (c) What is her velocity when her feet hit the water?

Answer:

(a) Xs=0.459m

(b) t=0.984 s

(c) Vc=6.65 m/s

Explanation:

(a) To reach maximum distance

g=-9.8m/s^{2}\\ Vf=0\\v_{b}^{2}=v_{a}^{2}+2gx_{s} \\  x_{s}=\frac{0-(3^{2} )}{-2*9.8}\\ x_{s}=0.459m

(b) For Time

To find t we must find t1 and t2

as

t=t1+t2

For T1

t_{1}=(Vb-Va)/g \\t_{1}=(0-3)/9.8\\t_{1}=0.306s

For T2

x_{l}=Vbt+(1/2)gt_{2}^{2}\\   as\\x_{l}=x_{1}+x_{s}\\x_{l}=1.8+0.459\\x_{l}=2.259\\so\\t_{2}=\frac{2.259*2}{9.8} \\t_{2}=0.6789s

For Total Time

t=t1+t2

t=0.306+0.6789

t=0.984s

(c) To find Vc

Vc=Vb+gt2

Vc=(0)+(9.8)(0.6789)

Vc=6.65 m/s

What problems do pathogens cause in our society?
kotegsom [21]

Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease. 

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host.  A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

Due to diseases, affected people can not work  which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.
