A 0.454-kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 21.0 N/m. The

block rests on a frictionless surface. A 5.90×10−2-kg wad of putty is thrown horizontally at the block, hitting it with a speed of 8.97 m/s and sticking.

Answer:

a. Δx = 2.59 cm

Explanation:

mb = 0.454 kg , mp = 5.9 x 10 ⁻² kg , vp = 8.97 m / s , k = 21.0 N / m

Using momentum conserved

mb * (0) + mp * vp = ( mb + mp ) * vf

vf = ( mp / mp + mb) * vp

¹/₂ * ( mp + mb) * (mp / mp +mb) ² * vp ² = ¹/₂ * k * Δx²

Solve to Δx '

Δx = √ ( mp² * vp² ) / ( k * ( mp + mb )

Δx = √ ( ( 5.9 x 10⁻² kg ) ² * (8.97 m /s) ² / [ 21.0 N / m * ( 5.9 x10 ⁻² kg + 0.454 kg ) ]

Δx = 0.02599 m ⇒ 2.59 cm

A baseball, which has a mass of 0.685 kg., is moving with a velocity of 38.0 m/s when it contacts the baseball bat duringwhich t

Evgen [1.6K]

Answers:

a) $65.075 kgm/s$

b) $10.526 s$

c) $61.82 N$

Explanation:

<h3>a) Impulse delivered to the ball</h3>

According to the Impulse-Momentum theorem we have the following:

$I=\Delta p=p_{2}-p_{1}$ (1)

Where:

$I$ is the impulse

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum

$p_{2}=mV_{2}$ is the final momentum of the ball with mass $m=0.685 kg$ and final velocity (to the right) $V_{2}=57 m/s$

$p_{1}=mV_{1}$ is the initial momentum of the ball with initial velocity (to the left) $V_{1}=-38 m/s$

So:

$I=\Delta p=mV_{2}-mV_{1}$ (2)

$I=\Delta p=m(V_{2}-V_{1})$ (3)

$I=\Delta p=0.685 kg (57 m/s-(-38 m/s))$ (4)

$I=\Delta p=65.075 kg m/s$ (5)

<h3>b) Time </h3>

This time can be calculated by the following equations, taking into account the ball undergoes a maximum compression of approximately $1.0 cm=0.01 m$ :

$V_{2}=V_{1}+at$ (6)

$V_{2}^{2}=V_{1}^{2}+2ad$ (7)

Where:

$a$ is the acceleration

$d=0.01 m$ is the length the ball was compressed

$t$ is the time

Finding $a$ from (7):

$a=\frac{V_{2}^{2}-V_{1}^{2}}{2d}$ (8)

$a=\frac{(57 m/s)^{2}-(-38 m/s)^{2}}{2(0.01 m)}$ (9)

$a=90.25 m/s^{2}$ (10)

Substituting (10) in (6):

$57 m/s=-38 m/s+(90.25 m/s^{2})t$ (11)

Finding $t$ :

$t=1.052 s$ (12)

<h3>c) Force applied to the ball by the bat </h3>

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force $F$ is proportional to the variation of momentum $\Delta p$ in time $\Delta t$ :

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$ (13)

$F=\frac{65.075 kgm/s}{1.052 s}$ (14)

Finally:

$F=61.82 N$
