Answer:

0.228 kgm/s

Explanation:

57 g = 0.057 kg

The momentum of the tennis ball before hitting the wall is the product of its velocity and mass

p_1 = mv_1 = 0.057 * 74 = 4.218 kgm/s

The momentum of the tennis ball after hitting the wall is

p_2 = mv_2 = 0.057 * (-70) = -3.99 kgm/s

We we want to calculate the change in magnitude of the momentum, we take the difference between their absolute values:

\Delta p = |p_1| - |p_2| = 4.218 - 3.99 =0.228 kgm/s

A uniform solid disk with a mass of 24.3 kg and a radius of 0.364 m is free to rotate about a frictionless axle. Forces of 90.0
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

a. -12.7 Nm

b. -7.9 rad/s^2

Explanation:

I have attached an illustration of a solid disk with the respective forces applied, as stated in this question.

Forces applied to the solid disk include:

F_1 = 90.0N\\F_2 = 125N

Other parameters given include:

Mass of solid disk, M = 24.3kg

and radius of solid disk, r = 0.364m

a.) The formula for determining torque (T), is T = r * F

Hence the net torque produced by the two forces is given as a summation of both forces:

T = T_{125} + T_{90}\\= -r(125)sin90 + r(90)sin90\\= 0.364(-125 + 90)\\= -12.7 Nm

b.)  The angular acceleration of the disk can be found thus:

using the formula for the Moment of Inertia of a solid disk;

I_{disk} = {\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2

where M = Mass of solid disk

and r = radius of solid disk

We then relate the torque and angular acceleration (\alpha) with the formula:

T = I\alpha \\-12.7 = ({\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2)\alpha \\\alpha  = -{\frac{12.7}{1.61}} = -7.9 rad/s^2

A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.
alexdok [17]
If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.

What is cartilage?
Sphinxa [80]

"The connective tissue that's found between bones."

An example would be between the vertabrae in the spine.

Like the other (inappropriate) answer said, a ligament is what attches muscles and bones.

Also, the tissue inside of bones is bone marrow.

If you know that, you can take out those two options (Option 1 and 3)
