Answer:
280 N
Explanation:
Applying Newton's third second law of motion,
F = m(v-u)/t................... Equation 1
Where F = Magnitude of the average force on the ball during contact, v = final velocity of the ball, u = initial velocity of the ball, t = time of contact of the ball and the wall.
Note: Let the direction of the initial velocity of the ball be positive
Given: m = 4 kg, u = 3.0 m/s, v = -4.0 m/s (bounce off), t = 0.1 s
Substitute into equation 1
F = 4(-4-3)/0.1
F = 4(-7)/0.1
F = -28/0.1
F = -280 N.
Note: The negative sign tells that the force on the ball act in opposite direction to the initial motion of the ball
The cooling on earth's surface (extrusive) makes a molten rock to become glassy. The lava cools so fast that crystals don't have time to form, which makes it glassy. Hope this helps!
