To test the quality of a tennis ball, you drop it onto the floor from a height of 4.00 m. It rebounds to a height of 2.00 m. If

the ball is in contact with the floor for I2.0 ms, (a) what is the magnitude of its average acceleration during that contact and (b) is the average acceleration up or down?

Answer:

Part a)

a = 1260.3 m/s^2

Part b)

Direction = upwards

Explanation:

When ball is dropped from height h = 4.0 m

then the speed of the ball just before it will strike the ground is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_1^2 - 0^2 = 2(9.81)(4.0)

v_1 = 8.86 m/s

Now ball will rebound to height h = 2.00 m

so the velocity of ball just after it will rebound is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - v_2^2 = 2(-9.81)(2.00)

v_2 = 6.26 m/s

Part a)

Average acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

a = \frac{6.26 - (-8.86)}{12.0 \times 10^{-3}}

a = 1260.35 m/s^2

Part B)

As we know that ball rebounds upwards after collision while before collision it is moving downwards

So the direction of the acceleration is vertically upwards

A system of pulleys is used to raise a load of bricks that weighs 1,700 newtons. The force applied to the pulley is 340 newtons.
Law Incorporation [45]
By definition, we have that the mechanical advantage is given by the following equation:
 MA =  \frac{W}{T} 

 Where,
 W: is the load
 T: is the tension
 Substituting the values in the given equation we have:
 MA = \frac{1700}{340}
 MA = 5

 Therefore, the mechanical advantage is equal to 5.
 Answer:
 The mechanical advantage of this machine is:
 MA = 5

If a cart goes around a turn at 20 km/h ,what remains constant
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 4.speed

Explanation:

In this case, we know that the cart remains at a constant 20km/h.

Now, one could say that "the velocity remains constant, because it always is 20km/h"

But remember that velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, and if the cart is going around a turn, then the direction of motion is changing, which tell us that there is acceleration.

But the module of the velocity, the speed, remains constant at 20km/h.

Then the correct option is 4, speed.
