OPTIONS :

A.) the force that the ball exerts on the wall

B.) the frictional force between the wall and the ball

C.) the acceleration of the ball as it approaches the wall

D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball

Answer: D.) the normal force that the wall exerts on the ball

Explanation: The normal force acting on an object can be explained as a force experienced by an object when it comes in contact with a flat surface. The normal force acts perpendicular to the surface of contact.

In the scenario described above, Erica's tennis ball experiences an opposite reaction after hitting the wall.This is in relation to Newton's 3rd law of motion, which states that, For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The reaction force in this case is the normal force exerted on the ball by the wall perpendicular to the surface of contact.

on the surface of jupiter the acceleration due to gravity is about 3 times that on earth. how much would a 100kg rock weigh on j
madam [21]

Answer:

Weight on Jupiter will be equal to 2940 N

Explanation:

We have given given acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 3 times of acceleration due to gravity on earth

Acceleration due to gravity on earth g=9.8m/sec^2

So acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter = g'=3\times 9.8=29.4m/sec^2

Mass is given m = 100 kg

We have to find the weight

Weight is equal to W = mg, here m is mass and a is acceleration

So weight W=100\times 29.4=2940N
