Erica throws a tennis ball against a wall, and it bounces back. Which force is responsible for sending the ball back to Erica?

Physics

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.

Goryan [66]
In evolution, there are different types of evolution. There is micro evolution and macro evolution. Macro-evolution results in a brand new species. Sometimes, species get separated and evolve in different ways. Sometimes, through macro-evolution 1 of those groups of the same species, become a completely different species. I think that is what is happening here.

A paper clip is made of wire 0.5 mm in diameter. If the original material from which the wire is made is a rod 25 mm in diameter
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

longitudinal engineering strain = 624.16

true strain is 6.44

Explanation:

given data

diameter d1 = 0.5 mm

diameter d2 = 25 mm

to find out

longitudinal engineering and true strains

solution

we know both the volume is same

so

volume 1 = volume 2

A×L(1) = A×L(2)

( π/4 × d1² )×L(1) = ( π/4 × d2² )×L(2)

( π/4 × 0.5² )×L(1) = ( π/4 × 25² )×L(2)

0.1963 ×L(1) = 122.71 ×L(2)

L(1) / L(2) = 122.71 / 0.1963 = 625.16

and we know longitudinal engineering strain is

longitudinal engineering strain = L(1) / L(2)  - 1

longitudinal engineering strain = 625.16  - 1

longitudinal engineering strain = 624.16

and

true strain is

true strain = ln ( L(1) / L(2))

true strain = ln ( 625.16)

true strain is 6.44
