Answer:

0.014s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

mass of golf ball = 0.059kg

force applied = 290N

velocity = 69m/s

initial velocity = 0m/s

Unknown:

Time of contact = ?

Solution;

We know that momentum is the quantity of motion of body possess;

Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = 0.059 x 69 = 4.1kgm/s

Also; impulse is the effect of the force acting on a body;

impulse = force x time = momentum

So;

Force x time = momentum

Time = $\frac{momentum}{force }$ = $\frac{4.1}{290}$ = 0.014s

Maggie walks to a friends house which is exactly 1500 meters due South. It takes Maggie 45 minutes for the walk and Maggie has t

Answer:

<em>Explanation below</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed vs Velocity </u>

These are two similar physical concepts. They only differ in the fact that the velocity is vectorial, i.e. having magnitude and direction, and the speed is scalar, just the magnitude regardless of the direction. They are strongly related to the concepts of displacement and distance, which are the vectorial and scalar versions of the space traveled by a moving object. The velocity can be computed as

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{\vec r}{t}$

Where $\vec r$ is the position vector and t is the time. The speed is

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

To compute $\vec r$ , we only need to know the initial and final positions and subtract them. To compute d, we need to add all the distances traveled by the object, regardless of their directions.

Maggie walks to a friend's house, located 1500 meters from her place. The initial position is 0 and the final position is 1500 m. The displacement is

$\vec r=1500\ m \text{ to the south}$

and the velocity is

$\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{1500}{45}=33.33\ m/s\text{ to the south}$

Now, we know Maggie had to make three different turns of direction to finally get there. This means her distance is more than 1500 m. Let's say she walked 500 m in all the turns, then the distance is

$d=1500+500=2000\ m$
