Answer:
v = 0.059 m/s
Explanation:
To find the final speed of Olaf and the ball you use the conservation momentum law. The momentum of Olaf and the ball before catches the ball is the same of the momentum of Olaf and the ball after. Then, you have:
(1)
m: mass of the ball = 0.400kg
M: mass of Olaf = 75.0 kg
v1i: initial velocity of the ball = 11.3m/s
v2i: initial velocity of Olaf = 0m/s
v: final velocity of Olaf and the ball
You solve the equation (1) for v and replace the values of all variables:

Hence, after Olaf catches the ball, the velocity of Olaf and the ball is 0.059m/s
Answer:
1. increases
2. increases
3. increases
Explanation:
Part 1:
First of all, since the box remains at rest, the horizontal net force acting on the box must equal zero:
F1 - fs = 0.
And this friction force fs is:
fs = Nμs,
where μs is the static coefficient of friction, and N is the normal force.
Originally, the normal force N is equal to mg, where m is the mass of the box, and g is the constant of gravity. Now, there is an additional force F2 acting downward on the box, which means it increases the normal force, since the normal force by Newton's third law, is the force due to the surface acting on the box upward:
N = mg + F2.
So, F2 is increasing, that means fs is increasing too.
Part 2:
As explained in the part 1, N = mg + F2. F2 is increasing, so the normal force is thus increasing.
Part 3:
In part 1 and part 2, we know that fs = Nμs, and since the normal force N is increasing, the maximum possible static friction force fs, max is also increasing.

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. They are just transferred from one system to another. To obey this law, the energy of the substances inside the container must be equal to the substance added to it. The energy is in the form of heat. There can be two types of heat energy: latent heat and sensible heat. Sensible heat is energy added or removed when a substance changes in temperature. Latent heat is the energy added or removed at a constant temperature during a phase change. Since there is no mention of phase change, we assume the heat involved here is sensible heat. The equation for sensible heat is:
H = mCpΔT
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cp is the specific heat of a certain type of material or substance
ΔT is the change in temperature.
So the law of conservation of heat tells that:
Sensible heat of Z + Sensible heat of container = Sensible heat of X
Since we have no idea what these substances are, there is no way of knowing the Cp. We can't proceed with the calculations. So, we can only assume that in the duration of 15 minutes, the whole system achieves equilibrium. Therefore, the equilibrium temperature of the system is equal to 32°C. The answer is C.
