A tennis ball (m=0.060 kg) is moving horizontally at 20 m/s toward a tennis player who hits it straight back at 26 m/s. What is
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0.36 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ball, m = 0.06 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 20 m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v = 26 m/s

We need to find the change in momentum of the tennis ball. It is equal to the final momentum minus initial momentum

\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\=0.06\times (26-20)\\\\=0.36\ kg-m/s

So, the change in momentum of the ball is 0.36 kg-m/s.

How does increased pressure result in the formation of a mineral?
drek231 [11]
The best answer is 
A) <span>The atoms in the mineral get rearranged

Over time, and under great pressure, the atoms of a substance can become rearranged, forming a new substance. For example, the intense pressure that carbon underground experiences, perhaps in the form of coal, can rearrange the atoms of the substance to create a diamond. </span>

What does an unconformity in a sequence of rock layers reveal about geologic history?
andreev551 [17]
An unconformity, or abnormality in the layers of rocks, signifies that the process of layering was somehow interrupted. The only feasible choice for this would be (B), where erosion would have interrupted the layering process.

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.95 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d=0.0865 m from
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

kinetic energy = 0.1168 J

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, we know that ;

F = kx

k = F/x

We are given ;

Mass; m = 1.95 kg

Spring stretch; d = x = 0.0865

So, Force = mg = 1.95 × 9.81

k = 1.95 × 9.81/0.0865 = 221.15 N/m

Now, initial energy is;

E1 = mgL + ½k(x - L)²

Also, final energy; E2 = ½kx² + ½mv²

From conservation of energy, E1 = E2

Thus;

mgL + ½k(x - L)² = ½kx² + ½mv²

Making the kinetic energy ½mv² the subject, we have;

½mv² = mgL + ½k(x - L)² - ½kx²

We are given L=0.0325 m

Plugging other relevant values, we have ;

½mv² = (1.95 × 9.81 × 0.0325) + (½ × 221.15(0.0865 - 0.0325)² - ½(221.15 × 0.0865²)

½mv² = 0.62170875 + 0.3224367 - 0.82734979375

½mv² = 0.1168 J
