A tennis ball bounces on the floor three times. If each time it loses 11% of its energy due to heating, how high does it rise af
aalyn [17]

Answer:

h = 3.10 m

Explanation:

As we know that after each bounce it will lose its 11% of energy

So remaining energy after each bounce is 89%

so let say its initial energy is E

so after first bounce the energy is

E_1 = 0.89 E

after 2nd bounce the energy is

E_2 = 0.89(0.89 E)

After third bounce the energy is

E_3 = (0.89)(0.89)(0.89)E

here initial energy is given as

E = mgH_o

now let say final height is "h" so after third bounce the energy is given as

E_3 = mgh

now from above equation we have

mgh = (0.89)(0.89)(0.89)(mgH)

h = 0.705H

h = 0.705(4.4 m)

h = 3.10 m

A 0.080-kg egg test dummy is fitted with a helmet and attached to a swing. This egg test dummy is pulled back and released, allo
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

7.8 N

Explanation:

Applying,

I = Ft................. Eqaution 1

Where I = Impulse on the egg test dummy, F = Force on the egg test dummy during the time interval, t = time interval

make F the subject of the equation

F = I/t.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: T = -0.39 N.s, t = 0.050 s

Substitute these vales into equation 2

F = -0.39/0.050

F = -7.8 N

Hence the force that act on the egg test dummy is 7.8 N
