Answer:
50m/s2^
Explanation:
We know , by newton's law of motion .
F=ma
a=f/m
a=25/0.5
a=50m/s2^
Therefore , the acceleration of a softball is .
Answer:
F = - 3.56*10⁵ N
Explanation:
To attempt this question, we use the formula for the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.
I = F t = Δp
Next, we try to find the time that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), so we say
v = d / t
t = d / v
Given that
m = 26 g = 26 10⁻³ kg
d = 50 mm = 50 10⁻³ m
t = d/v
t = 50 10⁻³ / 600
t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s
F t = m v - m v₀
This is so, because the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative
F = m (v-vo) / t
F = 26*10⁻³ (-500 - 640) / 8.33*10⁻⁵
F = - 3.56*10⁵ N
The negative sign is as a result of the force exerted against the bullet
