A 140 g ball with speed 7.8ms strikes a wall perpendicularly and rebounds in the opposite direction with the same speed. The collision lasts 3.80 ms .What are the magnitudes of the (a) impulse and (b) average force on the wall from the ball during the elastic collision?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Magnitude of impulse,Jis2.18kg.ms.
  2. Magnitude of the average force on the wall from the ball, F is 575 N .

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the given information

  1. Mass of the ball, m = 140 g.
  2. Speed of the ball,vi=7.8ms.
  3. Time of collision, t = 3.80 ms .
02

Concept and formula used in the given question

Use the concept of impulse. Using the equation of impulse and find the impulse and then using the same equation of time involved, then find the average force. The equations are given below.

J=m∆VFt=m∆V

03

(a) Calculate the magnitude of impulse

Magnitude of impulse:

Ball rebounds back with same velocity, we can write,

J=0.14(-v-(v)=0.14×2v=0.14×2×7.8=-2.18kg.ms

Magnitude of impulse is J=2.18kg.ms

04

(b) Calculate the magnitude of impulse average force on the wall from the ball during the elastic collision

Magnitude of the average force on the wall from the ball.

Consider the formulas J=m∆VandFt=m∆V.

Use value of J here and solve as:

F(3.80×10-3)=m∆VF=2.183.80×10-3F=574.7NF≈575N

A rocket is moving away from the solar system at a speed of 6.0×103m/s. It fires its engine, which ejects exhaust with a speed of3.0×103m/srelative to the rocket. The mass of the rocket at this time is4.0×104kg , and its acceleration is2.0m/s2. (a) What is the thrust of the engine? (b) At what rate, in kilograms per second, is exhaust ejected during the firing?

A bullet of mass10 gstrikes a ballistic pendulum of mass 2.0 kg. The centre of mass of the pendulum rises a vertical distance of12 cm. Assuming that the bullet remains embedded in the pendulum, calculate the bullet’s initial speed.

In fig. 9-70, two long barges are moving in the same direction in still water, one with a speed of 10 km/hand the other with a speed of 20 km/hWhile they are passing each other, coal is shoveled from the slower to the faster one at a rate of 1000 kg/min. How much additional force must be provided by the driving engines of (a) the faster barge and (b) the slower barge if neither is to change the speed? Assume that the shoveling is always perfectly side-ways and that the frictional forces between the barges and the water do not depend on the mass of the barges.


An old Chrysler with mass 2400 kg is moving along a straight stretch of road at 80 km/h. It is followed by a Ford with mass 1600 kgmoving at 60 km/h. How fast is the center of mass of the two cars moving?

Consider a box that explodes into two pieces while moving with a constant positive velocity along an x-axis. If one piece, with mass , ends up with positive velocity v1,then the second piece, with mass m2, could end up with (a) a positive velocity v2(Fig. 9-25a), (b) a negative velocity v2(Fig. 9-25b), or (c) zero velocity (Fig. 9-25c). Rank those three possible results for the second piece according to the corresponding magnitude of v1, the greatest first.
