A 1.2 kgball drops vertically onto a floor, hitting with a speed of 25 m/sIt rebounds with an initial speed of10m/s. (a) What impulse acts on the ball during the contact? (b) If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.020s, what is the magnitude of the average force on the floor from the ball?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The impulse acting on the ball during contact, J=42 kg⋅ms.

b) The magnitude of the average force on the floor from the ball, Favg=2.1×103 N.

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the given information

The mass of the ball, m=1.2 kg .

The velocity of the ball before impact,v1=-25m/s.

The velocity of the ball after impact,v2=10m/s .

The time of contact, t=0.020 s.

02

Concept and formula used in the given question

We can use the equation of impulse related to the change in momentum to calculate the impulse on the ball. The magnitude of the average force can be calculated using the equation relating impulse, force, and time and they are given as follows.

J=∆P∆P=m×vv2-v1J=Favg×1

03

(a) Calculation for the impulse which acts on the ball during the contact

The equation of the impulse-momentum theorem is

J=∆P=m×v2-v1=1.2kg×10m/s--25m/s=42kg./s
04

(b) Calculation for the magnitude of the average force on the floor from the ball when the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.020 s ,  

We have,

J=Favg×t

So,

Favg=Jt=42kg.m/s0.020s=2.1×103N

Figure 9-32: A block on a horizontal floor is initially either stationary, sliding in the positive direction of an x-axis, or sliding in the negative direction of that axis. Then the block explodes into two pieces that slide along the x-axis. Assume the block and the two pieces form a closed, isolated system. Six choices for a graph of the momenta of the block and the pieces are given, all versus time t. Determine which choices represent physically impossible situations and explain why.

Figure 9-73 shows an overhead view of two particles sliding at constant velocity over a frictionless surface. The particles have the same mass and the same initial speed V = 4.00 m/s, and they collide where their paths intersect. An xaxis is arranged to bisect the angle between their incoming paths, such thatθ=40.0°. The region to the right of the collision is divided into four lettered sections by the xaxis and four numbered dashed lines. In what region or along what line do the particles travel if the collision is (a) completely inelastic, (b) elastic, and (c) inelastic? What are their final speeds if the collision is (d) completely inelastic and (e) elastic?

A force in the negative direction of an x-axis is applied for 27 msto a 0.40 kgball initially moving at14 m/sin the positive direction of the axis. The force varies in magnitude, and the impulse has magnitude32.4 N.s. What are the balls (a) Speed and (b) Direction of travel just after the force is applied? What are (c) The average magnitude of the force and (d) The direction of the impulse on the ball?

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 stone is dropped att=0. A second stone, with twice the mass of the first, is dropped from the same point atrole="math" localid="1654342252844" t=100ms. (a) How far below the release point is the centre of mass of the two stones att=300ms? (Neither stone has yet reached the ground.) (b) How fast is the centre of mass of the two stone systems moving at that time?
