Get started for freeA basketball has a mass of 570g. Heading straight downward, in the y-direction, it hits the floor with the speed of 5 m/s and rebounds straight up with nearly the same speed. What was the momentum change ?
Question: you throw a ball. assume that the origin is on the ground, with the axis pointing upward. Just after the ball leaves your hand its position is . The average velocity of the ball over the next is . As time after the ball leaves your hand, what is the height of the ball above the ground?
Here are the positions at three different times for a bee in flight (a bee’s top speed is about 7 m/s ). (a)Between 6.3 s and 6.8 s , what was the bee’s average velocity? Be careful with signs.
(b)Between6.3 s and 7.3 s, what was the bee’s average velocity? Be careful with signs.
(c)Of the two average velocities you calculated, which is the best estimate of the bee’s instantaneous velocity at time 6.3 s ?
(d)Using the best information available, what was the displacement of the bee during the time interval from 6.3 s to 6.33 s ?
A proton travelling with a velocity of passes the origin at a time 9.0 s after a proton detector is turned on. Assuming that the velocity of the proton does not change, what will be its position at time 9.7 s?
A proton travelling with a velocity of m/spasses the origin at a time 9.0 s after a proton detector is turned on. Assuming that the velocity of the proton does not change, what will be its position at time 9.7 s?
