A) A top-class tennis player can serve the ball, of mass 57 g, at an initial horizontal speed of 50 m/s. The ball remains in contact with the racket for 0.05 s. Calculate the average force exerted on the ball during the serve.

B) A motor car of mass 3000 kg moving with 72 km h-1 made to reduce its speed to 18 km h^-1, in 40 s, by applying brakes. Find the resistive force.

Respuesta :

The average force exerted on the ball during the serve is 57 N the resistive force is -1125 N.

Force

a. Average force

Using  this formula

Force (F) = Mass ×Acceleration

Where:

Mass (m) = 57 g = 57 / 1000= 0.057 Kg

Acceleration (a) = u / t = 50 / 0.05 = 1000 m/s²

Let plug in the formula

Force (F) = 0.057 × 1000

Force (F) = 57 N

b. Resistive force

F = m(v – u) / t

Where:

Force (F) = ?

Mass (m) = 3000 Kg

Initial velocity (u) = 72 Km/h = 72 / 3.6 = 20 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 18 Km/h = 18 / 3.6 = 5 m/s

Time (t) = 40s

Let plug in the formula

Force = 3000(5 – 20) / 40

Force = 3000(-15) / 40

Force=-45,000/40

Force = -1125 N

Therefore the average force exerted on the ball during the serve is 57 N the resistive force is -1125 N.
