0.03kg A boy plays with a paddle ball toy, connected to each other by a rubber band. You may assume the rubber band acts like an ideal spring with a spring constant of k= 12N/m, and a natural length that is negligible (i.e., 0m) compared with the typical lengths it is stretched to during normal operation. a wooden paddle and a bouncy rubber ball of mass MB a) The boy smacks the ball horizontally with the paddle, and it travels D= 1m away from the paddle before it turns around and returns to the paddle. How long does it take for the ball to reach its furthest point 1m away? You may assume that the boy holds the paddle close to its original position after hitting the ball, and as always you may use the approximation t × 3. b) How fast was the ball moving immediately after being hit by the paddle?
