Two figure skaters are coasting in the same direction, with the leading skater moving at 5.5 m/s and the trailing skating moving at 6.2 m/s. When the trailing skater catches up with the leading skater, he picks her up without applying any horizontal forces on his skates. If the trailing skater is 50 heavier than the 50-kg leading skater, what is their speed after he picks her up?
A 57.0-g tennis ball is traveling straight at a player at 21.0 m/s. The player volleys the ball straight back at 25.0 m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the racket for 0.060 s, what average force acts on the ball? (a) 22.6 N (b) 32.5 N (c) 43.7 N (d) 72.1 N (e) 102 N
A block with mass m1 hangs from a rope that is extended over an ideal pulley and attached to a second block with mass m2 that sits on a ledge slanted at an angle of 20 (Fig. P5.49). Suppose the system of blocks is initially motionless and held still, and then it is released. If m1 = 7.00 kg and m2 = 2.00 kg, find the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks, assuming there is no friction between the second block and the ledge. FIGURE P5.49 Problems 49 and 50.
A tall man walking at 1.10 m/s accidentally bumps his head of mass 3.07 kg on a steel doorjamb. His head stops in 0.019 s. What is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the doorjamb on the man's head?
a pebble of mass 1g exerts a force with magnitude F=1N on Godzilla, whose mass is 10000 kg. the force that Godzilla exerts on the pebble, therefore, has a magnitude of?
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 41.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 26.3 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.099 seconds, what is the magnitude of the force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
