A machine gun, of mass 35.0 kg, fires 50.0-gram bullets, with a muzzle velocity of 750 m/s, at the rate of 300 rounds per minute. What is the average force exerted on the machine gun mount? Group of answer choices: 94.0 N 438 N 219 N 188 N
A baseball (m = 152 g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 43.6 m/s (97.6 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 53.8 m/s (120 mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.03 ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat? Neglect the weight of the bat, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.

A baseball (m = 148 g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 40.7 m/s (91.1 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 51.6 m/s (115 mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.45 ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat? Neglect the weight of the bat, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.
A vehicle with a mass of (3482.44)kg is being tested for its engine consumption by measuring the force it needs to move the vehicle upon covering a certain distance. If the coefficient of kinetic friction of the wheels is (0.83), the initial velocity upon the start of the measurement is (96.46m/s) and the distance set to measure the net force is (89.22)m, what is the final velocity of the vehicle? The net force is 5975 N.
A rubber ball is dropped and bounces vertically from a horizontal concrete floor. If the ball has a speed of 8.3 m/s just before striking the floor, and a speed of 2.8 m/s just after bouncing, find the average force of the floor on the ball. Assume that the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.18 s, and that the mass of the ball is 0.21 kg.
