Neither; both experienced the same magnitude impulse. M. S.Kariapper B. the bowling ball C. the Ping-Pong ball

In a slow-pitch softball game, a 0.200-kg softball crosses the plate at 15.0 m/s at an angle of 45.0 below the horizontal. The batter hits the ball toward center field, giving it a velocity of 40.0 m/s at 30.0 above the horizontal. (a) Determine the impulse delivered to the ball. (b) If the force on the ball increases linearly for 4.00 ms, holds constant for 20.0 ms, and then decreases linearly to zero in another 4.00 ms, what is the maximum force on the ball?
A cruise ship with a mass of 1.00107kg strikes a pier at a speed of 0.750 m/s. It comes to rest after traveling 6.00 m, damaging the ship, the pier, and the tugboat captain’s finances. Calculate the average force exerted on the pier using the concept of impulse. (Hint: First calculate the time it took to bring the ship to rest, assuming a constant force.)
Two blocks of masses m1 and m2 approach each other on a horizontal table with the same constant speed, v0, as measured by a laboratory observer. The blocks undergo a perfectly elastic collision, and it is observed that m1 stops but m2 moves opposite its original motion with some constant speed, v. (a) Determine the ratio of the two masses, m1/m2. (b) What is the ratio of their speeds, v/v0?

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 500 g as shown in Figure P9.17. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, to fall through a distance of 1.20 m. (a) Find the magnitude of the downward velocity with which the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball while the tennis ball is still moving down. Next, the two balls meet in an elastic collision. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P9.17
