The average force applied by T on the ball if the interaction time between her hands and the ball was
Answer to Problem 48A
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The mass of the volleyball,
Initial velocity of the ball with which it approaches T,
Final velocity of the ball after T bumps it,
The interaction time between her hands and the ball,
Formula used:
Momentum of an object of mass m and moving with velocity v is given by,
Impulse on an object is equal to the change in momentum of an object,
Where
Calculation:
Consider the direction of initial motion of the ball as negative then the opposite direction will be positive. Thus, the velocities can be written as,
Then, using all the given values in the formula mentioned, the average force applied by T on the ball will be,
Conclusion:
Thus, the average force applied by T on the ball is
