If energy input remains constant and voltage remains the same in a circuit, but the current decreases, the power has increased. It is presented in the equation P = VI where P is power, V is voltage and I is current.
3. A big league hitter attacks a fastball. The ball has a mass of 0.16 kg. It is pitched at 38 m/s. After the player hits the ball, it is now traveling 44 m/s in the opposite direction. The impact lasted 0.002 seconds. How big of a force did the ballplayer put on that ball?
1. 5.5 m/s
We can solve the problem by applying the law of conservation of momentum. The total momentum before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision, so we have:
where
m1 = 0.4 kg is the mass of the ball
u1 = 18 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball
m2 = 0.2 kg is the mass of the bottle
u2 = 0 is the initial velocity of the bottle (which is initially at rest)
v1 = ? is the final velocity of the ball
v2 = 25 m/s is the final velocity of the bottle
Substituting and re-arranging the equation, we can find the final velocity of the ball:
2. 22.2 m/s
We can solve the problem again by using the law of conservation of momentum; the only difference in this case is that the bullet and the block, after the collision, travel together at the same speed v. So we can write:
where
m1 = 0.04 kg is the mass of the bullet
u1 = 300 m/s is the initial velocity of the bullet
m2 = 0.5 kg is the mass of the block
u2 = 0 is the initial velocity of the block (which is initially at rest)
v = ? is the final velocity of the bullet+block, which stick and travel together
Substituting and re-arranging the equation, we can find the final velocity of bullet+block:
3. 6560 N
The impulse exerted on the ball is equal to its change in momentum:
(1)
The impulse can be rewritten as product between force and time of collision:
while the change in momentum of the ball is equal to the product between its mass and the change in velocity:
So, eq.(1) becomes
where:
F = ? is the unknown force
is the duration of the impact
m = 0.16 kg is the mass of the ball
is the final velocity of the ball
is its initial velocity (we must add a negative sign, since it is in opposite direction to the final velocity)
So, by using the equation, we can find the force:
