A person catches a ball with a mass of 145 g dropped from a height of 60.0 m above his glove. His hand stops the ball in 0.0100 s. What is the force exerted by his glove on the ball? Assume the ball slows down with constant acceleration.
Two blocks of masses M and 3M are on a horizontal and frictionless surface. A massless spring with a spring constant of 96 N / m is attached to one of the blocks. The spring is compressed between the blocks and the blocks are tied with a massless rope as shown in the figure. After the rope holding the masses is cut, the 3M block moves to the right at 2 m / s. In this case, after the rope is cut a) What is the velocity of the block of mass M. b) If M = 0.5 kg, how much was the spring compressed before the rope was cut

Lions can run at speeds up to approximately 80.0 km/h. A hungry 109 kg lion running northward at top speed attacks and holds onto a 39.0 kg Thomson's gazelle running eastward at 75.0 km/h. Find the final speed ?fvf of the lion‑gazelle system just after the lion attacks. vf=? in m/s
Question 2: (For this problem simply interpret the situation by drawing a motion diagram showing the object's position and its velocity vectors. Do not solve this problem using any mathematics.) 49. | A motorist is traveling at 20 m/s. He is 60 m from a stop light when he sees it turn yellow. His reaction time, before stepping on the brake, is 0.50 s. What steady deceleration while braking will bring him to a stop right at the light?
Most of us know intuitively that in a head-on collision between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Why is this? Many people imagine that the collision force exerted on the car is much greater than that exerted on the truck. To substantiate this view, they point out that the car is crushed, whereas the truck is only dented. This idea of unequal forces, of course, is false; Newton's third law tells us that both objects are acted upon by forces of the same magnitude. The truck suffers less damage because it is made of stronger metal. But what about the two drivers? Do they experience the same forces? To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is initially moving at 7.70 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on collision. Each driver has mass 72.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4,000 kg for the truck. If the collision time is 0.110 s,…

A stationary 2.17-kg object is struck by a stick. The object experiences a horizontal force given by F = at - bt 2, where t is the time in seconds from the instant the stick first contacts the object. If a = 1,500,000 N/s and b = 20,000,000 N/s?, what is the speed of the object just after it comes away from the stick at t = 2.55 x 103 s? %3D
