1) A baseball with a mass of 137 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.6 m/s (91 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.05 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.4 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. 2)A 4.50 gram bullet is fired from a rifle at a horizontal speed of 210 m/s. If the rifle has a weight of 25.0 N and is initially motionless, determine the recoil speed of the rifle.

10. A snowboarder starts at the top of a 160. m tall hill with a velocity of 3.00 m/s.

A rocket of mass 10^5 kg is launched fromthe surface of the Earth. This is a sketch of the rocket as it’s still in Earth’s atmo-sphere. The rocket is undergoing an accel-eration of 3 m/s^2 upward. There is a forceexerted on the rocket from the thrust of itsengines labeled here as FEngine (you can useFE for short). The rocket is still close to theEarth’s surface, so it is subject to Earth’s gravity, and it is also subject to a substan-tial air resistance force. a. Draw a complete free body diagram of the rocket with all forces acting on it, clearlyindicating which direction each forces act. b. What is the weight of the rocket, and what is the net force on the rocket? c. If the force the engine is exerting is FE = 1.8×10^6 N, what is the magnitude of the forceof air resistance? d. What is the work done by the engine as the rocket rises 150 m?
