A 3.30-kg steel ball strikes a wall with a speed of 11.0 m/s at an angle of 0 = 60.0° with the surface. It bounces off with the same speed and angle (see figure below). If the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.200 s, what is the average force exerted by the wall on the ball? (Assume right and up are the positive directions.) Fx N Fy y
In a circus act, a 55.5 kg clown with 2.5 m/s horizontal velocity jumps into the air and is caught by a 72.5 kg clown who was initially at rest. The clown is sitting on a sheet of ice, and moves off at some new velocity, after the two clowns are stuck together. How much kinetic energy is lost during this process?

Tarzan swings on a vine to rescue a helpless explorer (as usual) from some wild animal.He starts his movement from a branch 50 feet above the ground, grabs the explorer at the bottom ofits swing, and continues the movement, upward this time, until both land safely on another branch.Suppose that Tarzan's mass is 90 kg and the explorer's is 70 kg, and that Tarzan not only lets go of the branch, butjumps up to start swinging with a speed of 5.0 m/s. How high of a branch can he and the explorerreach?

The coefficient of restitution between a 294.317g ball and the floor is 0.133. How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision of the ball with the floor if the ball is dropped from 3.649 meters high?
Some jellyfish use jet propulsion to get around; the efficiency of this process can be quite low, as a calculation will show. A 1.9 g jellyfish is at rest. It takes water into its bell, then rapidly ejects 1.3 g of water, achieving a speed of 0.070 m/s. If we define “what you get” as the kinetic energy of the jellyfish,and “what you had to pay” as the total kinetic energy of the jellyfish and the water, what is the efficiency? If we then add in a 25% metabolic efficiency, what’s the overall efficiency of this form of locomotion?
The superheroine Xanaxa, with a mass of 69.9 kg, is in a hair-raising chase after the 72.7-kg arch-villain Lexlax. She leaps from the ground to the top of a 195-m-high building, then dives off and comes to rest at the bottom of a 15.7-m-deep excavation, where she finds Lexlax and neutralizes him. Does all this bring about a net gain or a net loss of gravitational potential energy? Gain Loss By how much? Answer with a positive number. Take g = 9.81 m/s?. Number J
