- Physics A catcher in a baseball game stops a pitched ball originally moving at 49.0 m/s49.0 m/s in the positive direction at the moment it first comes in contact with the catcher’s glove. After contacting the glove, the ball travels an additional 10.5 cm10.5 cm before coming to a complete stop. The mass of the ball is 0.145 kg.0.145 kg. What is the average force ?F that the glove imparts to the ball during the catch?A 33.7-g rifle bullet traveling 205. m/s buries itself in a 2.97-kg pendulum hanging on a 2.67-m-long string, which makes the pendulum swing upward in an arc.

- Sammy with a mass of 20 kg and his mother the mass of 40 kg are at rest 10 m apart. The father of mass 80 kg slides along the path at 15 m/s. He collides with the mother and she bounces ahead to collide with Sammy. If all collisions are perfectly elastic and one dimensional and there is no friction on the straight and level path, calculate the speed of Sammyspace a kg, including suit and oxygen tank. The tether line securing the astronaut to their spacecraft loses its attachment from the spacecraft while they are on a spacewalk. The astronaut is initially at rest with respect to the spacecraft, they then throw their 12.0 kg oxygen tank away from their spacecraft with a speed of 8.00 m/s in order to propel themselves back towards it. I) Calculate the maximum distance they can possibly be from the spacecraft and still return within 2.00 min (the amount of time the air in their helmet remains breathable). II) Which of Newton's law of motion explain best why this strategy works? (a) First (b) Second (c) ThirdQUESTION 8 Your mass is 94.1 kg, and the sled s mass is 20.1 kg.
