Chapter 31, Problem 31.23P
A truck is carrying a steel beam of length 15.0 in on a freeway. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide horizontally along the ground at a speed of 25.0 m/s. The velocity of the center of mass of the beam is northward while the length of the beam maintains an east-west orientation. The vertical component of the Earth’s magnetic field at this location has a magnitude of 35.0 μT. What is the magnitude of the induced emf between the ends of the beam?

A ping pong ball and a tennis ball are dropped and there is a very small gap between them when the tennis ball hits the floor. Indicate the directions of the momentums of the ping pong ball and the tennis ball after the tennis ball collides with the floor, but before the balls collide with each other. (Drawing a diagram may be helpful.)
Describe how the momentum of a single ball changes as it free falls from a height of approximately 1 m, collides with a hard floor, and rebounds.
If the answer is 2.8, -2.8 or -8.4, it is not CORRECT
