A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P6.45
A cannon is mounted on a railway flatcar, the muzzle elevated to 33.2° and pointed in the direction of the track. The cannon fires a 0.80-metric-ton projectile at 0.90 km/s. (a) If the flatcar and cannon together have a mass of 36.0 metric tons (not including the projectile), what is the initial recoil speed of the flatcar? m/s (b) In this problem, it appears that momentum in the y-direction is not conserved. Explain what happens to it.

He swings his bat. contacts the 0.144 - kg bascball for 0.088 scconds. and scods the ball hying towards deep center field at 38.02. What is the average force with which he hit the ball?
Jenna was serving a 0.285 kg volleyball to win the set against UNB. Scott was geeking it up and brought a high-speed camera into the gym and used it to determine that Jenna’s hand was in contact with the ball for 0.033 seconds during the serve. Scott also borrowed a radar gun from a local RCMP and using this gun, he was able to determine that the velocity of the volleyball when it left her hand was 24.4 m/s. What force in Newtons did Jenna’s hand exert on the volleyball during the serve (assume the ball’s speed was zero when her hand first struck the ball)?
