When a 54.9-g tennis ball is served, it accelerates from rest to a speed of 45.1 m/s. The impact with the racket gives the ball a constant acceleration over a distance of 35.1 cm. What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the ball

F = 159.07 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a tennis ball, m = 54.9 g = 0.0549 kg

It accelerates from rest to a speed of 45.1 m/s.

The impact with the racket gives the ball a constant acceleration over a distance of 35.1 cm = 0.351 m

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the ball.

Let a be the acceleration of the ball. Using third equation of motion to find it.

Net force,

F = ma

F = 0.0549 kg × 2897.45 m/s²

= 159.07 N

Hence, the net force acting on the ball is 159.07 N.

answer: the rock sample is a sedimentary rock.

explanation:

it is given that:

mass of rock sample, m = 2.7 g

volume of rock sample,

so, density of rock sample will be

since, the density of rock sample is . hence, the rock sample is a sedimentary rock, whose densities varies between .
