A tennis player hits the ball with her racket. Compare the force exerted by the racket on the ball to that exerted by the ball on the racket during the collision between the racket and the ball. Is one force larger than the other or are they equal in magnitude to each other? Does this relationship of the magnitudes of the two forces change at any time during the collision? Explain.

•• al and bert are jogging side-by-side on a trail in the woods at a speed of 0.75 m/s. suddenly al sees the end of the trail 35 m ahead and decides to speed up to reach it. he accelerates at a constant rate of 0.50 m/s2, while bert continues on at a constant speed. (a) how long does it take al to reach the end of the trail? (b) once he reaches the end of the trail, he immediately turns around and heads back along the trail with a constant speed of 0.85 m/s. how long does it take him to meet up with bert? (c) how far are they from the end of the trail when they meet?

Aball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.9 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 51.6 m above the ground. the ball just misses the edge of the roof on its way down, as shown in the figure. (a) determine the time needed for the ball to reach its maximum height. (b) determine the maximum height. (c) determine the time needed for the ball to return to the height from which it was thrown, and the velocity of the ball at that instant. (d) determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground. (e) determine the velocity and position of the ball at t = 5.35 s.

If a hiker that weighs 600 newtons climbs a 50 meter hill, how much gravitational potential energy has the hiker gained?
