Correct Question:
A hockey player receives a corner shot at a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of 30° with the y-axis and then shoots the ball along the x-axis with a speed of 30 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 100 gm and it remains in contact with the hockey stick for 0.01s the Force imparted to the ball in the x-direction is?
Answer:
- Force (F) Imparted is 375 N.
Given:
- Angle made with y - axis (θ) = 30°
- Mass of Ball (M) = 100
- Time of contact (t) = 0.01 sec
- Initial velocity of ball (u) = 15 m/s.
- Final velocity of ball (v) = 30 m/s.
Explanation:
From Newton's second law of motion.
Now,
Substituting the values,
Now, Here as the Initial velocity is making an angle with the y - axis we need to resolve it into Components.
we get
- Along y - axis = u cos 30°
- Along x - axis = u sin 30°
As we need to Find the Force along x axis we need to consider only u sin 30°.
Substituting,
Here we took u sin 30° has negative as its Direction is opposite to the final velocity (v)
∵ [1 gm = 10⁻³ Kg] Therefore,
∵ sin 30° = ½
∴ Force (F) Imparted along x - axis is 375 N.
