A 0.061 kg golf ball is struck by a golf club with a force of 299.4 N. The change in velocity of the ball is 54.3 m/s. How much time is the ball in contact with the club?

The time the ball is in contact with the club is approximately 0.011063 seconds

Explanation:

The question is with regards to Newton's second law of motion which states that a force is equal to the rate of change of momentum produced

The given parameters are;

The mass of the ball, m = 0.061 kg

The force with which the ball is struck with the golf club, F = 299.4 N

The change in velocity of the ball, Δv = 54.3 m/s

By Newton's second law, we have;

Where;

Δt = The time it takes the momentum of the object to change = The time the ball is in contact with the club

Substituting the known values, we get;

The time the ball is in contact with the club = Δt ≈ 0.011063 seconds.

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.
