Select the correct answer. In a video game, a ball moving at 0.6 meter/second collides with a wall. After the collision, the velocity of the ball changed to -0.4 meter/second. The collision takes 0.2 seconds to occur. What’s the acceleration of the ball during the collision? Use .
A.
-1.0 m/s2
B.
1.0 m/s2
C.
-5.0 m/s2
D.
5.0 m/s2
E.
0.24 m/s2

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
