Compare the collision between two baseballs and a catcher's mitt.
Case A: A baseball pitched at 40 m/s collides with a catcher's mitt and is brought
to a stop. The catcher holds the mitt rather rigidly and retracts backwards very little
as the ball strikes the mitt
Case B: An identical baseball pitched at 40 m/s collides with a catcher's mitt and
is brought to a stop. The catcher holds the mitt with a relaxed arm and retracts
backwards 30 cm as the ball strikes the mitt.

An electron and a proton have the same kinetic energy upon entering a region of constant magnetic field and their velocity vectors are perpendicular to the magnetic field. suppose the magnetic field is strong enough to allow the particles to circle in the field. note: you'll need to look up the masses for an electron and proton. 1) what is the ratio of the radii of their circular paths rp/re?

You have two photos of a person walking. one shows the person at the corner of third and main streets, the other shows the person at the corner of tenth and main streets. there are lampposts at every corner in this town, and the first picture shows it to be 10: 32: 00 exactly. the second picture shows it to be 10: 49: 30. you know three facts: (1) all of the clocks are synchronized; (2) there are exactly 12 equal-sized blocks per kilometer in this town; and (3) the streets that cross main in this area are numbered consecutively, with no interruptions. what is the person’s average speed in kilometers per hour?
