Answer:
a) I = I₀/2, b) I = I₀/2 cos² θ
Explanation:
To answer these questions, let's analyze a little the way of working of a polarized
* When a non-polarized light hits a polarizer, the electric field that is not in the direction of the polarizer is absorbed, so the transmitted light is
i = I₀ / 2
and is polarized in the direction of the polarizer
* when a polarized light reaches the analyzer it must comply with Malus's law
I = I₁ cos² θ
where the angle is between the polarized light and the analyzer.
With this, let's answer the questions
a) When a polarizer is placed in the non-polarized light path, half of it is absorbed and only the light that has polarization in the direction of the polarizer is transmitted with an intensity of
I = I₀/2
b) when a polarizer and an analyzer are fitted, the intensity of the light transmitted by the analyzer is
I = I₀/2 cos² θ
where the final value depends on the angle between the polarizer and the analyzer.
Let's look at two extreme cases
θ = 0 I = Io / 2
θ = 90º I = 0
A woman was told in 2020 that she had exactly 15 years to live. If she travels away from the Earth at 0.8 c and then returns at the same speed, the last New Year's Day the doctors expect her to celebrate is:
Answer:
2035
Explanation:
The doctor does not travel with the woman, and therefore, he won't experience any relativistic effect on his time. The doctor will judge time by the time here on earth. Technically, the last new year's day the doctor, who is here on earth, would expect the woman to celebrate will be in 2020 + 15 years = 2035
A uniform bar has two small balls glued to its ends. The bar is 2.10 m long and with mass 3.70 kg , while the balls each have mass 0.700 kg and can be treated as point masses.
Required:

a. perpendicular to the bar through its center.
b. perpendicular to the bar through one of the balls.
c. parallel to the bar through both balls.
d. parallel to the bar and 0.500 m from it.
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
moment of inertia in the first case will be sum of moment of inertia of two balls + moment of inertia of bar
= 2 x .700 x (2.1 / 2 )² + 3.7 x 2.1² / 12
= 1.5435 + 1.35975
= 2.90325 kg m²
b )
moment of inertia required
= moment of inertia of bar + moment of inertia of the other ball
= 3.70 x (2.1² / 3 ) + .7 x 2.1²
= 5.439 + 3.087
= 8.526 kg m²
c )
In this case moment of inertia of the combination = 0 as distance of masses from given axis is zero .
d )
masses = 3.7 + .7 = 4.4 kg
distance from axis = .5 m
moment of inertia about given axis
= 4.4 x .5²
= 1.1 kg m².
The entropy of any substance at any temperature above absolute zero is called the: Select the correct answer below:
a. absolute entropy
b. Third Law entropy
c. standard entropy
d. free entropy
e. none of the above
Answer:
b. Third Law entropy
Explanation:
Third law entropy: In physics, the term "third law entropy" or "the third law of thermodynamics" states that the specific entropy of a particular system at "absolute zero" is considered as a "well-defined constant". It occurs because any system at "zero temperature" tends to exists or persists in its "ground state" in order for the entropy to be determined or described only by the "degeneracy" of the given ground state.
In the question above, the correct answer is option b.

A man using a 70kg garden roller on a level surface, exerts a force of 200N at 45 degrees to the ground. find the vertical force of the roller on the ground if,
i.he pulls
ii.he pushes the roller
Answer:
i) 545.2 N upwards
ii) 828.2 N downwards
Explanation:
mass of the roller = 70 kg
force exerted = 200 N
angle the force makes with the ground ∅ = 45°
weight of the roller W = mg
where
m is the mass of the roller
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
weight of the roller = 70 x 9.81 = 686.7 N
The effective vertical force exerted by the man = F sin ∅ = 200 x sin 45°
==> F = 200 x 0.707 = 141.5 N
i) if the man pulls, then the exerted force will be in opposite direction to the weight of the roller vertically upwards
Resultant vertical force = 686.7 N - 141.5 N = 545.2 N upwards
ii) if he pushes, then the exerted force will be in the direction of the weight vertically downwards
Resultant vertical force = 686.7 N + 141.5 N = 828.2 N downwards

Find an analytic expression for p(V)p(V)p(V), the pressure as a function of volume, during the adiabatic expansion.
Answer:
In an adiabatic process we have
pV γ = const..
This explains that the pressure is a function of volume, p ( V ) ,
So can be written as:
p ( V ) × V γ = p 0 V γ 0 ,
or p ( V ) = p 0 V 0 / V γ
= p 0 V 0 / V ^(7 / 5)
You have a lightweight spring whose unstretched length is 4.0 cm. First, you attach one end of the spring to the ceiling and hang a 1.8 g mass from it. This stretches the spring to a length of 5.1 cm . You then attach two small plastic beads to the opposite ends of the spring, lay the spring on a frictionless table, and give each plastic bead the same charge. This stretches the spring to a length of 4.3 cm .
Requried:
What is the magnitude of the charge (in nC) on each bead?
Answer:
2.2nC
Explanation:
Call the amount by which the spring’s unstretched length L,
the amount it stretches while hanging x1
and the amount it stretches while on the table x2.
Combining Hooke’s law with Newton’s second law, given that the stretched spring is not accelerating,
we have mg−kx1 =0, or k = mg /x1 , where k is the spring constant. On the other hand,
applying Coulomb’s law to the second part tells us ke q2/ (L+x2)2 − kx2 = 0 or q2 = kx2(L+x2)2/ke,
where ke is the Coulomb constant. Combining these,
we get q = √(mgx2(L+x2)²/x1ke =2.2nC
5. The speed of a transverse wave on a string is 170 m/s when the string tension is 120 ????. To what value must the tension be changed to raise the wave speed to 180 m/s?
Answer:
The tension on string when the speed was raised is 134.53 N
Explanation:
Given;
Tension on the string, T = 120 N
initial speed of the transverse wave, v₁ = 170 m/s
final speed of the transverse wave, v₂ = 180 m/s
The speed of the wave is given as;
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]
where;
μ is mass per unit length
[tex]v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu} \\\\\mu = \frac{T}{v^2} \\\\\frac{T_1}{v_1^2} = \frac{T_2}{v_2^2}[/tex]
The final tension T₂ will be calculated as;
[tex]T_2 = \frac{T_1 v_2^2}{v_1^2} \\\\T_2 = \frac{120*180^2}{170^2} \\\\T_2 = 134.53 \ N[/tex]
Therefore, the tension on string when the speed was raised is 134.53 N
A spherical balloon has a radius of 6.95m and is filled with helium. The density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3, and the density of air is 1.29 kg/m3. The skin and structure of the balloon has a mass of 960kg . Neglect the buoyant force on the cargo volume itself. Determine the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift.
Answer:
602.27 kg
Explanation:
The computation of the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift is shown below:-
Volume of helium inside the ballon= (4 ÷ 3) × π × r^3
= (4 ÷ 3) × 3.14 × 6.953
= 1406.19 m3
Mass the balloon can carry = volume × (density of air-density of helium)
= 1406.19 × (1.29-0.179)
= 1562.27 kg
Mass of cargo it can carry = Mass it can carry - Mass of structure
= 1562.27 - 960
= 602.27 kg
A bar magnet is dropped from above and falls through the loop of wire. The north pole of the bar magnet points downward towards the page as it falls. Which statement is correct?a. The current in the loop always flows in a clockwise direction. b·The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. c. The current in the loop flows first in a clockwise, then in a counterclockwise direction. d. The current in the loop flows first in a counterclockwise, then in a clockwise direction. e. No current flows in the loop because both ends of the magnet move through the loop.
Answer:
b. The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction.
Explanation:
When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.
The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. Hence, option (b) is correct.
The given problem is based on the concept and fundamentals of magnetic bars. When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. There is some magnitude of current induced in the wire.
This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.Thus, we can say that the current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. Hence, option (b) is correct.

A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is then pulled down 6.0 cm and released. If the ball makes 30 oscillations in 20 s, what are its (a) mass and (b) maximum speed?
Answer:
a
[tex]m = 0.169 \ kg[/tex]
b
[tex]|v_{max} |= 0.5653 \ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The spring constant is [tex]k = 14 \ N/m[/tex]
The maximum extension of the spring is [tex]A = 6.0 \ cm = 0.06 \ m[/tex]
The number of oscillation is [tex]n = 30[/tex]
The time taken is [tex]t = 20 \ s[/tex]
Generally the the angular speed of this oscillations is mathematically represented as
[tex]w = \frac{2 \pi}{T}[/tex]
where T is the period which is mathematically represented as
[tex]T = \frac{t}{n}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]T = \frac{20}{30 }[/tex]
[tex]T = 0.667 \ s[/tex]
Thus
[tex]w = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 0.667}[/tex]
[tex]w = 9.421 \ rad/s[/tex]
this angular speed can also be represented mathematically as
[tex]w = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]
=> [tex]m =\frac{k }{w^2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]m =\frac{ 15 }{(9.421)^2}[/tex]
[tex]m = 0.169 \ kg[/tex]
In SHM (simple harmonic motion )the equation for velocity is mathematically represented as
[tex]v = - Awsin (wt)[/tex]
The velocity is maximum when [tex]wt = \(90^o) \ or \ 1.5708\ rad[/tex]
[tex]v_{max} = - A* w[/tex]
=> [tex]|v_{max} |= A* w[/tex]
=> [tex]|v_{max} |= 0.06 * 9.421[/tex]
=> [tex]|v_{max} |= 0.5653 \ m/s[/tex]
The primary difference between a barometer and a manometer is
A. a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure gauge pressure.
B. a barometer uses mercury, while a manometer can use any liquid. a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure absolute pressure.
C a barometer reads in mm, while a manometer reads in Pa.
D a barometer can measure either positivee or negative pressure, while a manometer only
E positive pressure. measures
Answer:
a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure gauge pressure.
Explanation:
A barometer measures air pressure at any locality with sea level as the reference.
However, a manometer is used to measure all pressures especially gauge pressures. Thus, if the aim is to measure the pressure at any point below a fluid surface, a barometer is used to determine the air pressure. The manometer may now be used to determine the gauge pressure
The algebraic sum of these two values gives the absolute pressure.
An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 520 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel slits separated by a distance (between centers) of 0.440 mm.
1. If the slits are very narrow, what would be the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima?
2. What would be the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima in this case?
3. Let the slits have a width 0.310 mm . In terms of the intensity I0 at the center of the central maximum, what is the intensity at the angular position of θ1?
4. What is the intensity at the angular position of θ2?
Answer:
1) θ = 0.00118 rad, 2) θ = 0.00236 rad , 3) I / I₀ = 0.1738, 4) I / Io = 0.216
Explanation:
In the double-slit interference phenomenon it is explained for constructive interference by the equation
d sin θ = m λ
1) the first order maximum occurs for m = 1
sin θ = λ / d
θ = sin⁻¹ λ / d
let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
λ = 520 nm = 520 10⁻⁹ θ = 0.00118 radm
d = 0.440 mm = 0.440 10⁻³ m ³
let's calculate
θ = sin⁻¹ (520 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)
θ = sin⁻¹ (1.18 10⁻³)
θ = 0.00118 rad
2) the second order maximum occurs for m = 2
θ = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)
θ = sin⁻¹ (2 5¹20 10⁻⁹ / 0.44 10⁻³)
θ = 0.00236 rad
3) To calculate the intensity of the interference spectrum, the diffraction phenomenon must be included, so the equation remains
I = I₀ cos² (π d sin θ /λ ) sinc² (pi b sin θ /λ )
where the function sinc = sin x / x
and b is the width of the slits
we caption the values
x = π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹)
x = 2.21
I / I₀ = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00118 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin (2.21) /2.21)²
remember angles are in radians
I / I₀ = cos² (3.0945) [0.363] 2
I / I₀ = 0.9978 0.1318
I / I₀ = 0.1738
4) the maximum second intensity is
I / I₀ = cos² (π d sinθ / λ) sinc² (πb sin θ /λ)
x =π 0.310 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹)
x = 4.41
I / Io = cos² (π 0.44 10⁻³ sin 0.00236 / 520 10⁻⁹) (sin 4.41 / 4.41)²
I / Io = cos² 6.273 0.216
I / Io = 0.216

Which best identifies the requirements for work to be performed? an object that has a force acting on it an object that is moving and has no net force a force acting on a motionless object a force that moves an object
Answer:
a force that moves an object
Explanation:
the formula for work is force * distance
This question involves the concepts of work, force, and displacement.
The statement that best identifies the requirements for work to be performed is "a force that moves an object".
Work is defined as the product of force applied on an object and the distance moved by the object. Mathematically,
Work = (Force)(Displacement)
Hence, both the applied force and the displacement of the object as a result of the application of the force is necessary for the work to be done. If any one of these values becomes zero, the work automatically becomes zero, which means no work is performed.

What is the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away? Assume the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm , and express the answer in diopters.
Answer:
The power of the eye is 51.64 diopters
Explanation:
The power of the eye is given by;
[tex]P = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i}[/tex]
where;
P is the power of the eye in diopter
f is the focal length of the eye
[tex]d_o[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the object
[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the image
Given;
[tex]d_o[/tex] = 61.0 cm = 0.61 m
[tex]d_i[/tex] = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m
[tex]P = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i} \\\\P = \frac{1}{0.61} + \frac{1}{0.02} \\\\P = 51.64 \ D[/tex]
Therefore, the power of the eye is 51.64 diopters.
The power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D
The power of a lens is a reciprocal of its focal length and it is expressed as:
[tex]P=\frac{1}{f}[/tex]
According to the mirror formula
[tex]\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{d_i} +\frac{1}{d_0}[/tex]
where
[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the image = 61.0cm = 0.61m
[tex]d_0[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the object = 2.00cm = 0.02m
[tex]P=\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{0.02} +\frac{1}{0.61}\\P=50+1.639\\P=51.639D[/tex]
Hence the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D

Express your answer in terms of V0 and I0.
Part B
What is the inductance L of the inductor?
Express your answer in terms of V0, f, and I0.
Answer:
a. The reactance of the inductor is XL = V₀/I₀
b. The inductance of the inductor is L = V₀/2πfI₀
Explanation:
PART A
Since the voltage across the inductor V₀ = I₀XL where V₀ = e.m.f of voltage source, I₀ = current amplitude and XL = reactance of the inductor,
XL = V₀/I₀
So, the reactance of the inductor is XL = V₀/I₀

The inductance of the inductor is gotten from XL = 2πfL where f = frequency of voltage source and L = inductance of inductor
Since XL = V₀/I₀ = 2πfL
V₀/I₀ = 2πfL
L = V₀/2πfI₀
So the inductance of the inductor is L = V₀/2πfI₀
A) The reactance XL of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex]
B) The Inductance L of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex]
A) Expressing the Reactance of the inductor
Voltage across the Inductor = V₀ = I₀XL ---- ( 1 )
Where : V₀ = emf voltage , I₀ = current
from equation ( 1 )
∴ XL ( reactance ) = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex]
B ) Expressing the Inductance of the Inductor
Inductance of an inductor is expressed as : XL = 2πfL
from part A
XL = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex] = 2πfL
∴ The inductance L of the Inductor expressed in terms of V₀, F and I₀
L = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex]
Hence we can conclude that The reactance XL of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex] and The Inductance L of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex] .

Give an example of a fad diet that is not healthy and one that is healthy. Explain how you know the difference.
Answer:
Good Diet: ! gallon of water a day, Fruits, Vegetables, White meats(Chicken), Don't eat past 3 PM.
Bad Diet: Pizza, Red meat, Baked goods, Eating at late hours.
Explanation: I know the difference because, When you drink water first thing in the morning it gets your metabolism running. Than means you can digest foods better, you want to feed your body good foods but you should not eat until you feel stuffed. You should eat until you are no longer starving. Than you should drink a cup of water in between meals. I know you should not eat past 3 pm because your body needs time to digest foods because you should never go to sleep with a full stomach. I know the difference between good food and bad food because when you eat healthy food and a balanced diet, your body will have more energy and you wont feel tired afterwards. Eating bad foods and food with artificial sugars will clump up in your kidneys, and your body will have small bursts of energy but you will feel lazy afterwards...Your body is supposed to stay energized from a healthy meal in order to give you the energy your body needs to exercise. If you feel droopy all the time and you don't want to do anything, than you are unhealthy.
Answer:
A vegetarian diet is an example of a good fad diet if you do it correctly. It can help you get lots of veggies and good nutrients from them while still following the non-meat diet you want. This can be effective and good for weight loss becasue you are still eating and getting all the good nutrients and calories from less fatty foods.
Vegan diet (some can be successful but many people fail and do not do good that is why I choose this) The problem with this fad diet is that it can cause nutritional deficiencies and lead to a host of additional health problems, including negatively impacting hormonal health and metabolism. Many people also struggle to find healthy vegan food and end up eating bad and fatty foods instead.

The ability of a water strider to move along the surface of water without breaking the surface is due to:
Answer:
The ability of a water strider to move along the surface of water without breaking the surface is due to:
SURFACE TENSION
Explanation:
this is because Water molecules are more attracted to each other than they are to other materials, so they generate a force to stay together called surface tension. Which allows the strider to move without breaking the surface
If 1.7 kg of 238Pu is required to power the spacecraft's data transmitter, for how long after launch would scientists be able to receive data? Round to the nearest year. Do not round intermediate calculations.
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
The isotope of Plutonium 238Pu is used to make thermoeletric power sources for spacecraft. Suppose that a space probe was launched in 2012 with 3.5 kg of 238Pu.
(a) If the half-life of 238Pu is 87.7 yr, write a function of the form [tex]Q(t)=Q_{0}e^{-kt}[/tex] to model the quantity Q(t) of 238Pu left after t years. Round ythe value of k to 3 decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
(b) If 1.7kg of 238Pu is required to power the spacecraft's data transmitter, for low long after launch would scientists be able to receive data? Round to the nearest year. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer: (a) [tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]
(b) 91 years.
Explanation:
(a) Half-life is time it takes a substance to decrease to half of itself, i.e.:
Q(t) = [tex]0.5Q_{0}[/tex]
[tex]0.5Q_{0}=Q_{0}e^{-87.7k}[/tex]
[tex]0.5=e^{-87.7k}[/tex]
[tex]ln(0.5)=ln(e^{-87.7k})[/tex]
[tex]ln(0.5)=-87.7k[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{ln(0.5)}{-87.7}[/tex]
k = 0.0079
Knowing k and [tex]Q_{0}[/tex]=3.5kg, function is [tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]
(b) Using function:
[tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]
[tex]1.7=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.0079t}=\frac{1.7}{3.5}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.0079t}=0.4857[/tex]
[tex]ln(e^{-0.0079t})=ln(0.4857)[/tex]
[tex]-0.0079t=-0.7221[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-0.7221}{-0.0079}[/tex]
t = 91.41
t ≈ 91 years
Scientists will be able to receive data for approximately 91 years.

In order to waken a sleeping child, the volume on an alarm clock is doubled. Under this new scenario, how much more energy will be striking the child's ear drums each second?
Answer:4 times more energy will be striking the childbearing
Explanation:
Because Volume is directly proportional to amplitude of sound. Energy is proportional to amplitude squared. If you triple the amplitude, you multiply the energy by 4
Which is produced around a wire when an electrical current is in the wire? magnetic field solenoid electron flow electromagnet
Answer:
A. magnetic field
Explanation:
The magnetic field is produced around a wire when an electrical current is in the wire because of the magnetic effect of the electric current therefore the correct answer is option A .
What is a magnetic field ?A magnetic field could be understood as an area around a magnet, magnetic material, or an electric charge in which magnetic force is exerted.
As given in the problem statement we have to find out what is produced around a wire when an electrical current is in the wire.
The magnetic field is produced as a result when an electrical current is passed through the conducting wire .
Option A is the appropriate response because a wire's magnetic field is created when an electrical current flows through it due to the magnetic influence of the electric current .

An electron moves on a circular orbit in a uniform magnetic field of 7.83×10-4 T. The kinetic energy of the electron is 55.3 eV. What is the diameter of the orbit?
Answer:
3.9E-8
Explanation:
We know that
Mv²/r = Bqv
So
r= mv/Bq
But E is 1/2mv² which is 5.53eV
m²v² =2m x 5.53eV
mv = √( 2 x 9.1E-31)
So
r= √( 2 x9.1E-31 x 5.53)/ 7.83x10^-4 x1.6E-19
= 3.9x10-8cm
Explanation:
A soccer ball of mass 0.4 kg is moving horizontally with a speed of 20 m/s when it is kicked by a player. The kicking force is so large that the ball flies up at an angle of 30 degrees above the ground. The player however claims (s)he aimed her/his foot at a 40 degree angle above the ground. Calculate the average kicking force magnitude and the final speed of the ball, if you are given that the foot was in contact with the ball for one hundredth of a second.
Answer:
v_{f} = 74 m/s, F = 230 N
Explanation:
We can work on this exercise using the relationship between momentum and moment
I = ∫ F dt = Δp
bold indicates vectors
we can write this equations in its components
X axis
Fₓ t = m ( -v_{xo})
Y axis
t = m (v_{yf} - v_{yo})
in this case with the ball it travels horizontally v_{yo} = 0
Let's use trigonometry to write the final velocities and the force
sin 30 = v_{yf} / vf
cos 30 = v_{xf} / vf
v_{yf} = vf sin 30
v_{xf} = vf cos 30
sin40 = F_{y} / F
F_{y} = F sin 40
cos 40 = Fₓ / F
Fₓ = F cos 40
let's substitute
F cos 40 t = m ( cos 30 - vₓ₀)
F sin 40 t = m (v_{f} sin 30-0)
we have two equations and two unknowns, so the system can be solved
F cos 40 0.1 = 0.4 (v_{f} cos 30 - 20)
F sin 40 0.1 = 0.4 v_{f} sin 30
we clear fen the second equation and subtitles in the first
F = 4 sin30 /sin40 v_{f}
F = 3.111 v_{f}
(3,111 v_{f}) cos 40 = 4 v_{f} cos 30 - 80
v_{f} (3,111 cos 40 -4 cos30) = - 80
v_{f} (- 1.0812) = - 80
v_{f} = 73.99
v_{f} = 74 m/s
now we can calculate the force
F = 3.111 73.99
F = 230 N
