An airliner flying at 600 mph hits a 480 g duck that is 1 ft long. Estimate what average force the airliner experiences from this collision. 1 mi = 1609 m, 1 m = 3.28 ft, so the collision occurs while the airliner travels 1 ft. (Since you only know the mass of the duck, you must isolate it and find the force on it. Then use the 3rd law to relate that force to that experienced by the airliner. Assume that when the duck first makes contact with the plane it is brought to a stop and then after travelling 1 ft it is going 600 mph. You must convert the 600 mph into m/s using unit conversions).

Calculus and Baseball Applied Project 1 from section 6.5 of Calculus: Early Transcendentals by James Stewart due: May 14, 2020, by 11:59 pm In this project we explore three of the many applications of calculus to baseball. The physical interactions of the game, especialy the collision of ball and bat, are quite complex and their models are discussed in detail in a book by Rober Adair, The Physics of Baseball, 3rd ed. (New York, 2002). 1. It may surprise you...
TRIAL 1 600 2.610 9.91 o.2 0.39 2.62 43 Average Result: The average speed of the given ball is velas hralels 1) Pull the penduum to the side, insert the ball into the gun, and compress and latch the gun spring Release the pendulum so that it hangs vertically 2) Fire the gun. The pendulum will latch near the highest point of its swing. Measure ne height ha·the vertical distance from the pendulum platform to the center of the ball...
