    Thermal properties of matter caluculation

    A squash ball of mass 46g is struck against a wall so it hits with a speed of 40m/s, and rebounds with a speed of 25m/s. Calculate the temperature rise (s.h.c. of rubber is 1600J/kg/K) This is fine. I use the equation: heat energy = mass x shc x temperature change (40 - 25) = 0.046 x...
