A ball with a mass of 4 kg is initially traveling at 2 m/s and has a 5 N force applied for 3 s. What is the initial momentum of the ball?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

The initial momentum of the ball is 8 kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball is 4 kg

Initial speed of the ball is 2 m/s

Force applied to the ball is 5 N for 3 seconds

It is required to find the initial momentum of the ball. Initial momentum means that the product of mass and initial velocity of the ball. It is given as :

$p_i=mu\n\np_i=4\ kg* 2\ m/s\n\np_i=8\ kg-m/s$

So, the initial momentum of the ball is 8 kg-m/s.

Two cars, a Porsche Boxster convertible and a Toyota Scion xB, are traveling at constant speeds in the same direction. Suppose, instead, that the Boxster is initially 170 m behind the Scion. The speed of the Boxster is 24.4 m/s and the speed of the Scion is 18.6 m/s. How much time does it take for the Boxster to catch the Scion

Answers

Answer:

It will take 29.31 seconds for the Boxster to catch the Scion

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

lets say Toyota Scion xB is car A and Porsche Boxster convertible is B and Toyota Scion xB is car A

the distance travelled by car A is

x = $V_(A)$ × t

where $V_(A)$ is the speed of the car and t is time

the distance travelled by car B before reaching car A will be;

x + x₀ = $V_(B)$ × t

Now lets replace x by $V_(A)$ × t

( $V_(A)$ × t) + x₀ = $V_(B)$ × t

x₀ = ( $V_(B)$ × t) - ( $V_(A)$ × t)

x₀ = t ( $V_(B)$ - $V_(A)$ )

t = x₀ / ( $V_(B)$ - $V_(A)$ )

so we substitute

t = 170 m / (24.4 - 18.6)

t = 170 / 5.8

t = 29.31 s

Therefore; it will take 29.31 s for the Boxster to catch the Scion

A suspended platform of negligible mass is connected to the floor below by a long vertical spring of force constant 1200 N/m. A circus performer of mass 70 kg falls from rest onto the platform from a height of 5.8 m above it. Find the maximum spring compression

Answers

Answer:

The maximum spring compression = 3.21 m

Explanation:

The height of the circus performer above the platform connected to string material = 5.8 m

Let the maximum compression of the spring from the impact of the circus performer be x.

According to the law of conservation of energy, the difference in potential energy of the circus performer between the initial height and the level at which spring is compressed to is equal to the work done on the spring to compress it by x

Workdone on the spring by the circus performer = (1/2)kx²

where k = spring constant = 1200 N/m

Workdone on the spring by the circus performer = (1/2)(1200)x² = 600x²

The change in potential energy of the circus performer = mg (5.8 + x)

m = mass of the circus performer = 70 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The change in potential energy of the circus performer = (70)(9.8)(5.8 + x) = (3978.8 + 686x)

600x² = 3978.8 + 686x

600x² - 686x - 3978.8 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation

x = 3.21 m or - 2.07 m

Since the negative answer doesn't satisfy the laws of physics, our correct answer is 3.21 m

Hope this Helps!!!

Why Coulomb force is called "Mutual Force"???????????????????????????????????????

Answers

Answer

The Columb's law is the same as Gravitational law

Explanation

As we see the formula of both Coulomb and Gravitational Law,

$F_g = GM_1M_2/R_2$ (1)

$F_c = kq_1q_2/r_2$ (2)

The masses (M) in formula (1) experiencing the force of gravitational pull with each other which varies with changing the distance. In the formula (2), the charges also are felling the forces on each other which varies with distance. The charges and masses are just like the objects which are experiencing the forces which have a common factor as distance. The gravitational force is also called the mutual forces.

Which of the following is a TRUE statement? a. It is possible for heat to flow spontaneously from a hot body to a cold one or from a cold one to a hot one, depending on whether or not the process is reversible or irreversible.
b. It is not possible to convert work entirely into heat.
c. The second law of thermodynamics is a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics.
d. It is impossible to transfer heat from a cooler to a hotter body.
e. All of these statements are false.

Answers

Answer:

e. All of these statements are false.

Explanation:

As we know that heat transfer take place from high temperature to low temperature.

It is possible to convert all work into heat but it is not possible to convert all heat in to work some heat will be reject to the surrounding.

The first law of thermodynamics is the energy conservation law.

Second law of thermodynamics states that it is impossible to construct a device which convert all energy into work without rejecting the heat to the surrounding.

By using heat pump ,heat can transfer from cooler body to the hotter body.

Therefore all the answer is False.

Suppose that the speedometer of a truck is set to read the linear speed of the truck, but uses a device that actually measures the angular speed of the tires. If larger-diameter tires are mounted on the truck, will the reading on the speedometer be correct? If not, will the reading be greater than or less than the true linear speed of the truck? Why?

Answers

The measurement will be significantly affected.

Recall that the relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity is subject to the formula

$v = \omega r$ ,

Where r indicates the radius and $\omega$ the angular velocity.

As the radius increases, it is possible that the calibration is delayed and a higher linear velocity is indicated, that to the extent that the velocity is directly proportional to the radius of the tires.
