1. Describe the three Newton's Law of Motion.

Answer:

1st law--Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This is normally taken as the definition of inertia. The key point here is that if there is no net forceacting on an object (if all the external forces cancel each other out) then the object will maintain a constant velocity. If that velocity is zero, then the object remains at rest. If an external force is applied, the velocity will change because of the force.

2nd— The second law explains how the velocity of an object changes when it is subjected to an external force. The law defines a force to be equal to change in momentum(mass times velocity) per change in time. Newton also developed the calculus of mathematics, and the "changes" expressed in the second law are most accurately defined in differential forms. (Calculus can also be used to determine the velocity and location variations experienced by an object subjected to an external force.) For an object with a constant mass m, the second law states that the force F is the product of an object's mass and its acceleration a:

F = m * a

For an external applied force, the change in velocity depends on the mass of the object. A force will cause a change in velocity; and likewise, a change in velocity will generate a force. The equation works both ways.

3rd law-- The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal force on object A. Notice that the forces are exerted on different objects. The third law can be used to explain the generation of lift by a wing and the production of thrust by a jet engine.

A sports car skids off of a wet mountain road at 48.5 m/s and lands in the river, 110
Oxana [17]

Answer:

  about 4.74 seconds

Explanation:

The time to fall distance d from height h is given by ...

  t = √(2d/g)

  t = √(2·110 m/(9.8 m/s^2)) ≈ 4.74 s

It will take the car about 4.74 seconds to fall 110 meters to the river.

__

We assume the car's speed is horizontal, so does not add or subtract anything to/from the time to fall from the height.

If the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and dry pavement is 0.84, what is the shortest distance in which you can st
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

Explanation:

Given;

coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.84

speed of the automobile, u = 29.0 m/s

To determine the  the shortest distance in which you can stop an automobile by locking the brakes, we apply the following equation;

v² = u² + 2ax

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

x is the shortest distance

First we determine a;

From Newton's second law of motion

∑F = ma

F is the kinetic friction that opposes the motion of the car

-Fk = ma

but, -Fk = -μN

-μN = ma

-μmg = ma

-μg = a

- 0.8 x 9.8 = a

-7.84 m/s² = a

Now, substitute in the value of a in the equation above

v² = u² + 2ax

when the automobile stops, the final velocity, v = 0

0 = 29² + 2(-7.84)x

0 = 841 - 15.68x

15.68x = 841

x = 841 / 15.68

x = 53.64 m

Thus, the shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

Blake stands in a canoe in the middle of a lake. The canoe is stationary. Blake holds an anchor mass of 15 kg, then throws it we
Inessa05 [86]

The velocity of the canoe is  1.7 m/s.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum in physics is the products of mass and velocity. Now we have to find momentum with the formula; p = mv

a) Initial momentum = (15)8 m/s + 135 = 255 Kgms-1

b) Since momentum is conserved, the total momentum after throwing the anchor is still 255 Kgms-1

c) The final velocity of the boat is obtained from;

255 Kgms-1 = (15Kg + 135 Kg) v

v = 255 Kgms-1/(15Kg + 135 Kg)

v = 1.7 m/s

Before starting this problem, review Conceptual Example 3 in your text. Suppose that the hail described there comes straight dow
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

0.9 N

Explanation:

The force exerted on an object is related to its change in momentum by:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force exerted

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t is the time interval

The change in momentum can be rewritten as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

So the formula can be rewritten as

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

In this problem we have:

\frac{m}{\Delta t}=0.030 kg/s is the mass rate

u=-15 m/s is the initial velocity

v=+15 m/s is the final velocity

Therefore, the force exerted by the hail on the roof is:

F=(0.030)(+15-(-15))=0.9 N
