Answer:

1. 571.43m/s

2. 142.9m and 342.9m

Explanation:

1.Take the difference in time.

1.2-0.7=0.7 seconds

Take the distance between them and divide with differnce in time.

400÷0.7=571.43 seconds.

2.Take the time of the two men and divide by two.

0.5÷2= 0.25 secs

1.2÷2= 0.6 secs

multiply each with the velocity.

0.25×571.43=142.9m

0.6×571.43=342.9m

If a 100-N net force acts on a 50-kg car, what will the acceleration of the car be?
Tema [17]
Newton's 2nd law of motion: 

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by (mass):     

                             Acceleration = (force) / (mass)

                                               =  (100 N) / (50 kg)

                                               =  2 m/s²

You have a pendulum clock made from a uniform rod of mass M and length L pivoting around one end of the rod. Its frequency is 1
drek231 [11]

The new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

     

The given parameters;

  • <em>Mass of the pendulum, = M </em>
  • <em>Length of the pendulum, = L</em>
  • <em>Initial angular speed, </em>\omega _i<em> = 1 rad/s</em>

The moment of inertia of the rod about the end is given as;

I_i = \frac{1}{3} ML^2

The moment of inertia of the rod between the middle and the end is calculated as;

I_f = \int\limits^L_{L/2} {r^2\frac{M}{L} } \, dr = \frac{M}{3L} [r^3]^L_{L/2} =  \frac{M}{3L} [L^3 - \frac{L^3}{8} ] = \frac{M}{3L} [\frac{7L^3}{8} ]= \frac{7ML^2}{24}

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

I _i \omega _i = I _f \omega _f\\\\\frac{ML^2}{3} (1 \ rad/s)= \frac{7ML^2}{24} \times \omega _f\\\\\frac{24 \times ML^2}{3 \times 7 ML^2} (1 \ rad/s)= \omega _f\\\\1.14 \ rad/s = \omega _f

Thus, the new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

An airplane has a momentum of 8.55 x 107 kg.m/s[S] and a velocity of 900 km/h[S]. Determine the mass of the airplane.
kow [346]

Answer:

342,000kg

Explanation:

p=mv

8.55*10^7 kg*m/s=m(900 km/h)

85,500,000 kg*m/s=m(900 km/h)

(85,500,000 kg*m/s)/(900 km/h)=m

Get same units.... 900km/h = 250m/s

m/s cancel in the division, you are left with just kg!!

85,500,000/250=342,000kg! That's it!

A protein molecule in an electrophoresis gel has a negative charge. The exact charge depends on the pH of the solution, but 30 e
Reika [66]

Answer:

7.401 * 10^(-15) N

Explanation:

30 electrons will have a charge:

30 * -1.6022 * 10^(-19) C

= - 4.806 * 10^(-18) C

The relationship between electric field and electric force is:

E = F/q

This means that force, F, is

|F| = |E|*|q|

|F| = |1540| * |-4.806 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = |-7401.24 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = 7.401 * 10^(-15) N
