The impulse shared by the object equals the difference in momentum of the object. In equation form,

F • t = m • Δ v. In a collision, objects experience an impulse; the impulse causes and is equal to the difference in momentum.

<h3>How to calculate  thrust provided by the rocket engines is 10 kN (10 000 N).?</h3>

a)There is this impulse-momentum change equation.

where m$ is the mass of a body, $F$ is a force acting to the body, $t$ is time and $D E L A T A N\}=V_{2}-V_{1}$ is the change of velocity.We consider everything is happen along a straight line, and gravitation does not participate.So, the increase of momentum is $\mathrm{F}^{*} \mathrm{t}=10000 \mathrm{~N} * 60$ seconds $=600000 \mathrm{~N}^{*} \mathrm{~s}=600000\left(\mathrm{~kg}^{*} \mathrm{~m}\right)^{*} \mathrm{~s} / \mathrm{s}^{\wedge} 2=600000 \mathrm{~kg}{ }^{*} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$.

We consider everything exits happen along a straight line, and gravitation does not participate.

So, the increase of momentum is F×t = 10000 N × 60 seconds = 600000 N*s = 600000 (kg*m)*s/s^2 = 600000 kg*m/s.

$$\Delta(\mathrm{V})=\frac{\mathrm{F.t}}{\mathrm{m}}=\frac{600000}{1200}=500 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} .$$

New velocity after  engine was firing during 60 seconds is 2000 + 500 = 2500 m/s.

Starting from rest, a 2-m-long pendulum swings from an angleof
Andrews [41]

Answer:

D.) 1m/s

Explanation:

Assume the initial angle of the swing is 12.8 degree with respect to the vertical. We can calculate the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point by first calculate the vertical distance from this point the the pivot point:

L_1 = L*cos(12.8) = 2*0.975 = 1.95 m

where L is the pendulum length

The vertical distance from the lowest point to the pivot point L_2 is the pendulum length 2m

this means the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point is simply:

L_3 = L_2 - L_1 = 2 - 1.95 = 0.05 m

As the pendulum travel (vertically) from the initial point to the bottom point, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the mass of the pendulum, g  = 10 m/s2 is the constant gravitational acceleration, h = 0.05 is the vertical it travels, v is the pendulum velocity at the bottom, which we are trying to solve for.

The m on both sides of the equation cancel out

v^2 = 2gh = 2*10*0.05 = 1

v = \sqrt{1} = 1 m/s

so D is the correct answer

If the bonds in the reactants of Figure 7-3 contained 432 kJ of chemical energy and the bonds in the
Yuri [45]

Answer:

  • <u>The energy change would be 46kJ</u>
  • <u>The energy would be absorbed</u>

Explanation:

The <em>energy change </em>during a chemical reation, i.e. the reaction energy, is equal to the chemical energy stored in the<em> bonds of the products </em>less the chemical energy stored in the <em>bonds of the reactants</em>.

Hence:

  • <em>Energy change</em> = 478 kJ - 432kJ = 46kJ

The change is positive, this is, the chemical energy of the products is greater than the chemical energy of the reactants.

That corresponds to the second graph, where the level of the energy of the products in the graph is higher than the level of the energy of the reactants. Therefore, the conclusion is that the reaction <em>absorbed energy</em> and it is endothermic.

What is the Sl unit for speed
Akimi4 [234]

Answer: meter per second

Explanation: meter per second

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the meter per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometer per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.

If you wanted to produce more power,what could you do to maximize power
PSYCHO15rus [73]

In physics, power is defined as energy per unit time.  You will also hear it described as work per unit time.  The standard unit of measure for power is the watt, where a watt is defined as joules (energy) per second (time).  This is expressed as a fraction as J/s.  If you wanted to increase the power in any operation, you can either increase the energy (more joules) or reduce the time (fewer seconds).
