The momentum of the brick is 15.84 Kg m/s.

We have a 1.6 kg brick parachuting straight downward.

We have to determine its Momentum.

<h3>What is Linear Momentum ?</h3>

The linear momentum of a body of mass M moving with velocity v is -

p = mv.

According to the question -

Mass = 1.6 Kg

Velocity = 9.9 m/s

Therefore -

p = 1.6 x 9.9 = 15.84 Kg m/s

Hence, the momentum of the brick is 15.84 Kg m/s.

A dog of mass 4 kg runs up a hill of height 8 m. How much gravitational potential energy does the dog gain?

Genrish500 [490]

A. 314 because when you use the formula for the GPE ; GPE=MGH or means mass times gravity time height (4x8x9.8) and thats equivalent to 313.6 which rounds up to 314. Hope it helps

Determine the CM of a rod assuming its linear mass density λ (its mass per unit length) varies linearly from λ = λ0 at the left

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

$x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$

$I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$

Explanation:

Here mass density of rod is varying so we have to use the concept of integration to find mass and location of center of mass.

At any distance x from point A mass density

$\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{2\lambda _o-\lambda _o}{L}x$

$\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x$

Lets take element mass at distance x

dm =λ dx

mass moment of inertia

$dI=\lambda x^2dx$

So total moment of inertia

$I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda x^2dx$

By putting the values

$I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda_ ox+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x^3 dx$

By integrating above we can find that

$I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$

Now to find location of center mass

$x_c = \dfrac{\int xdm}{dm}$

$x_c = \dfrac{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_ 0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})xdx}{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})}$

Now by integrating the above

$x_c=\dfrac{\dfrac{L^2}{2}+\dfrac{L^3}{3L}}{L+\dfrac{L^2}{2L}}$

$x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$

So mass moment of inertia $I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$ and location of center of mass $x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$
