A particle moving at speed 0. 32 c has momentum p0. the speed of the particle is increased to 0. 72 c. what is its momentum now?

1 answer:

6 0

A particle moving at speed 0.32 c has momentum P₀. the speed of the particle is increased to 0.72 c then its momentum would be 2.25P₀.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

It can be defined as the product of the mass and the speed of the particle, it represents the combined effect of mass and the speed of any particle, and the momentum of any particle is expressed in Kg m/s unit.

Mathematically the formula of the momentum is

P = mv

where P is the momentum of the particle

m is the mass of the particle

v is the velocity by which the particle is moving

As given in the question a particle moving at speed 0.32 c has momentum P₀. the speed of the particle is increased to 0.72 c

by using the formula of the momentum and substituting the values of the velocity

P =mv

As mentioned in the question when the particle is moving with 0.32c velocity it has a momentum of P₀

P₀ = m*(0.32c)

If the speed of the particle is increased to 0.72 c the momentum would be

P=m*(0.72c)

by dividing the second equation from the first one

P₀/P = 0.32c/0.72c

P₀/P = 0.44

P =2.25P₀

Thus, the increased momentum of the particle would be 2.25P₀

An object is pulled up an incline plane at a constant velocity as the picture above shows. Calculate the tension on the rope.

WARRIOR [948]

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{545N}$

Since the object is being pulled at a constant velocity, the forces must be balanced.

Since there is no movement vertically, we must take into account the horizontal forces. We can also assume a positive acceleration to be in the direction of motion.

The acceleration and force due to gravity on an incline is:

a = gsinФ

F = MgsinФ

∑F = -MgsinФ + T

Since it is getting pulled at a constant velocity, ∑F = 0. So:

0 = -MgsinФ + T

MgsinФ = T

Solve for T by plugging in values. Let g = 10 m/s²

T = (120)(10)sin(27) ≈ 545 N

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There was a force, 500 lb.

and a motion in the direction of the force, in this case a negative direction.

Therefore the lifter did negative work on the mass of the barbell against gravity.

Gravity would do positive work against the mass of weight when the lifter lowers the barbell as the force vector and the motion vector are in the same direction.

Which of the following represents a joule?

Andru [333]

Answer:

d. N*m

Explanation:

Workdone which is measured in Joules is calculated using the formula;

Workdone = force * distance

Where;

Force is measured in Newton

Distance is measured in meters.

Therefore, workdone also has the measurement of Newton-meters.
