Answer:

0.16 kgm/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of pellet = 2 g

m_2 = Mass of golf ball = 45 g

u_1 = Initial Velocity of pellet  = 60 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of golf ball = 0 m/s

v_1 = Final Velocity of pellet = 40 m/s

v_2 = Final Velocity of golf ball

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=0.002\times 60+0-0.002\times 40\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=0.04

As the golf ball is being shot 4 times every second the momentum delivered to the golf ball each second is 4\times 0.04=0.16\ kgm/s

What is the acceleration of a softball if it hits the ground with a force 0.50 kg and hits the catchers glove with a force of 25
Rom4ik [11]

Acceleration of the ball is 50 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the ball can be found by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

For the ball in this problem, we have

m = 0.50 kg (mass)

F = 25 N (force)

thereofre, the acceleration of the ball is

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{25}{0.50}=50 m/s^2

When a driver presses the brake pedal, his car can stop with an acceleration of -5.4m/s^2. How far will the car travel while com
Dahasolnce [82]
Information that is given:
a = -5.4m/s^2
v0 = 25 m/s
---------------------
S = ?
Calculate the S(distance car traveled) with the formula for velocity of decelerated motion:
v^2 = v0^2 - 2aS
The velocity at the end of the motion equals zero (0) because the car stops, so v=0.
0 = v0^2 - 2aS
v0^2 = 2aS
S = v0^2/2a
S = (25 m/s)^2/(2×5.4 m/s^2)
S = (25 m/s)^2/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = (625 m^2/s^2)/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = 57.87 m

Why is Pluto now called a dwarf planet
zvonat [6]
Before Pluto was discovered, it was predicted. Astronomers had observed that massive objects can affect the orbits of its neighbors, and, after seeing deviations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, assumed something substantial existed beyond their orbits.
When Pluto was spotted, it was thought to be the predicted object and was identified as a ninth planet.
A few decades later, astronomers started discovering more and more objects around other stars and didn’t know whether to call them planets or not. There appeared to be a need to define what a planet means, and that led to what some people consider Pluto’s demotion to a dwarf planet.
The International Astronomical Union decided that full-sized planets must orbit the sun, have a round shape, and have cleared their orbits of other objects. Pluto fulfills the first two criteria, but not the third.
It still goes around the sun, it’s round enough, it’s got moons, and behaves like a planet, but the idea is that Pluto did not form the same way as the rest of the planets. Pluto’s orbit is both eccentric and inclined more than the rest of the planets by about 17 degrees. That’s suggests something is different about this object.
This debate about whether to call it a planet or not is silly, because it doesn’t matter to Pluto what you call it. It is an interesting object, goes around the sun, and shows geology and an atmosphere.
There’s a tendency to define objects based on what they are now, but nothing is constant in the universe. There are some issues with the nomenclature, and a definition today may not apply to the same object tomorrow.
