While sitting motionless in a 5 kg friction free wagon, an 80kg clown catches a 15 kg cannonball traveling horizontally at 20 m/

s. After the cannonball is caught, at what speed do the clown, wagon, and ball move?

4 0
Momentum is conserved
15*20= initial momentum =300
total mass after being caught = 100 
momentum=mass*velocity
thus dividing the momentum by total mass we get the velocity of 3 m/s

Consider a motor that exerts a constant torque of 25.0 nâ‹…m to a horizontal platform whose moment of inertia is 50.0 kgâ‹…m2. A
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

W = 1884J

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The original question was:

<em>Consider a motor that exerts a constant torque of 25.0 N.m to a horizontal platform whose moment of inertia is 50.0kg.m^2 . Assume that the platform is initially at rest and the torque is applied for 12.0rotations . Neglect friction. </em>

<em> How much work W does the motor do on the platform during this process?  Enter your answer in joules to four significant figures.</em>

The amount of work done by the motor is given by:

W=\Delta K

W= 1/2*I*\omega f^2-1/2*I*\omega o^2

Where I = 50kg.m^2 and ωo = rad/s. We need to calculate ωf.

By using kinematics:

\omega f^2=\omega o^2+2*\alpha*\theta

But we don't have the acceleration yet. So, we have to calculate it by making a sum of torque:

\tau=I*\alpha

\alpha=\tau/I     =>     \alpha = 0.5rad/s^2

Now we can calculate the final velocity:

\omega f = 8.68rad/s

Finally, we calculate the total work:

W= 1/2*I*\omega f^2 = 1883.56J

Since the question asked to "<em>Enter your answer in joules to four significant figures.</em>":

W = 1884J

PLEASE HELPPPP ❗️❗️❗️
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 main forces at work here, gravity, normal and friction. The gravity pulls the car straight down and is what keeps the car on the ground. Normal force is straight up from the points where the car is touching, so since the wheels are the only parts of the car touching the street, this is where all the normal force is. Friction force opposes any and all motion, the car wants to slide down the hill and would slide down the hill if there was no friction, so the friction force is in the opposite direction of the cars intended motion.
