A child in a boat throws a 5.90-kg package out horizontally with a speed of 10.0 m/s. Calculate the velocity of the boat immedia

tely after, assuming it was initially at rest. The mass of the child is 28.0 kg and that of the boat is 35.0 kg . (Take the package's direction of motion as positive.)

Answer:

0.94 m/s opposite the direction of the package

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before the throw = Total momentum after the throw.

Note: Assuming the child, the boat and the package, where initially at the same velocity

U(m+m'+m'') = V(m+m')+v''(m'')................. Equation 1

Note: since the boat was initially at rest, U = 0 m/s

0 = V(m+m') + v'(m'')

-V(m+m') = v''(m'')....................... Equation 2

Where,

V = Velocity of the boat immediately after the throw, m = mass of the child, m' = mass of the boat, m'' = mass of the package, v'' = velocity of the package after the throw.

make V the subject of the equation

V = -v''(m'')/(m+m').................. Equation 3

Given: v'' = 10 m/s, m'' = 5.9 kg, m = 28 kg, m' = 35 kg

Substitute into equation 3

V = -10(5.9)/(28+35)

V = -59/63

V = -0.94 m/s.

The Negative sign shows that the velocity of the both immediately after the throw is in opposite direction to the velocity of the package

A cell membrane consists of an inner and outer wall separated by a distance of approximately 10nm10nm. Assume that the walls act
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

the correct answue are  B, A, C, C, B

Explanation:

1) The electric field is requested, let's approximate the membrane by a parallel plate with surface charge density

         E = \frac{\sigma }{2 \epsilon_o }

         E = \frac{ 10^{-5}}{2 \ 8.85 \ 10^{-12}}

         E = 5.65 10⁵ N / C

the correct answer is B

2) A calcium ion has two positive charges, so the force applied by each side of the membrane (plate)

         F = q E

         F = 2  1.6 10⁻¹⁹  5.65 10⁵

         F = 1.8 10⁻¹³ N

the total force is the sum of the force of each membrane and the two forces go to the same side

         F = total = 2 F

         F_total = 3.6 10⁻¹³ N

the correct answer is A

3) the field and the electric potential are related

          ΔV = - E s

          ΔV = - 5.65 10⁵  10 10⁻⁹

          ΔV = - 5.65 10⁻³ V

          the correct answer is C

4) In the exercise they indicate that the outer wall has a positive charge, therefore, as they indicate that we approximate the system to a capacitor, the inner wall must be negatively charged.

The electric field goes from the positive to the negative charge, which is why it goes from the outer wall to the inner wall

the correct answer is C

5) For this part we use conservation of energy

starting point. On the inside wall, brown

            Em₀ = U = qV

final point. On the outside

             Em_f = K

energy is conserved

           Em₀ = Em_f

           q V = K

            K = 3 10⁻¹⁵  5.65 10⁻³

            K = 1.7 10⁻¹⁷ J

the correct answer is B

How does speed relate to motion energy?
Murljashka [212]

the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

A(n) 19000 kg freight car is rolling along a track at 1.5 m/s. Calculate the time needed for a force of 2600 N to stop the car.
garik1379 [7]

Answer: 10.96secs

Explanation:

According to newton's second law

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

F = m(v-u)/t

Cross multiplying we have

Ft = m(v-u)

t = m(v-u)/F

Given F = 2600N m = 19,000kg v = 1.5m/s u = 0m/s

Substituting this values in the formula for the time we have

t = 19000(1.5-0)/2600

t = 28,500/2600

t= 10.96secs
