Why do we use average force while solving momentum problems? How is net force related to the momentum of the object?

Physics
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago
8 0
So net force is all forces acting on an object and that would make sense with momentum. Say you’re pushing on a box at 100 N but your friend pushes back with 20 N. You wouldn’t plug in 100 N and find the momentum because there is something pushing back on it and it wouldn’t give you the true momentum

A block slides forward 4.73 m while being pulled back by a 39.7 N force at 142° from the direction of motion. How much work does
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

work done by the force, W = -147.97 J

Given:

displacement of the box, s = 4.73 m

angle between force and displacement, \theta = 142^{\circ}

Force, F = 39.7 N

Solution:

Work done by the force can be expressed as the dot product of Force, F and displacement 's' is given by:

W = Fscos\theta

W = 39.7\times 4.73\times cos142^{\circ}

W = -147.97 J

where negative sign indicates that work is done on the block

Is the force of gravity stronger on a piece of crumpled paper or a normal piece of flat paper?
GaryK [48]
Yes, because a crumpled piece of paper has more center mass, allowing it to fall faster.

A speed boat travels from the dock to the first buoy a distance of 20 meters in 18 seconds it began the trip at a speed of 0 m/s
Lunna [17]

Answer:

1.11 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the boat is an example of accelerated motion, since the velocity is not constant. However, we don't need to find the acceleration, because we are only interested in the average velocity of the boat, which is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the total distance covered and t the time taken. In this problem, the boat covered a distance of d = 20 m and it takes t = 18 s, therefore the average velocity is

v=\frac{20 m}{18 s}=1.11 m/s

A cyclist is riding a bicycle at a speed of 22 mph on a horizontal road. The distance between the axles is 42 in., and the mass
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The shortest distance is  S = 24.86 ft

Explanation:

The free body diagram of this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the bicycle is v_b = 22\ mph = 22 * \frac{5280}{3600}   =  32.26 ft/s

     The distance between the axial is  d = 42 \ in

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is m_c = 26 \ in  behind the front axle

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is m_h = 40 \ in above the ground

   For the bicycle not to be thrown over the

     Momentum about the back wheel must be zero so

                \sum _B = 0

=>             mg (26) = ma(40)

=>             a = \frac{26}{40} g

Here  g = 32.2 ft/s^2

     So     a =  \frac{26}{40} (32.2)

             a =  20.93 ft/s^2

Apply the equation of motion to this motion we have

       v^2 = u^2 + 2as

 Where  u = 32.26 ft /s

             and v = 0 since the bicycle is coming to a stop

        v^2 = (32.26)^2 - 2(20.93) S

=>      S = 24.86 ft
