What is the momentum of an object that is moving in a straight line at a speed of 10 m/s and has a mass of 10 kilograms?

1 answer:

8 0

The momentum of an object is given by the product between its mass and its velocity:
$p=mv$
where m is the mass and v the velocity.

For the object in our problem, m=10 kg and v=10 m/s, therefore its momentum is
$p=mv=(10 kg)(10 m/s)=100 kg m/s$
So, the correct answer is B).

What is a tool that can be used to measure the size of a force

Travka [436]

The answer to this question would be: a spring scale.

The spring scale that you use to determine your body weight is actually a device that measures your body gravitational force. The force itself influenced by your body weight, that is why it can determine your body weight.
More weight means more force, more force will shrink the spring more.

QUESTION 3

Alisiya [41]

The force of frictions is opposed to relative motion.

The acceleration of the crate is approximately 2.937 m/s².

Reason:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the wood, m = 100 kg

The force which can move the wood, F = 588 N

Wood on wood static friction, $\mu_s$ = 0.5

Wood on wood kinetic friction, $\mu_k$ = 0.3

Solution;

The force of friction, $F_f$ , acting when the crate is moving is given as

follows;

$F_f$ = m × g × $\mu_k$

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore, we have;

$F_f$ = 100 × 9.81 × 0.3 = 294.3

The force of friction, $F_f$ = 294.3 N

The force with which the crate moves, F = 588 - 294.3 = 293.7

The force with which the crate moves, F = 293.7 N

Force = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

$a = \dfrac{F}{m}$

Therefore;

$a = \dfrac{293.7 \ N}{100 \ kg} = 2.937$

The acceleration of the crate, a ≈ 2.937 m/s².

To wait until the oncoming vehicle passes before completing a left turn is known as:

Reika [66]

Answer:

Risk rejection

Explanation:

There are several factors that contribute to the degree of driving risks and they include but not limited to the ability of the driver and the condition of a vehicle. Other factors are condition of the environment and the condition of the highway. When driving, a driver may wait until an oncoming vehicle passes before making a complete left turn as a risk rejection strategy. Left turns are more dangerous when making them because drivers tend to accelerate on to a left turn. The wider radius of a left turn is know to led to higher speeds and greater pedestrian exposure. A driver is advised to have more mental and physical efforts when making a left turn.
