A fancart of mass 0.8 kg initially has a velocity of < 0.8, 0, 0 > m/s. Then the fan is turned on, and the air exerts a co

nstant force of < −0.3, 0, 0 > N on the cart for 1.5 seconds. What is the change in momentum of the fancart over this 1.5 second interval?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the change of the momentum. At the same time we will use Newton's second law to obtain the acceleration of the object and the kinematic equations of linear motion.

Newton's second law is defined as,

F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}

Here,

F = Force

m = Mass

a = Acceleration

Our values are given as,

v_i = 0.8 m/s

v_f = ?

t = 1.5s

F = -0.3N

According to this values we have that the acceleration is,

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{-0.3}{0.8}

a = -0.375m/s^2

Now applying the concepts of kinematic equations we have that the final velocity is,

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 0.8m/s + (-0.375m/s^2)(1.5s)

v_f = 0.3375m/s

By definition we know that momentum is the product between mass and velocity, so the change in momentum would be given by

\Delta p = p_f - p_i

\Delta p = mv_f-mv_i

\Delta p = m(v_f-v_i)

\Delta p = (0.8)(0.3375-0.9)

\Delta p = - 0.45kg \cdot m/s

Therefore the change in momentum of the fancart is -0.45kg m/s

How many neutrons does element x have if it’s atomic number is 40 and it’s mass number is 82?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The atomic number gives you the number of protons element x has. Since the mass of protons and neutrons are almost similar(around 1 amu), the mass number can be thought of as the sum of protons and neutrons. so if element x whose atomic number is 40 has a mass number of 82, then we know that 42 of those must be neutrons.

The volume of water in the Pacific Ocean is about 7.0 × 10 8 km 3 . The density of seawater is about 1030 kg/m3. (a) Determine t
Novay_Z [31]

To solve the problem it is necessary to consider the concepts related to Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy.

Potential Energy because of a planet would be given by the equation,

PE=\frac{GMm}{r}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Ocean

M = Mass of Moon

r = Radius

From the data given we can calculate the mass of the ocean water through the relationship of density and volume, then,

m = \rho V

m = (1030Kg/m^3)(7*10^8m^3)

m = 7.210*10^{11}Kg

It is necessary to define the two radii, when the ocean is far from the moon and when it is facing.

When it is far away, it will be the total diameter from the center of the earth to the center of the moon.

r_1 = 3.84*10^8 + 6.4*10^6 = 3.904*10^8m

When it's near, it will be the distance from the center of the earth to the center of the moon minus the radius,

r_2 = 3.84*10^8-6.4*10^6 - 3.776*10^8m

PART A) Potential energy when the ocean is at its furthest point to the moon,

PE_1 = \frac{GMm}{r_1}

PE_1 = \frac{(6.61*10^{-11})*(7.21*10^{11})*(7.35*10^{22})}{3.904*10^8}

PE_1 = 9.05*10^{15}J

PART B) Potential energy when the ocean is at its closest point to the moon

PE_2 = \frac{GMm}{r_2}

PE_2 = \frac{(6.61*10^{-11})*(7.21*10^{11})*(7.35*10^{22})}{3.776*10^8}

PE_2 = 9.361*10^{15}J

PART C) The maximum speed. This can be calculated through the conservation of energy, where,

\Delta KE = \Delta PE

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = PE_2-PE_1

v=\sqrt{2(PE_2-PE_1)/m}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2*(9.361*10^{15}-9.05*10^{15})}{7.210*10^{11}}}

v = 29.4m/s
