A 0.10 kg baseball travelling at 40 m s−1 hits straight back to the pitcher at 55 m s−1. The contact time is 0.01 seconds. What
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

1.5 kgms⁻¹

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as "<em>mass in motion</em>."  

The amount of momentum that an object has is dependent upon two factors

  • mass of the moving object  
  • speed of motiom 

when there is a change in the velocity , it creates a change in momentum also

when we consider that we can mathematically show this,In terms of an equation,

Change in momentum    (ΔΡ) = m(Δv)

where (Δv) - change in velocity

<em>(Δv) = final velocity - initial velocity</em>

Change in momentum (ΔΡ) = m(Δv)

                                             = 0.1×([55-40])

                                             = 1.5 kgms⁻¹

A crane lifts a 1,750 kg mass using a steel cable whose mass per unit length is 0.88 kg/m. What is the speed of transverse waves
Sauron [17]

Answer:

139.6m/s

Explanation:

Calculate the tension first, T=m*g

mass(m): 1750kg, gravity(g): 9.8m/s^2

T= 1750*9.8

 =17150N

Then calculate the wave speed using the equation v = √ (T/μ)

v= √(17150N)/(0.88kg/m)

 =139.6m/s

A 3.0 kg block is pushed by a 14 N force. If µ = 0.6, will the block move?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The block will not move.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the frictional force. This can be obtained as follow:

Coefficient of friction (µ) = 0.6

Mass of block (m) = 3 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Normal reaction (R) = mg = 3 × 10 = 30 N

Frictional force (Fբ) =?

Fբ = µR

Fբ = 0.6 × 30

Fբ = 18 N

From the calculations made above, the frictional force of the block is 18 N. Since the frictional force (i.e 18 N) is bigger than the force applied (i.e 14 N), the block will not move.
