A net force of -1,000 Newtons is delivered to the object over a time of .02 seconds. Calculate the new velocity of the object.

1 answer:

4 0

The change in velocity (v₂ - v₁) is

 (-20) / (the object's mass).

Call it a crazy hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that there was more
to the question before the part you copied, that mentioned the object's
mass, and its velocity before this force came along.

Use what you know about mass and how you use it to calculate force in the following situation. If each washer has a mass of 4. 9

mina [271]

Considering the change of units and the definition of weight, the mass of two washers would be 0.0098 kg and if 4 washers are attached to the string, then the applied force on the car will be 0.196 N.

Mass of two washers

If each washer has a mass of 4.9 g, then the mass of two washers will be calculated simply by multiplying the mass of 1 washer by the amount you have of them, in this case 2:

4.9 g×2= 9.8 g

Being 1 kg = 1000 g, you apply the following rule of three to make the change of units: if 1000 g equals 1 kg, 9.8 g equals how many kilograms?

$mass=\frac{9.8 gramsx1 kg}{1000g}$

Solving:

mass= 0.0098 kg

Finally, the mass of two washers would be 0.0098 kg.

Applied force

On the other side, mass is the amount of matter that a body contains and weight is the action exerted by the force of gravity on the body.

The mass of an object will always be the same, no matter where it is located. Instead, the weight of the object will vary according to the force of gravity acting on it.

Weight is calculated as the product of the object's mass and the value of the gravitational acceleration:

W= m×g

In this case, you know:

m= 4.9 g×4= 19.6 g= 0.0196 kg → the mass of 4 washers in kilograms
g= 10 m/s²

Replacing:

W= 0.0196 kg× 10 m/s²

Solving:

W= 0.196 N

Finally, if 4 washers are attached to the string, then the applied force on the car will be 0.196 N.

A machine with a 5-N input force and a 25-N output force has a mechanical advantage of?

jolli1 [7]

So we want to know the mechanical advantage of a machine that has 5 N input force and 25 N out force. Mechanical advantage Ma is the measure of force amplification of some machine. We calculate it by taking the ratio of the output force Fo over the input force Fi. Ma=Fo/Fi=(25 N)/(5 N)=5. So Mechanical advantage for our machine is Ma=5 and the correct answer is the second one.

A new planet is discovered that has twice the Earth's mass and twice the Earth's radius. On the surface of this new planet a per

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

Radius of new planet,R' = 2R

Mass of the earth, M' = 2 M

R and M is the Radius and Mass of the earth.

Weight of the person on earth = 500 N

Weight of the person in the new planet = ?

We know acceleration due to gravity is calculated by using formula

$g = \dfrac{GM}{R^2}$

now, acceleration due to gravity on the new planet

$g' = \dfrac{GM'}{R'^2}$

$g' = \dfrac{G(2M)}{(2R)^2}$

$g' =\dfrac{1}{2} \dfrac{GM}{R^2}$

$g' =\dfrac{g}{2}$

here acceleration due to gravity is half in new planet, so weight will also be half on the new planet.

Weight on the new plane is equal to $\dfrac{500}{2}$ = 250 N

correct answer is option B

Which of the following represents the wavelength of a wave?

dlinn [17]

Answer: D. the distance between the highest points of consecutive waves

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is defined as the distance traveled by a periodic perturbation that propagates through a medium in a given time interval. It is usually represented by $\lambda$ and can be calculated if the frequency of the wave is known, since there is an inverse relationship between both.

In the specific case of a periodic sine wave (which is the way in which a wave is usually represented graphically) the wavelength can be determined as the distance between two consecutive maxima of the disturbance.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
