<span>Given:

Mass of cart: 15kg</span>

Aisle length = 14m

Angle = 17° below the horizontal

Force fp = 12 N

 

So, the solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

<span><span>1)    </span>W(by applied force) = F(applied) x s x cosθ <span>
=>W(a) = 12 x 14 x cos17* = 160.66 J </span></span>
<span><span>
2)    </span>By F(net) = F(applied) - F(friction) <span>
=>As v = constant => a = 0 => F(net) = 0 
=>F(applied) = F(friction) 
<span>=>W(friction) = -F(friction) x s
=>W(friction) = -F(applied) x s 
=>W(f) = -12 x 14 x cos17* = -160.56 J </span></span></span>
<span><span>
3)    </span>0, as the displacement is perpendicular to Force </span>

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

Explanation:

This exercise the system is formed by platform, man and bricks; For this system, when the bricks are released, the forces are internal, so the kinetic moment is conserved.

Let's write the moment two moments

initial instant. Before releasing bricks

       L₀ = I₁ w₁

final moment. After releasing the bricks

       L_{f} = I₂W₂

       L₀ = L_{f}

       I₁ w₁ = I₂ w₂

       w₂ = I₁ / I₂ w₁

let's reduce the data to the SI system

     w₁ = 1.2 rev / s (2π rad / 1rev) = 7.54 rad / s

 

 let's calculate

       w₂ = 6.0/2.0   7.54

       w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

Two gliders are on a frictionless, level air track. Both gliders are free to move. Initially, glider A moves to the right and gl
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momentums of each glider. The momentum of the system is conserved if no external force is acting on the objects (as in this case). That means that the initial momentum of the system is equal to the final momentum of the system.

The momentum of each glider is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p = momentum.

m = mass of the glider.

v = velocity.

The momentum of the system for glider A and B can be calculated as follows:

initial momentum = mA · vA + mB · vB

Where:

mA and vA = mass and velocity of glider A

mB and vB = mass and velocity of glider B

Initially, glider B is at rest so that vB = 0. Then, the initial momentum of the system is:

initial momentum = mA · vA

The final momentum of the system is calculated as follows:

final momentum = mA · vA´ + mB · vB´

Where vA´ and vB´ are the final velocities of glider A and B respectively.

We know that mB = 4mA and that vA´ is negative. The the final momentum will be:

final momentum = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

Since initial momentum = final momentum:

mA · vA = -mA · vA´ + 4mA · vB´

mA · vA + mA · vA´ = 4mA · vB´

<u>vA + vA´ = 4 vB´</u>

<u />

The change in momentum of glider A (ΔpA) is calculated as follows:

ΔpA = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpA =  -mA · vA´ - mA · vA = -mA (vA + vA´) = -4mA · vB´

The change in momentum of glider B (ΔpB) is calculated as follows:

ΔpB = final momentum - initial momentum

ΔpB = 4mA · vB´ - 0 = 4mA · vB´

Then, the change in momentum of both objects is the same but in opposite direction. That´s why the momentum is conserved.

If a town was 90 miles away and you travel at 45 mph how long would it take to get there
notka56 [123]

Answer:

t = 2 hours

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance of the town, d = 90 miles

Speed, v = 45 mph

We need to find the time to get there. The speed of an object is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

Where

t is time

t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{90}{45}\\\\t=2\ h

So, the required time is 2 hours.
