At one particular moment, a 15.0 kg toboggan is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 4.40 m/s. After 7.50 s have elapsed,

the toboggan stops. Use a momentum approach to find the magnitude of the average friction force (in N) acting on the toboggan while it was moving.

Answer:

f = 8.8\,N

Explanation:

The moment equation of the toboggan is:

m_{t}\cdot v_{o} - f\cdot \Delta t = 0

The average friction force is:

f=\frac{m_{t}\cdot v_{o}}{\Delta t}

f = \frac{(15.0\,kg)\cdot (4.40\,\frac{m}{s} )}{7.50\,s}

f = 8.8\,N

A ball is dropped off the roof of a tall building. If the ball reaches the ground in 8 seconds, how tall is the building, in met
Ghella [55]

Let <em>b</em> be the height of the building, and <em>y</em> the height of the ball at time <em>t</em>, given by

<em>y</em> = <em>b</em> - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point <em>y</em> = 0, so that

0 = <em>b</em> - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 313.6 m

When a tiny stream forms during rainfall carrying away some soil and plants and leaving a scar.
ozzi

Answer:  Streams and rivers are integral parts of the landscape that carry water and sediment from high elevations to downstream lakes, estuaries, and oceans. The land area draining to a stream or river is defined as its watershed. When rain falls in a watershed, it either runs off the land surface, infiltrates into the soil, or evaporates.
