Answer:
The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.
So the equipment needed would be:
Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.
Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.
Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
As these are distances created by moving in a straight line, using a trigonometric analysis can solve the missing single straight-line displacement. Looking at the 48m and 12m movements as legs of a triangle, obtaining the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem will yield us the correct answer.
This is shown below:
c^2 = 48^2 + 12^2
c = sqrt(2304 + 144)
c = sqrt(2448)
c = 49.48 m
To obtain the angle at which Anthony walks 49.48, we obtain the arc tangent of (12/48). This is shown below:
arc tan (12/48) =14.04 degrees.
Therefore, Anthony could have walked 49.48 m towards the S 14.04 W direction.
Image formed by a plane mirror is always virtual which means that the light rays do not actually come from the image but upright and these of the same shape and size are the object it is<span> reflecting.</span>
Answer:
C
Explanation:
b is 55 miles per hour south or 55mph[South]
the important part to understand is that velocity is a vector meaning it also has to have a direction, in this case south. That is why a (2m/s) is not a velocity, however 2m/s is a speed.
Answer:
128379.69 J
Explanation:
Potential energy: This can be defined as the energy of a body to to position in the gravitational field. The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).
The expression for potential energy is given as,
ΔEp = mgΔH
ΔEp = mg(H₂-H₁)..................... Equation 1
Where ΔEp =change in Potential Energy, m = mass of the man, g = acceleration due to gravity, H₂ = Height of the 37th floor, H₁ = height of the first floor
Given:m = 91.2 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², H₁ = 3.99 m, H₂ = 3.99×37 = 147.63 m.
Substitute into equation 1
ΔEp = 91.2(9.8)(147.63-3.99)
ΔEp = 893.76(143.64)
ΔEp = 128379.69 J.
