A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

a velocity of 4.0 m/s [W]. Ignore the substantial friction real objects in water experience.
A) What is the momentum of the girl as she is diving?
B) What is the momentum of raft as the girl is diving?
C) What is the final speed of the raft just after the girl dives?

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

With what force will a car hit a tree if the car has a mass of 3,415 kg and it is accelerating at
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

F= 17,075\ N

Explanation:

When the car is under an accelerating force and hits a tree, the instant force received by the tree is the same force that is accelerating the car.

The accelerating force can be calculated using Newton's second law:

F=m\cdot a

Where m is the mass of the car and a is the acceleration.

F=3,415\ kg\cdot 5\ m/s^2

\boxed{F= 17,075\ N}

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 4 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 60 mm?
jok3333 [9.3K]
V = [4/3]π r^3 => [dV / dr ] = 4π r^2

[dV/dt] = [dV/dr] * [dr/dt]

[dV/dt] = [4π r^2] * [ dr/ dt]

r = 60 mm, [dr / dt] = 4 mm/s

[dV / dt ] = [4π(60mm)^2] * 4mm/s = 180,955.7 mm/s

What is the acceleration of a ball traveling horizontally with an initial velocity of 20 meters/second and, 2.0 seconds later, a
Nutka1998 [239]

The acceleration of the ball is 5 m/s^2. This can be calculated using a formula that relates the change in velocity, acceleration, and time. This formula is:

Vf = Vi + at

where:
Vf = final velocity
Vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time

Substituting the values gives:

30 = 20 + a(2)
<span>a = 5 m/s^2 --> Final Answer</span>
