Answer:
The mass of the child + skateboard is 50 kg
Explanation:
In this problem, we can apply Newton's second law:
F = ma
where
F is the net force on a system
m is the mass of the system
a is the acceleration of the system
In this problem, our system is the child + the skateboard. The net force on them is
F = 75 N
and their acceleration is
So we can re-arrange the equation above to find their combined mass:
Answer:
The horizontal velocity is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the pumpkin is
The distance of the the car from the building's base is
The height of the roof is
The height is mathematically represented as
Where g is the acceleration due to gravity which has a value of
substituting values
making the time taken the subject of the formula
The speed at which the pumpkin move horizontally can be represented mathematically as
substituting values
