¿Es esta una pregunta verdadera o falsa? Por cierto, no hay mucha gente que hable español en esta aplicación, así que buena suerte.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Momentum is used to measure the quantity of motion in an object. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.
Momentum = mass * velocity
The principle of conservation of momentum states that momentum cannot be created or destroyed but can be transferred. Therefore the momentum before and after an action is equal.
Initial momentum = Final momentum
Let m be the mass of the diver, M be the mass of the raft, u be the initial velocity of the diver, U be the initial velocity of the raft, v be the final velocity of the diver and V be the final velocity of the raft.
m = 71 kg, M = 500 kg, v = 6 m/s
Initial both the raft and diver are at rest, hence u and U is zero, hence:
mu + MU = mv + MV
71(0) + 500(0) = 71(6) + 500(V)
0 = 426 + 500(V)
500(V) = -426
V = -426/500
V = -0.852 m/s
There are two forces at play:
- The gravitational force acting downward due to the mass of the bucket and the water that it contains.
- The upward force that your hand exerts on the bucket.
If the magnitude of the force your hand exerts on the bucket equals the magnitude of the gravitational force, the bucket is in static equilibrium. That means the bucket is not moving and the forces acting on it balance each other out, making the net force 0.
Having 0 net force means the bucket doesn't undergo any acceleration, or change in motion.
