A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?

Physics
1 answer:
12345 [234]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.

The volume occupied by a sample of gas is 480 mL when the pressure is 115 kPa.What pressure must be applied to the gas to make i
balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>84.9 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law to find the final pressure

That's

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we are finding the final pressure

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

From the question

P1 = 115 kPa

V1 = 480 mL

V2 = 650 ml

So we have

P_2 =  \frac{115000 \times 480}{650}  = \frac{55200000}{650}  \\  = 84923.076923...

We have the final answer as

<h3>84.9 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you

If racing alcohol has a mass density of 790kg/m3, what mass will a 1250-litre tank hold?
Marina86 [1]
Density = Mass per unit Volume
that is,
D = m / V

Now,
We've been provided with,

Density = 790 kg/m³
Volume = 1250 litres = 1.250 m³

Now,
density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\ 790 = \frac{m}{1.250} \\ 790 \times 1.250 = m \\ m = 790 \times 1.250 \\ m = 790 \times \frac{1250}{1000} \\ m = 790 \times \frac{5}{4} \\ m = 197.5 \times 5 \\ m = \frac{1975}{10} \times 5 \\ m = \frac{1975}{2} = 987.5 \: kg

987.5 kg of mass will a 1250 litres tank will hold.

Solve 3* +5-220t = 0​
slega [8]

Answer:

t = 27.5

Explanation:

3 + 5 -220t = 0

Well to solve for t we need to combine like terms and seperate t.

So 3+5= 8

8 - 220t = 0

We do +220 to both sides

8 = 220t

And now we divide 220 by 8 which is 27.5

Hence, t = 27.5

A film of soapy water on top of a plastic cutting board has a thickness of 255 nm. What wavelength and color is most strongly re
Alona [7]

Answer:

the reflected wavelength is lano = 4.55 10⁻⁷ m which corresponds to the blue color

Explanation:

This is a case of reflection interference, we must be careful

* There is a 180º phase change when light passes from the air to the soap film (n = 1,339), but there is no phase change when passing from the pomp to the plastic (n = 1.3)

* the wavelength within the film is modulated by the refractive index

     λₙ =  λ₀ / n

if we consider these relationships the condition for constructive interference is

     2 t = (m + ½)  λₙ

     2t = (m + ½)  λ₀ / n

      λ₀ = 2t n / (m + ½)

we substitute the values

      λ₀= 2 255 10⁻⁹ 1,339 / (m + ½)

      λ₀  = 6.829 10⁻⁷ (m + ½)

let's calculate the wavelength for various interference orders

m = 0

       λ₀ = 6.829 10⁻⁷/ ( 0 +   ½ )

       λ₀ = 13.6 10⁻⁷

       it is not visible

m = 1

      λ₀ = 6,829 10⁻⁷/ (1 + ½)

       λ₀ = 4.55 10⁻⁷

      color blue

m = 2

      λ₀ = 6.829 10⁻⁷ / (2 + ½)

      λ₀ = 2,7 10⁻⁷

   it is not visible

therefore the reflected wavelength is lano = 4.55 10⁻⁷ m which corresponds to the blue color
