1350kgm/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Sam = 75kg

Velocity = 18m/s

Unknown:

Momentum = ?

Solution:

Momentum is the property of a moving body with respect to its mass and velocity.

Objects in motion have momentum. The more the velocity of a body, the more its momentum. Also, the more the mass of an object, the more momentum it possess.

Momentum is a function of the mass and the velocity of a body

   Momentum = mass x velocity

   Momentum = 75 x 18 = 1350kgm/s

Answer:

Momentum of sam as he leaves the jump is 1,350kgm

Explanation:

Momentum of a body is defined as the product of mass and velocity of a body.

Given mass of Sam = 75kg

Velocity = 18m/s

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 75kg × 18m/s

Momentum = 1,350kgm/s

8. What current flows through a 1.15 kW electric fire at a potential difference of
Vilka [71]

Answer:

I = 5[amp]

Explanation:

Electrical power is defined as the product of voltage by current.

P=V*I

where:

P = power = 1150 [W]

V = voltage = 230 [V]

I = current [amp]

Now replacing:

1150=230*I\\I=1150/230\\I=5[amp]

A 15 [amp] fuse must be used. Always the fuse must be larger than the operating current, to protect the equipment from very high currents. above 15 [amp]

is it possible for the gravitational force between two 50-kg objects to be less than the gravitational force between a 59-kg obj
Eva8 [605]

OF COURSE !  

The gravitational force between two objects doesn't ONLY depend on the product of their masses.  It also depends on the distance between them.

I'm not even going to work out the numbers for my example.  I'm just going to state without proof that at the top of the 2nd frame, the gravitational force between you and your bowling ball is greater than the gravitational force between you and the whole darn Andromeda galaxy !  My reasoning is based on the fact that your bowling ball is maybe 1 foot from your center of mass, whereas the Andromeda galaxy is more like 2.5 million light years from it.  That right there is going to give your bowling ball a big advantage when it comes to gravity !

True or False If the mass of the object increases, then the potential energy of the object decreases.​
Tamiku [17]
False- the potential energy is force*distance and force is mass*acceleration so if there’s more mass, there’s more force, so there’s more potential energy
Hope that helps :)

For sprinters running at 12 m/s around a curved track of radius 26 m, how much greater (as a percentage) is the average total fo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

114.86%

Explanation:

In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:

Fy = mg

When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:

Fx = mv²/r

The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²

F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)

F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)

Compared to just the vertical force:

F / Fy

m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg

√((v²/r)² + g²) / g

Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:

√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8

1.1486

The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.76 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the
alex41 [277]

Answer:

(a)v_1 = a_1t_1 = 1.76 t_1

(b) It won't hit

(c) 110 m

Explanation:

(a) the car velocity is the initial velocity (at rest so 0) plus product of acceleration and time t1

v_1 = v_0 + a_1t_1 = 0 +1.76t_1 = 1.76t_1

(b) The velocity of the car before the driver begins braking is

v_1 = 1.76*20 = 35.2m/s

The driver brakes hard and come to rest for t2 = 5s. This means the deceleration of the driver during braking process is

a_2 = \frac{\Delta v_2}{\Delta t_2} = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{t_2} = \frac{0 - 35.2}{5} = -7.04 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to calculate how far the car has travel since braking to stop

s_2 = v_1t_2 + a_2t_2^2/2

s_2 = 35.2*5 - 7.04*5^2/2 = 88 m

Also the distance from start to where the driver starts braking is

s_1 = a_1t_1^2/2 = 1.76*20^2/2 = 352

So the total distance from rest to stop is 352 + 88 = 440 m < 550 m so the car won't hit the limb

(c) The distance from the limb to where the car stops is 550 - 440 = 110 m
