Answer:
F= 600 N
Explanation:
Given that
Initial velocity ,u= 0 m/s
Final velocity ,v= 30 m/s
mass ,m = 0.5 kg
time ,t= 0.025 s
The change in the linear momentum is given as
ΔP= m (v - u)
ΔP= 0.5 ( 30 - 0 ) kg.m/s
ΔP= 15 kg.m/s
We know that from second law of Newtons


Now by putting the values

F= 600 N
Answer:
1.40 m/s^2
Explanation:
Given data
Velocity= 17.4 m/s
time= 12.4 seconds
We want to find the acceleration of the rock
We know that
acceleration = velocity/time
Substitute
acceleration= 17.4/12.4
acceleration=1.40 m/s^2
Hence the acceleration is 1.40 m/s^2
Answer:
a) 0.036 J b) 0.036J c) 0.036 d) 1.9m/s e) 0.18 m
Explanation:
Mass of the dart = 0.02kg, the spring was compressed to 6cm
Work needed to compress the spring = 1/2*k*x ^2 where k is the force constant of the spring in N/m, x is the distance it was compressed in m
Work needed to compress the spring = 0.5 * 20* 0.06^2 since 6cm = 6 / 100 = 0.06 m
Work needed to compress the spring = 0.036J
b) the total energy stored in the spring = the work done to compress the spring = 0.036J
c) kinetic energy of the dart as it leaves the the spring = elastic potential energy stored in the spring = the work done in compressing the = 0.036J using the law of conservation of energy; energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another.
d) 1/2mv^2 = 0.036
mv^2 = 0.036*2
v^2 = 0.036*2 / 0.02 = 3.6
v = √3.6 = 1.897 approx 1.9m/s
e) kinetic energy of the dart = work done against gravity to get the body to height h
Work done against gravity = potential energy conserved at height = -mgh g is negative because the motion is upward while gravity acts downward
0.036 = 0.02 * 9.81 * h
0.036 / ( 0.02*9.81) = h
h = 0.18 m
