Answer:

The total displacement of a dog is 100 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

A dog that runs north 80 meters to chase a ball, returns to its master, and then runs south 20 meters.

We can define the displacement as the distance between the initial position and final position of the object.

The displacement is defined as,

D = P_{f}-P_{i}

Put the value into the formula

D = 20-(-80)

D = 100\ m

Hence, The total displacement of a dog is 100 m.

80+20 is 100
you would not count the part where the dog runs back to its master
so its 100 meters

A bowling ball of 35.2kg, generates 218 kg.m/s units of momentum. What is the velocity of the bowling ball?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

6.18\:\mathrm{m/s}

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by p=mv.

Plugging in values, we have:

218=35.2v,\\v=\frac{218}{35.2}=\fbox{$6.18\:\mathrm{m/s}$}.

During an in-class demonstration of momentum change and impulse, Mr. H asks Jerome (102 kg) and Michael (98 kg) to sit on a larg
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

2.6 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Jerome (Mj) = 102 kg

mass of Micheal (Mm) = 98 kg

mass of each cart (Mc) = 14 kg

recoil speed of Jerone and Micheal after push (Vi) = ?

mass of Suzie (Ms) = 44 kg

Suzie's speed after push (Vs) = 9.6 m/s

From the conservation of momentum, initial momentum = final momentum

Since they all are initially at rest the initial momentum is 0 and hence the final momentum is also 0.

Therefore for the final momentum we have

(Mj + Mm + Mc) Vi - (Ms + Mc) Vs = 0  ( the negative sign is because they move in opposite directions)

((102 + 98 + 14) x Vi ) - ((44 + 14) x 9.6) = 0

(214 x Vi) - (58 x 9.6) = 0

214 Vi = 556.8

Vi = 556.8 / 214 = 2.6 m/s

Question 3
zalisa [80]

Answer:

V2 = 37.5 L

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume, V1 = 25 L

Initial temperature, T1 = 20°C

Final temperature,T2 = 30°C

To find the final volume V2, we would use Charles' law;

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

\frac {V}{T} = K

\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}  = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Making V2 as the subject formula, we have;

V_{2}= \frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} * T_{2}

V_{2}= \frac{25}{20} * 30

V_{2}= 1.25 * 30

V2 = 37.5 L

A traveler pulls on a suitcase strap at an angle 36° above the horizontal. If 908 J of work are done by the strap while moving t
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

T = 74.8 N

Explanation:

Given:

- The angle with the horizontal θ = 36°

- The tension in the strap T

- The amount of work done W = 908 J

- The distance travelled by the suitcase s = 15 m

Find:

what is the tension in the strap?

Solution:

- From definition we have that the work-done by a force F is given by the dot product of the force vector and the displacement vector as expressed below:

                                        W = F.s

-  The scalar form of the work done includes the component of force F along the direction of displacement as follows:

                                       W = F*s*cos(θ)

- Now we can calculate the Tension force T from the given data as follows:

                                       W = T*s*cos(θ)

                                       T = W / (s*cos(θ))

                                       T = 908 / (15*cos(36))

                                      T = 74.8 N

A transport plane takes off from a level landing field with two gliders in tow, one behind the other. The mass of each glider is
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The total resistance is 5000 N. So the net force left for acceleration is 7 000 N (12 000 - 5 000).

7000 N applied to 2x700 kg gives a maximum acceleration of

a = F/m = 7000/1400kg = 5 m/s^2

At 5m/s^2, it will take 8 s to reach 40 m/s. In 8 second the distance covered will be

d = 1/2 at^2 = 1/2 x 5 x 8^2 = 160 m

Because each glider has the same drag and inertia, the tension in the rope between the gliders will be exactly half of the tension between plane and the two gliders:

12 000/2 = 6 000N.
