Answer

= 100 miles per hour.

Explanation

Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.

Velocity = Distance /time taken

= 500/5

= 100 mile per hour.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

d. 0.3 N

Explanation:

Force: This is defined as the product of mass of a body and its acceleration.

The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically Force can be represented as,

F = ma .................. Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

also

a = (v-u)/t............... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: v = 0.60 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( From rest), t= 0.16 s.

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0.60-0)/0.16

a = 3.75 m/s²

Also given: m = 80 g = 0.08 kg.

Substitute into equation 1,

F = 0.08(3.75)

F = 0.3 N.

Hence he average force = 0.3 N

The right option is d. 0.3 N

Briefly answer the following questions. a) A clock is mounted on the wall. As you look at it, what is the direction of the angul

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The direction of angular velocity vector of second hand will be along the line going into the plane of dial perpendicular to it.

b ) If the angular acceleration of a rigid body is zero, the angular velocity will remain constant.

c ) If another planet the same size as Earth were put into orbit around the Sun along with Earth the moment of inertia of the system will increase because the mass of the system increases. Moment of inertia depends upon mass and its distribution around the axis.

d ) Increasing the number of blades on a propeller increases the moment of inertia , because both mass and mass distribution around axis of rotation increases.

e ) It is not possible that a body has the same moment of inertia for all possible axes because a body can not remain symmetrical about all axes possible. Sphere has same moment of inertia about all axes passing through its centre.

f ) To maximize the moment of inertia of a flywheel while minimizing its weight, the shape and distribution of mass should be such that maximum mass of the body may be situated at far end of the body from axis of rotation . So flywheel must have thick outer boundaries and this should be

attached with axis with the help of thin rods .

g ) When the body is rotating at the same place , its translational kinetic energy is zero but its rotational energy can be increased

at the same place.

Explain the forces that keep a rock balanced on a tiny pedestal. Please help me with this!

SashulF [63]

Normal force for the rock because that makes an object stable at its position.
static friction because micro-welts hold its particle on its position so it doesn't change in position by a potential energy. Gravity makes it stay on the ground because its force attraction between an object and the earth.
Hope this helps

A paintball’s mass is 0.0032kg. A typical paintball strikes a target moving at 85.3 m/s.

vekshin1

Answer:

A) If the paintball stops completely the magnitude of the change in the paintball’s momentum is $p=0.273kg*m/s$

B) If the paintball bounces off its target and afterward moves in the opposite direction with the same speed, the change in the paintball’s momentum is $p=0.546kg*m/s$

C) A paintball bouncing off your skin in the opposite direction with the same speed hurts more than a paintball exploding upon your skin because of the strength exerted is twice than if it explodes.

Explanation:

A) We use the formula of momentum $p=mv$ , so we have $p=0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.273kg*m/s$

B) We use the same formula above, then due we have a change of direction at the same speed, therefore the change in the momentum is the double so

$p=2*0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.546kg*m/s$ .

C) The average strength of the force an object exerts during impact is determined by the amount the object’s momentum changes. therefore

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$ , as we don't have any data about the impact time but we know momentum is twice, time does no matter and strength is twice too.

Calculate the electric potential energy in a capacitor that stores 4.0 10-10 C of charge at 250.0 V

Arada [10]

Q = C.v
v = Q/C
v = 4 × 10^(-10)/250
= 4 × 10^(-10)/2.5 × 10^2
= 1.6 × 10^(-12) volt
