E = I R

That means

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

= (2.5 A) x (2.4 ohms)

= 6 volts .

A 430 g soccer ball lying on the ground is kicked and flies off at 25 m/s. If the duration of the impact was .01 s, what was the

maw [93]

<h2>The average force acting on the ball is 1075 N in the direction of travel of ball.</h2>

Explanation:

Force is given by rate of change of momentum.

Mass of soccer ball = 430 g = 0.43 kg

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Final velocity = 25 m/s

Change in momentum = 0.43 x 25 - 0.43 x 0

Change in momentum = 10.75 kg m/s

Time taken = 0.01 s

Rate of change of momentum = Change in momentum ÷ Time

Rate of change of momentum = 10.75 ÷ 0.01

Rate of change of momentum = 1075 N

Force = 1075 N

The average force acting on the ball is 1075 N in the direction of travel of ball.

A crate is pulled with a force of 165 N at an angle 30 ° northwest. What is the resultant horizontal force on the crate?

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Resultant horizontal force = 143 N

Explanation:

Since the a gle is 30° northwest, then it means the resultant force will be horizontal and as such;

Resultant horizontal force = 165 * cos 30

Resultant horizontal force = 142.89

Approximating to a whole number gives;

Resultant horizontal force = 143 N

A 124-kg balloon carrying a 22-kg basket is descending with a constant downward velocity of 20.0 m/ s. A I.O-kg stone is thrown

nadya68 [22]

(a) 296.6 m

The motion of the stone is the motion of a projectile, thrown with a horizontal speed of

$v_x = 15.0 m/s$

and with an initial vertical velocity of

$v_{y0} = -20.0 m/s$

where we have put a negative sign to indicate that the direction is downward.

The vertical position of the stone at time t is given by

$y(t) = h + v_{0y} t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ (1)

where

h is the initial height

g = -9.81 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The stone hits the ground after a time t = 6.00 s, so at this time the vertical position is zero:

y(6.00 s) = 0

Substituting into eq.(1), we can solve to find the initial height of the stone, h:

$0 = h + v_{0y} y + \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\h = -v_{0y} y - \frac{1}{2}gt^2=-(-20.0 m/s)(6.00 s) - \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(6.00 s)^2=296.6 m$

(b) 176.6 m

The balloon is moving downward with a constant vertical speed of

$v_y = -20 m/s$

So the vertical position of the balloon after a time t is

$y(t) = h + v_y t$

and substituting t = 6.0 s and h = 296.6 m, we find the height of the balloon when the rock hits the ground:

$y(t) = 296.6 m + (-20.0 m)(6.00 s)=176.6 m$

(c) 198.2 m

In order to find how far is the rock from the balloon when it hits the ground, we need to find the horizontal distance covered by the rock during the time of the fall.

The horizontal speed of the rock is

$v_x = 15.0 m/s$

So the horizontal distance travelled in t = 6.00 s is

$d_x = v_x t = (15.0 m/s)(6.00 s)=90 m$

Considering also that the vertical height of the balloon after t=6.00 s is

$d_y = 176.6 m$

The distance between the balloon and the rock can be found by using Pythagorean theorem:

$d=\sqrt{(90 m)^2+(176.6 m)^2}=198.2 m$

(di) 15.0 m/s, -58.8 m/s

For an observer at rest in the basket, the rock is moving horizontally with a velocity of

$v_x = 15.0 m/s$

Instead, the vertical velocity of the rock for an observer at rest in the basket is

$v_y (t) = gt$

Substituting time t=6.00 s, we find

$v_y = (-9.8 m/s)(6.00 s)=-58.8 m/s$

(dii) 15.0 m/s, -78.8 m/s

For an observer at rest on the ground, the rock is still moving horizontally with a velocity of

$v_x = 15.0 m/s$

Instead, the vertical velocity of the rock for an observer on the ground is now given by

$v_y (t) = v_{0y} + gt$

Substituting time t=6.00 s, we find

$v_y = (-20.0 m/s)+(-9.8 m/s)(6.00 s)=-78.8 m/s$
