All the answers are solved and explained below.
Explanation:
Note: This questions lacks the initial and most necessary data to answer these following questions. I have found a related question. I will be considering that question to carry out the answers.
Question: A car with a mass of 1000 kg is at rest at a spotlight. when the light turns green, it is pushed by a net force of 2000 N for 10 s. (This was the information missing in this question).
Data Given:
m = 1000 kg
F = 2000N
t = 10s
Q1 Solution:
Acceleration = a = ?
F = ma
a = F/m
a = 2000/ 1000
a = 2
Q2: Solution:
Change in velocity = Δv = ?
acceleration = change in velocity / time
a = Δv/t
Δv = axt
Δv = 2 x 10
Δv = 20 m/s
Q3: Solution:
Impulse = I = ?
Impulse = Force x time
I = 2000 x 10
I = 20000 Ns
Q4: Solution:
Change in Momentum = Δp = ?
Δp = mΔv
Δp = 1000 x 20
Δp = 20000 Kgm/s
Q5: Solution:
Final velocity of the car at the end of 10 seconds = vf = ?
Δp = m x Δv
Δp = m x (vf-vi)
Δp = 1000 x (vf - 0 )
20000 = 1000 x vf
vf = 20000/1000
vf = 20 m/s
Q6: Solution:
Change in momentum the car experiences as it continues at this velocity?
Δp = ?
Δp = mΔv
Δp = m x (0)
Δp = 0
Q7: Solution:
Impulse = Change in momentum
Impulse = Δp
Implulse = 0
Q8: Solution:
Change in momentum = Δp = mΔv
Δp = m(vf-vi)
Δp = 1000 x (0-20)
Δp = -20000 kgm/s
Q9: Solution:
Impulse = Δp
Impulse = -20000 Ns
Q10: Solution:
Impulse = ?
Impulse = F x t
F = impulse/t
F = -20000/4s
F = -5000 N
Q11: Solution:
F = ma
a = ?
a = F/m
a = -5000/1000
a = -5
