Which of the following statements is TRUE about impulse? (Consider the Impulse-Momentum Theorem: F▲t = m ▲v )

The statement “Impulse is a vector quantity” is true about Impulse.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

The object’s action by applied force in a particular time interval, there happens changing in momentum called impulse. It is denoted by a symbol ‘J’ or ‘imp’ and expressed in a unit ‘Ns’. As impulse depends on the acted force, when a collision arises from front, behind or side, the force’s direction would be differed.

                   \text {Impulse }=\text {Force } \times \text {time}=\vec{F} \Delta t

So, from this option A is false as impulse is not a force but changing momentum. The unit is not Newton, it is Newton second (Ns). The force direction differs (impulse direction) for each cases of collision, so option D also false. Hence, option B seems to be correct. Vector quantity deals with both direction and magnitude and important in motion study.

A 2290 kg car traveling at 10.5 m/s collides with a 2780 kg car that is initially at rest at the stoplight. The cars stick toget
avanturin [10]

Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg

initial speed = 10.5 m/s

mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg

distance moved = 2.80 m

coefficient of friction = ?

conservation of energy

m u = (M + m) V

2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V

V = 4.74 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8

a = 4.02 m/s²

now using equation

a = μ g

4.02 = μ x 9.8

μ = 0.41

MRU(movimiento rectilineo uniforme) un movil viaja en linea recta con una velocidad media de 12metros /segundos durante 9segundo
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a) 141.6m

b) 8.4m/s

Explanation:

a) to find the total displacement you use the following formula for each trajectory. Next you sum the results:

x_1=v_1t_1=(12m/s)(9s)=108m\\\\x_2=v_2t_2=(4.8m/s)(7s)=33.6m\\\\x_T=x_1+x_2=108m+33.6m=141.6m

hence, the total distance is 141.6m

b) the mean velocity of the total trajectory is given by:

v_m=\frac{v_1+v_2}{2}=\frac{12m/s+4.8m/s}{2}=8.4\frac{m}{s}

hence, the mean velocity is 8.4 m/s

A 32-n force acts on a small mass in the positive x-direction. a 26-n force also acts on it in the negative x-direction. what is
motikmotik

Equilibrium force is the force that will keep the small mass in place, hence no movement must be made. So we know that 32 N of force is acted towards the positive direction so +32 N. Which is counteracted by 26 N force so:

32 N – 26 N = 6 N (positive)

Since positive 6 is left, therefore this must be acted by an equilibrant negative 6 N.

 

Answer:

<span>- 6 N </span>

A sand mover at a quarry lifts 2,000 kg of sand per minute a vertical distance of 12 m. The sand is initially at rest and is dis
Marianna [84]

Answer:

<h2>E. 3.95kW</h2>

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate of workdone.

Power = Workdone/time taken

Given Workdone = Force * distance

Power = Force * distance/time taken

Power = mgd/t (F = mg)

m = mass of the sand in kg

g = acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

d = vertical distance covered in metres

t = time taken in seconds

Given m = 2000kg, d = 12m, t = 1min = 60secs, g = 9.8m/s²

Power = 2000*9.8*12/60

Power = 3920Watts

Minimum rate of power that must be supplied to this machine is 3920Watts or 3.92kW
