. The student and the skateboard have a combined mass of mc = 97 kg and the book leaves his hand at a velocity of vb = 4.61 m/s at an angle of 28° with respect to the horizontal.
(a)Write an expression for the magnitude of the velocity of the student,vs, after throwing the book

(b)Calculate the magnitude of the velocity of the student,vs, in meters per second?

(c)What is the magnitude of the momentum,pe, which was transferred from the skateboard to the the Earth during the time the book isbeing thrown (in kilogram meters per second)?

Answer:

a) u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}       &        m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

b) v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}

c) p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the book, m_b=1.35\ kg

combined mass of the student and the skateboard, m_c=97\ kg

initial velocity of the book, v_b=4.61\ m.s^{-1}

angle of projection of the book from the horizontal, \theta=28^{\circ}

a)

velocity of the student before throwing the book:

Since the student is initially at rest and no net force acts on the student so it remains in rest according to the Newton's first law of motion.

u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}

where:

u_c= initial velocity of the student

velocity of the student after throwing the book:

Since the student applies a force on the book while throwing it and the student standing on the skate will an elastic collision like situation on throwing the book.

m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

where:

v_c= final velcotiy of the student after throwing the book

b)

m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

97\times v_c=1.35\times 4.61\cos28

v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Since there is no movement of the student in the vertical direction, so the total momentum transfer to the earth will be equal to the momentum of the book in vertical direction.

p_e=m_b.v_b\sin\theta

p_e=1.35\times 4.61\times \sin28^{\circ}

p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}

Which of the following is an example of work being done on an object?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

d. All of these

Explanation:

work is said to be done when a force is applied to an object through a certain distance. the SI unit of workdone is joules or newton per meter

mathematically

workdone = force x distance.

from the answers,  work is being done because there is force applied in a certain distance.

  • from wagon is used to carry vegetables from a garden.
  • pulley is used to get water from a well.
  • hammer is used to remove a nail from a wall.

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees

A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net force in 0.30 second. What
AnnZ [28]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

<span>                                       =      </span>- 10 newtons .

<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>

An object accelerating at 16 m/s/s doubles its mass and triples its net force acting on it. What will the new acceleration be? (
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

24 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial acceleration of the object, a = 16 m/s²

Let 'm' represent the initial mass of the object

The initial force acting on the object, F = m × a

∴ F = 16 × m = 16·m

When the mass is doubled, we have;

The new mass of the object, m₂ = 2 × m = 2·m

When the net force acting on the object triples, we have;

The new net force acting on the object, F₂ = 3 × F = 3 × 16·m = 48·m

From F = m × a, we have;

a = F/m

∴ The new acceleration of the object, a₂ = F₂/m₂

From which, by plugging in the values, we have;

a₂ = 48·m/(2·m) = 24

The new acceleration of the object, a₂ = 24 m/s².
