A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.35 kg to a friend standing in front of him

. 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}

Two cannonballs are dropped from a second-floor physics lab at height h above the ground. Ball B has four times the mass of ball
denpristay [2]

Answer:

1:4

Explanation:

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is:

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

If the mass is multiplied by 4, then, the kinetic energy must be increased by 4 as well. Since they will be travelling at the same speed when they are at the same point, the relation between KA and KB must be 1:4 or 1/4. Hope this helps!

NEED IT ASAP PLEASE 3 examples of how we use physics in our everyday life. Please explain throughly.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

  1. Alarm Clock. The buzzing sound of an alarm clock helps you wake up in the morning as per your schedule. The sound is something that you can’t see, but hear or experience.
  2. Cell Phones Cellphones have become like Oxygen gas in modern social life. Hardly, anyone would have been untouched by the effects of a cell phone. Whether conveying any urgent message or doing incessant gossips, cellphones are everywhere. But do you know how does a cell phone work? It works on the principle of electricity and the electromagnetic spectrum, undulating patterns of electricity and magnetism.
  3. Walking.Now, when you get ready for your office/school, whatever medium of commutation is, you certainly have to walk up to a certain distance. You can easily walk is just because of Physics. While you have a walk in a park or on a tar road, you have a good grip without slipping because of a sort of roughness or resistance between the soles of your shoes and the surface of the road.

Explanation:

physical is related to things perceived through the senses as opposed to the mind; tangible or concrete.

A test charge is placed at a distance of 2.5 × 10-2 meters from a charge of 6.4 × 10-5 coulombs. What is the electric field at t
Novosadov [1.4K]
Using the formula: E = kQ / d² where E is the electric field, Q is the test charge in coulomb, and d is the distance. 

E = kQ / d²

k = 9 x 10^9 N-m²/C²
Q = 6.4 x 10^-5 C
d = 2.5 x 10^-2 m

Substituting the given values to the equation, we have:
E = (9 x 10^9)(6.4 x 10^-5) / (2.5 x 10^-2) ²

Electric field at the test charge is 921600000 N/C
