How to find impulse from mass and velocity?

1 answer:

7 0

The momentum change =mass*velocity change. But sincevelocity change is not known another strategy must be used to find the momentum change. The strategy involves first finding the impulse (F*t = 1.0 N*s). Since impulse = momentum change, the answer is 1.0 N*s.

Person-1

Initial velocity=u=0m/s
Final velocity=v=10m/s
Time=10s=t

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{10-0}{10}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{10}{10}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=1m/s^2$

Person-2

initial velocity=0m/s=u
Final velocity=v=0.25m/s
Time=t=2s

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{0.25-0}{2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{0.25}{2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=0.125m/s^2$

Person-1 is accelerating faster.

State a situation in which force is applied on a body, but no work is done

LenaWriter [7]

If you press on your arm force is applied work done is if it moves.
One answer could be if I was to press my hand on a table.
Have a great day!

Find the following answer based on the image.

saul85 [17]

We are given:

Mass of Neptune = 1.03 * 10²⁶ kg

Distance from the center of Neptune (r) = 2.27 * 10⁷

now, computing the value of the acceleration due to gravity (g)

Finding g:

We know the formula:

g = G(mass of planet) / (r)²

g = [6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 1.03*10²⁶] / (2.27*10⁷) [since G is 6.67*10⁻¹¹]

g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵) / (5.15 * 10¹⁴)

which can be rewritten as:

g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵ * 10⁻¹⁴) / 5.15

g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵⁻¹⁴) / 5.15

g = (6.87/5.15) * 10

g = 1.34 * 10

g = 13.4 m/s² (approx)

The average period of pendulum clock is found to be 1.2s at sea level. The period of the same pendulum on a mountain top is foun

Kipish [7]

Answer:

g' = 10.12m/s^2

Explanation:

In order to calculate the acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain, you first calculate the length of the pendulum, by using the information about the period at the sea level.

You use the following formula:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$ (1)

l: length of the pendulum = ?

g: acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.79m/s^2

T: period of the pendulum at sea level = 1.2s

You solve for l in the equation (1):

$l=\frac{gT^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=\frac{(9.79m/s^2)(1.2s)^2}{4\pi^2}=0.35m$

Next, you use the information about the length of the pendulum and the period at the top of the mountain, to calculate the acceleration due to gravity in such a place:

$T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g'}}\\\\g'=\frac{4\pi^2l}{T'^2}$

g': acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain

T': new period of the pendulum

$g'=\frac{4\pi^2(0.35m)}{(1.18s)^2}=10.12\frac{m}{s^2}$

The acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain is 10.12m/s^2
