What is Newton's first law

1 answer:

8 0

Newton’s first law is motion. For example, an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Projectiles that strike objects are good examples of inelastic collisions. A 0.1 kg nail driven by a gas powered nail driver col

Ratling [72]

In an inelastic collision, only momentum is conserved, while energy is not conserved.

1) Velocity of the nail and the block after the collision
This can be found by using the total momentum after the collisions:
$p_f=(m+M)v_f=4.8 kg m/s$
where
m=0.1 kg is the mass of the nail
M=10 kg is the mass of the block of wood
Rearranging the formula, we find $v_f$ , the velocity of the nail and the block after the collision:
$v_f= \frac{p_f}{m+M}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg+10 kg}= 0.48 m/s$

2) The velocity of the nail before the collision can be found by using the conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision is given only by the nail (since the block is at rest), and it must be equal to the total momentum after the collision:
$p_i = mv_i = p_f$
Rearranging the formula, we can find $v_i$ , the velocity of the nail before the collision:
$v_i = \frac{p_f}{m}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg}=48 m/s$

If you wanted to know how big a tiger is, which measurements would you use?

valina [46]

Answer:

meter, kilogram

Explanation:

Here we want to know how big the tiger is. This means that we want to measure its size and possibly its mass.

The size is actually a measure of the length of the tiger, and length is measured in meters.

The mass of an object, instead, is a measure of the "amount of matter" in the substance, and it is measured in kilograms.

The other options are wrong because:

- The second is the unit of time

- The candela is the unit of the luminous intensity

- The mole is the unit of the amount of substance, and it is used for gases

- The ampere is the unit of the current

Se golpea una pelota de golf de manera que su velocidad inicial forma un ángulo de 45° con la horizontal. La pelota alcanza el s

nordsb [41]

Answer:

42m/s

6.06s

Explanation:

To find the initial velocity and time in which the ball is fling over the ground you use the following formulas:

$x_{max}=\frac{v_o^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\\x_{max}=vt_{max}$

θ: angle = 45°

vo: initial velocity

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

x_max: max distance = 180 m

t_max: max time

by replacing the values of the parameters and do vo the subject of the first formula you obtain:

$v_o=\sqrt{\frac{gx_{max}}{sin(2\theta)}}\\\\v_o=\sqrt{\frac{(9.8m/s^2)(180m)}{sin(2(45\°))}}=42\frac{m}{s}$

with this value of vo you calculate the max time:

$t_{max}=\frac{x_{max}}{v}=\frac{x_{max}}{v_ocos(45\°)}\\\\t_{max}=\frac{180m}{(42m/s)cos(45\°)}=6.06s$

hence, the initial velocity of the ball is 42m/s and the time in which the ball is in the air is 6.06s

TRANSLATION:

Para encontrar la velocidad inicial y el tiempo en el que la pelota está volando sobre el suelo, use las siguientes fórmulas:

θ: ángulo = 45 °

vo: velocidad inicial

g: constante gravitacional = 9.8m / s ^ 2

x_max: distancia máxima = 180 m

t_max: tiempo máximo

reemplazando los valores de los parámetros y haciendo el tema de la primera fórmula que obtiene:

con este valor de vo usted calcula el tiempo máximo:

por lo tanto, la velocidad inicial de la pelota es de 42 m / sy el tiempo en que la pelota está en el aire es de 6.06 s
