When multiple forces are at work on an object, the net force is called a <em>resultant</em>, because it's a sum of vectors, and a sum of vectors is called their resultant.

Musya8 [376]

The dimension of force, F is ML/T².

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is a push o push agent which causes a change in the state of rest or motion of an object.

From a fundamental law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force exerted on the object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically; acceleration ∝ F/m

F = ma

dimension of Mass = M

dimension of acceleration = L/T²

dimension of force, F = ML/T²

In conclusion, the dimension of force is obtained from the dimensions of mass and acceleration.

A 9.800 mol sample of nitrogen gas is maintained in a 0.8166 L container at 301.8 K. What is the pressure in atm calculated usin
cluponka [151]

Answer:

P = 359.8 atm

Explanation:

The van der Waals' equation relates the properties of a gas, introducing constants "a" and "b" in order to consider gases as real gases. The equation is:

(P+a.\frac{n^{2} }{V^{2} } ).(V-nb)=n.R.T

where,

P: pressure

a: correction factor for intermolecular forces

V: volume

b: correction factor for molecules' volume

n: moles

R: ideal gas constant

T: absolute temperature

(P+\frac{1.390L^{2}atm}{mol^{2}}.\frac{(9.800mol)^{2}}{(0.8166L)^{2}}).(0.8166L-9.800mol.\frac{3.910 \times 10^{-2}L}{mol})=9.800mol \times \frac{0.08206atm.L}{mol.K} \times 301.8K\\(P + 200.2atm).(0.4334L) = 242.7atm.L\\P=359.8 atm

A novelty golf ball of mass m is launched with an initial velocity v0 = (25i + 13j) m/s and then follows a parabolic trajectory.
SVEN [57.7K]

Explanation:

(a)

The initial vertical velocity is 13 m/s.  At the maximum height, the vertical velocity is 0 m/s.

v = at + v₀

0 = (-9.8) t + 13

t ≈ 1.33 s

(b)

Immediately prior to the explosion, the ball is at the maximum height.  Here, the vertical velocity is 0 m/s, and the horizontal velocity is constant at 25 m/s.

v = √(vx² + vy²)

v = √(25² + 0²)

v = 25 m/s

(c)

Momentum is conserved before and after the explosion.

In the x direction:

m vx = ma vax + mb vbx

m (25) = (⅓ m) (0) + (⅔ m) (vbx)

25m = (⅔ m) (vbx)

25 = ⅔ vbx

vbx = 37.5 m/s

And in the y direction:

m vy = ma vay + mb vby

m (0) = (⅓ m) (0) + (⅔ m) (vby)

0 = (⅔ m) (vby)

vby = 0 m/s

Since the vertical velocity hasn't changed, and since Fragment B lands at the same height it was launched from, it will have a vertical velocity equal in magnitude and opposite in direction as its initial velocity.

vy = -13 m/s

And the horizontal velocity will stay constant.

vx = 37.5 m/s

The velocity vector is (37.5 i - 13 j) m/s.  The magnitude is:

v = √(vx² + vy²)

v = √(37.5² + (-13)²)

v ≈ 39.7 m/s
