A worker is pushing a crate of tools up a ramp into a truck. The crate has a mass of 120 kg and is accelerating at a rate of 1.0

5 m/s^2. Once he finishes pushing that crate up, he then takes another crate that is 3 times as massive and pushes it up the ramp with an acceleration of 0.71 m/s^2. What is the ratio of the force the worker used on the on the 120 kg crate and the more massive crate?

Answer:

B) 0.493

Explanation:

First Crate

Formula: F=ma

120kg*1.05m/s^2= 126N

Second Crate

Formula: F=ma

3*120kg=360kg

360kg*0.71m/s^2=255.6

Find the ratio by dividing

120kg/255.6kg=0.4929

Round 0.4929=0.493

Hope this Helps!!

The amplitude of the oscillation under SHM will be .5 m and the equation of

SHM can be written as follows

x = .5 sin(ωt + π/2) , here the initial phase is π/2 because when t = 0 , x = A ( amplitude) , ω is angular frequency.

x = .5 cosωt

given , when t = .2 s , x = .35 m

.35 = .5 cos ωt

ωt = .79

ω = .79 / .20

= 3.95 rad /s

period of oscillation

T = 2π / ω

= 2 x 3.14 / 3.95

= 1.6 s

b )

ω = $\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

ω² = k / m

k = ω² x m

= 3.95² x .6

= 9.36 N/s

c )

v = ω $\sqrt{(a^2-x^2)}$

At t = .2 , x = .35

v = 3.95 $\sqrt{.5^2-.35^2}$

= 3.95 x .357

= 1.41 m/ s

d )

Acceleration at x

a = ω² x

= 3.95 x .35

= 1.3825 m s⁻²

Answer:0.27*10^{6} (m)

Explanation:

with a wave we know that speed= wavelenght* frecuency so

wavelenght= 3*10^{7} / 109 = 0.27*10^{6} (m)

If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.0 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 50.5 m/s in the opposite directi

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of change in momentum of the ball is $97.5 m$ and impulse is also $97.5 m$

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of a pitched ball $v _{i} = 47$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Velocity of ball after impact $v_{f} = -50.5$ $\frac{m}{s}$

From the formula of change in momentum,

$\Delta P = m (v_{f} -v_{i} )$

Here mass is not given in question,

Mass of ball is $m$

Change in momentum is given by,

$\Delta P = m (-50.5 -47)$

$\Delta P = -97.5 m$

Magnitude of change in momentum is

$\Delta P = 97.5 m$

And impulse is given by

$J = \Delta P$

$J = -97.5 m$

So impulse and

Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum of the ball is $97.5 m$ and impulse is also $-97.5 m$

A 1000-kg car traveling at 70 m/s takes 3 m to stop under full braking. the same car under similar road conditions, traveling at

azamat

We assume $a=const$ (acceleration is constant. We apply the equation
$v^2=v0^2+2as$ where s is the distance to stop $v=0(m/s)$ . We find the acceleration from this equation
$a=-v0^2/(2s)=-70^2/(2*3) =-816.7 (m/s^2)
$
We know the acceleration, thus we find the distance necesssary to stop when initial speed is $v=140 (m/s)$
$s=-v0^2/(2a) =140^2/(2*816.7)=12 (m)$
