Answer:

a. 12,600 N

b. 1290 kg

Explanation:

a. Impulse = change in momentum

F Δt = m Δv

F (0.192 s) = (59 kg) (0 m/s − 41 m/s)

F = -12,600 N

b. F = mg

12,600 N = m (9.8 m/s²)

m = 1290 kg (or 2,830 lbs)

Answer:

Lifetime = 4.928 x 10^-32 s

Explanation:

(1 / v2 – 1 / c2) x2 = T2

T2 = (1/ 297900000 – 1 / 90000000000000000) 0.0000013225

T2 = (3.357 x 10^-9 x 1.11 x 10^-17) 1.3225 x 10^-6

T2 = (3.726 x 10^-26) 1.3225 x 10^-6 = 4.928 x 10^-32 s

About once every 30 minutes, a geyser known as Old Faceful projects water 11.0 m straight up into the air. Use g = 9.80 m/s^2, a

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 30 minutes

Distance = 11.0 m

Pressure = 101.3 kPa

Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

We need to calculate the speed of the water

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2gs$

Where, u = speed of water

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Put the value into the formula

$0=u^2-2\times9.8\times11.0$

$u=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times11.0}$

$u=14.68\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

A man at point A directs his rowboat due north toward point B, straight across a river of width 100 m. The river current is due

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1.35208 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of the boat = 0.75 m/s

Distance between the shores = 100 m

Time = Distance / Speed

$Time=\frac{100}{0.75}=133.33\ s$

Time taken by the boat to get across is 133.33 seconds

Point C is 150 m from B

Speed = Distance / Time

$Speed=\frac{150}{\frac{100}{0.75}}=1.125\ m/s$

Velocity of the water is 1.125 m/s

From Pythagoras theorem

$c=\sqrt{0.75^2+1.125^2}\\\Rightarrow c=1.35208\ m/s$

So, the man's velocity relative to the shore is 1.35208 m/s
