A professional boxer hits his opponent with a 1025 N horizontal blow that lasts 0.150 s. The opponent's total body mass is 116 k

g and the blow strikes him near his center of mass and while he is motionless in midair. Determine the following.
(a) impulse the boxer imparts to his opponent by this blow
kg · m/s
(b) the opponent's final velocity after the blow
m/s
(c) Calculate the recoil velocity of the opponent's 5.0-kg head if hit in this manner, assuming the head does not initially transfer significant momentum to the boxer's body.

Answer:

The impulse is  I  =  153.8 \ N \cdot s

The opponents velocity is  v=  1.33 m/s

The opponents head recoils velocity  v_r = 30.8 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The force of the blow is  F=  1025 \ N

    The duration of the blow is  t =  0.150

      The mass of the opponent is  m_o  =  116 \ kg

       The mass of the opponents head is  m_h  = 5 \ kg

The impulse the boxer imparts is mathematically represented as

         I  =  F *  t

substituting values

         I  =  1025 * 0.150

          I  =  153.8 \ N \cdot s

The impulse can also be mathematically evaluated as

         I  =  m_o * v

substituting values

          153.8  =  116 * v

          v=  \frac{153.8}{116}

          v=  1.33 m/s

The recoil velocity is mathematically represented as  

              v_r =  \frac{I}{m_h}

substituting values

                v_r =  \frac{153.8}{5}

                v_r = 30.8 \ m/s

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

1.65\times {-3} \text { s}

Explanation:

Current is the rate of flow of charge.

I=\dfrac{Q}{t}

t = \dfrac{Q}{I}

t = \dfrac{30.0}{18.2\times10^3} =1.65\times {0-3} = 1.65\times {-3} \text { s}

Which is the result of mitosis and cytokinesis?
Leno4ka [110]
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of the cell is divided in half, and the cell membrane grows to enclose each cell, forming two separate cells as a result. The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before.

A body travels at an initial speed of 2.5 m/s. Given a constant acceleration of 0.2 m/s 2 what is the speed of the body at time
garri49 [273]

Answer:

<u>We are given:</u>

u = 2.5 m/s

a = 0.2 m/s/s

t = 25 seconds

v = v m/s

<u>Solving for 'v':</u>

From the first equation of motion:

v = u + at

Replacing the values

v = 2.5 + (0.2)(25)

v = 2.5 + 5

v = 7.5 m/s

How much current must flow through a wire to make a magnetic field as strong as Earth's field (5.00 x 10^-5 T) 1.00 m away from
torisob [31]

Answer:

250 A

Explanation:

B = 5 x 10^-5 T, r = 1 m

Let current be i.

the magnetic field due to a straight current carrying conductor is given by

B = μ0 / 4π x 2i / r

5 x 10^-5 = 10^-7 x 2 x i / 1

i = 250 A
