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

The decomposition of ammonia to the elements is a first-order reaction with a half-life of 200 s at a certain temperature. How l
Feliz [49]

Based on the half-life of the reaction, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.

<h3>What is the half-life of a substance?</h3>

The half-life of a substance is the time taken for half the amount of atoms present in that substance to decay.

The half-life of the reaction is 200 seconds.

After, one half-life, pressure reduces to 0.0500 atm

After, two half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.0250 atm

After, three half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.01250 atm

After, four half-lives, pressure reduces to 0.00625 atm

Time taken = 4 * 200 = 800 seconds

Therefore, time taken for the partial pressure of ammonia to decrease from 0.100 atm to 0.00625 atm is 800 seconds.

A 1.50 kg rock is thrown up into the air from ground level, reaches a maximum height of 7.00 m, then returns to the ground. Calc
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

17.565 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

I = mv..................... Equation 1

But we can calculate the value of v  using the equation of motion under gravity.

v² =  u²+2gs............. Equation 2

Where u = initial velocity, s = maximum heigth, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: u = 0 m/s (at the maximum heigth), s = 7.0 m.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

v² = 0²+ 2×7×9.8

v² = 137.2

v = √137.2

v = 11.71 m/s.

Also given: m = 1.50 kg

substitute these values into equation 1

Therefore,

I = 1.5×11.71

I = 17.565 kgm/s
