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

State the law of conservation of linear momentum using Newton's third law of deduce this ​
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Derivation of Conservation of Momentum

Applying Newton's third law, these two impulsive forces are equal and opposite i.e. is equal to the change in momentum of the first object. is equal to the change in momentum of the second object. This relation suggests that momentum is conserved during the collision.

Q.1- Find the distance travelled by a particle moving in a straight line with uniform acceleration, in the 10th unit of time.
Korolek [52]

Answer:

If the acceleration is constant, the movements equations are:

a(t) = A.

for the velocity we can integrate over time:

v(t) = A*t + v0

where v0 is a constant of integration (the initial velocity), for the distance traveled between t = 0 units and t = 10 units, we can solve the integral:

\int\limits^{10}_0 {A*t + v0} \, dt = ((A/2)10^2 + v0*10) = (A*50 + v0*10)

Where to obtain the actual distance you can replace the constant acceleration A and the initial velocity v0.

A notebook sitting on a desk has 19 j of potential energy. What is the total mechanical energy of the notebook?
Alex17521 [72]

The total mechanical energy of the notebook is <u><em>19J</em></u>.

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy.  It has no kinetic energy, because it's not moving.  So its potential energy is all the  mechanical energy it has.
