A particle having a speed of 0.87c has a momentum of 10-16 kg·m/s. what is its mass?

Physics

The momentum p of a moving particle is the product between its mass, m, and tis velocity, v:
p=mv
In our problem, we know p=10^{-16}~Kg \cdot m/s and v=0.87c=0.87\cdot 3\cdot10^8~m/s=2.61\cdot 10^8~m/s, and using the relationship mentioned above, we can find the mass m of the particle:
m= \frac{p}{v} =3.8\cdot10^{-25}~Kg

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .

A factory worker pushes a crate of mass 31.0 kg a distance of 4.35 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizon
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a. 79.1 N

b. 344 J

c. 344 J

d. 0 J

e. 0 J

Explanation:

a. Since the crate has a constant velocity, its net force must be 0 according to Newton's 1st law. The push force F_p by the worker must be equal to the friction force F_f on the crate, which is the product of friction coefficient μ and normal force N:

Let g = 9.81 m/s2

F_p = F_f = \mu N = \mu mg = 0.26 * 31 * 9.81 = 79.1 N

b. The work is done on the crate by this force is the product of its force F_p and the distance traveled s = 4.35

W_p = F_ps = 79.1*4.35 = 344 J

c. The work is done on the crate by friction force is also the product of friction force and the distance traveled s = 4.35

W_f = F_fs = -79.1*4.35 = -344 J

This work is negative because the friction vector is in the opposite direction with the distance vector

d. As both the normal force and gravity are perpendicular to the distance vector, the work done by those forces is 0. In other words, these forces do not make any work.

e. The total work done on the crate would be sum of the work done by the pushing force and the work done by friction

W_p + W_f = 344 - 344 = 0 J
