How can light change matter

In a football game, a receiver is standing still, having just caught a pass. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a velocit

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

$m_{receiver}=115Kg*3.1/(1.6)-115Kg=107.8Kg$

Explanation:

The football players collide in a completely inelastic collision, in other words they have the same velocity after the collision, this velocity has a magnitude V=1.6m/s.

We need to use the conservation of momentum Law, the total momentum is the same before and after the collision, at the initial point the receiver does not have any speed

$m_{tackler}*v_{tackler}=(m_{tackler}+m_{receiver})V$ (1)

We solve in order to find the receiver mass:

$m_{receiver}={m_{tackler}*v_{tackler}/V}-m_{tackler}$

$m_{receiver}=115Kg*3.1/(1.6)-115Kg=107.8Kg$

If the angular velocity of the pully is -8.4rad/s at a given time, and its anglar acceleration is -2.8rad/s2, what is the angula

snow_lady [41]

Here we know that

$\omega_i = - 8.4 rad/s$

$\alpha = - 2.8 rad/s^2$

$t = 1.5 s$

now from kinematics we have

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

now from above all values we have

$\omega_f = (-8.4 rad/s) + (-2.8 rad/s^2)(1.5)$

$\omega_f = -8.4 + (-4.2)$

$\omega_f = -12.6 rad/s$

so final angular speed is -12.6 rad/s

What is the difference between kinetic and gravitacional energy?

kondaur [170]

Answer:

In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion

In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge. The reference location, where the potential is zero, is by convention infinitely far away from any mass, resulting in a negative potential at any finite distance.

In mathematics, the gravitational potential is also known as the Newtonian potential and is fundamental in the study of potential theory. It may also be used for solving the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields generated by uniformly charged or polarized ellipsoidal bodies

The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = $\frac{g}{\omega^2R}$
