In a science fiction novel two enemies, Bonzo and Ender, are fighting in outer spce. From stationary positions, they push agains

t each other. Bonzo flies off with a velocity of +2.2 m/s, while Ender recoils with a velocity of -2.6 m/s. Determine the ratio mBonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies.

Answer:

\frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

Explanation:

m_B = Mass of Bonzo

m_E = Mass of Ender

u_B = Initial Velocity of Bonzo = 2.2 m/s

u_E = Initial Velocity of Ender = -2.6 m/s

From conservation of linear momentum

m_Bu_B=m_Eu_E\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=\frac{u_E}{u_B}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=\frac{2.6}{2.2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

\therefore \frac{m_B}{m_E}=1.18

So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds

A student throws a 130 g snowball at 6.5 m/s at the side of the schoolhouse, where it hits and sticks. What is the magnitude of
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

4.7 N

Explanation:

130 g = 0.13 kg

The momentum of the snowball when it's thrown at the wall is

p = mv = 0.13*6.5 = 0.845 kgm/s

Which is also the impulse. From here we can calculate the magnitude of the average force F knowing the duration of the collision is 0.18 s

p = F\Delta t

F*0.18 = 0.845

F = 0.845 / 0.18 = 4.7 N

In a Little League baseball game, the 145 g ball enters the strike zone with a speed of 17.0 m/s . The batter hits the ball, and
VMariaS [17]

Hi there!

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Where:

m = mass of object (kg)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

Begin by converting grams to kilograms:

1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg

Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.

I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns

The magnitude is the absolute value, so:

|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns
