A 900-kg giraffe runs across a field at a rate of 50 km/hr. What is the magnitude of its momentum? 18 km/hr

2 answers:

7 0

The correct answer is the one with 45000 kg*km/hr.
the formula is p = m*v
900 *50/hr giving u 45000
I know this is the correct answer because i have already turned it in and got a 100%.

Answer: The magnitude of momentum will be equal to 12,500 kg m/s.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of the mass of the object and velocity of the object.

Mathematically,

$p=mv$

where, p = momentum

m = mass of the object ( in kg) = 900 kg

v = velocity of the object ( in m/s) = 50km/hr = $\left(\frac{50\times 1000}{3600}\right)m/s$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p=900kg\times \left(\frac{50\times 1000}{3600}\right)m/s=12500kg.m/s$

Hence, the magnitude of momentum will be equal to 12,500 kg m/s.

1. The current in a wire is 0.72A. Calculate the charge that passes through the wire in; a. 4 s b. 60 s c. 180 s d. 7 s e. 0.5 s

Vlad [161]

Let current be I, charge be Q and time be t.
Here we are provided with,
I = 0.72A
t = 4s / 60s / 180s / 7s / 0.5s
We know,
I = Q/t

Case I
---------
When, t = 4s
0.72 = Q/4
Q = 0.72 * 4 = 2.88C

Case II
----------
When, t = 60s
0.72 = Q/60
Q = 0.72 * 60 = 43.2C

Case III
-----------
When, t = 180s
0.72 = Q/180
Q = 0.72 * 180 = 129.6C

Case IV
-----------
When, t = 7s
0.72 = Q/7
Q = 0.72 * 7 = 5.04C

Case V
----------
When, t = 0.5s
0.72 = Q/0.5
Q = 0.72 * 0.5 = 0.36C

Why is the air drag on a baseball different than it would be for a smooth ball with no stitches? How does this apply to the desi

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The stitches and dimples around a baseball and a golf ball respectively, disturbs the air drag on the balls once they are in motion, allowing the them to travel more easily.

Explanation:

The stitches on a baseball disturbs the air drag on the ball when the ball is in motion, allowing the ball to travel more easily. Depending on the orientation of the ball in flight, the drag changes as the flow is disturbed by the stitches.

A smooth ball with no stitches or dimples has more air drag that opposes the motion.

A golf ball is smooth ball with dimples to create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the ball's surface. This allows the smoothly flowing air to follow the ball's surface a little farther around the back side of the ball, thereby decreasing the size of the wake, and allowing the ball to travel more easily.

An object is allowed to fall freely near the surface of a planet. The object has an acceleration due to gravity of 24 m/s2. How

Alborosie

Answer:

12 m

Explanation:

The object is in uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance covered can be found using the following suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For this problem,

$g=24 m/s^2$

and

u = 0, since we are considering the first second of motion

So, substituting t = 1 s, we find

$s=0+\frac{1}{2}(24)(1)^2=12 m$
