At one particular moment, a 19.0 kg toboggan is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 3.60 m/s. After 6.75 s have elapsed,

the toboggan stops. Use a momentum approach to find the magnitude of the average friction force (in N) acting on the toboggan while it was moving.

Answer:

Friction force acting on the toboggan is  10.13 N.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass and its velocity,i.e,

p = m × v

Thus, initial momentum will be :-

p₁ = 19.0 × 3.60

    = 68.4 kg m/s

Final momentum will be ;_

p₂ = 19.0 × 0

   = 0 kg m/s

Now, Force is defined as the rate of change of linear momentum,i.e,

F = dp/dt

Thus, F = \frac{p_{2} - p_{1}  }{t}

            = \frac{0 - 68.4}{6.75}

            = - 10.13 N

Negative sign just signifies that force is acting in a direction opposite to the direction of motion.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

= 236N

Explanation:

tension T = mg + ma

Given that,

m = 20kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a = 2.0 m/s²

T = m(g + a)

T = 20( 9.8 + 2.0)

  = 20(11.8)

  = 236N

a container of water is knocked off a 10.0 meter high ledge with a horizontal velocity of 1.00 meters/second. calculate the time
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

S=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s
