<h3>Answer:</h3>

80 kgm/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of the Canoe is 32 kg
  • Speed of the Canoe is 2.5 m/s

We are required to calculate the momentum of the Canoe?

  • We need to know that momentum is the product of mass of an object and its speed.
  • Therefore;

Momentum = Mass × speed

Therefore;

Momentum = 32 kg × 2.5 m/s

                   = 80 Kgm/s

Thus, the momentum of the Canoe is 80 kgm/s.

A 2.13-kg object on a frictionless horizontal track is attached to the end of a horizontal spring whose force constant is 5.00 N
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

17.54N in -x direction.

Explanation:

Amplitude (A) = 3.54m

Force constant (k) = 5N/m

Mass (m) = 2.13kg

Angular frequency ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(5/2.13)

ω = 1.53 rad/s

The force acting on the object F(t) = ?

F(t) = -mAω²cos(ωt)

F(t) = -2.13 * 3.54 * (1.53)² * cos (1.53 * 3.50)

F(t) = -17.65 * cos (5.355)

F(t) = -17.57N

The force is 17.57 in -x direction

A police car is traveling north on a straight road at a constant 16.0 m/s. An SUV traveling north at 30.0 m/s passes the police
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

It will take 15.55s for the police car to pass the SUV

Explanation:

We first have to establish that both the police car and the SUV will travel the same distance in the same amount of time. The police car is moving at constant velocity and the SUV is experiencing a deceleration. Thus we will use two distance fromulas (for constant and accelerated motions) with the same variable for t and x:

1. x=x_{0}+vt

2. x=x_{0}+v_{0}t+\frac{at^{2}}{2}

Since both cars will travel the same distance x, we can equal both formulas and solve for t:

vt = v_{0}t+\frac{at^2}{2}\\\\   16\frac{m}{s}t =30\frac{m}{s}t-\frac{1.8\frac{m}{s^{2}} t^{2}}{2}

We simplify the fraction present and rearrange for our formula so that it equals 0:

0.9\frac{m}{s^{2}} t^{2}-14\frac{m}{s}t=0 \\\\ t(0.9\frac{m}{s^{2}}t-14\frac{m}{s})=0

In the very last step we factored a common factor t. There is two possible solutions to the equation at t=0 and:

0.9\frac{m}{s^{2}}t-14\frac{m}{s}=0 \\\\  0.9\frac{m}{s^{2}}t =14\frac{m}{s} \\\\ t =\frac{14\frac{m}{s}}{0.9\frac{m}{s^{2}}}=15.56s

What this means is that during the displacement of the police car and SUV, there will be two moments in time where they will be next to each other; at t=0 s (when the SUV passed the police car) and t=15.56s(when the police car catches up to the SUV)

Two particles are located on the x axis. particle 1 has a mass m and is at the origin. particle 2 has a mass 2m and is at x = +l
wlad13 [49]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>
The force on m is:</span>

<span>
GMm / x^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 1

The force on 2m is:</span>

<span>
GM(2m) / (L - x)^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 2

From (1), you’ll get M = 2mx^2 / L^2 and from (2) you get M = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

Since the Ms are the same, then 

2mx^2 / L^2 = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

2x^2 = (L - x)^2 

xsqrt2 = L - x 

x(1 + sqrt2) = L 

x = L / (sqrt2 + 1) From here, we rationalize. 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (sqrt2 + 1)(sqrt2 - 1) 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (2 - 1) 


x = L(sqrt2 - 1) </span>

 

= 0.414L

 

<span>Therefore, the third particle should be located the 0.414L x axis so that the magnitude of the gravitational force on both particle 1 and particle 2 doubles.</span>
