<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.

Ronch [10]

The acceleration of the car is 0.8049m/s^{2}.It takes 13.802s to travel the 230 m.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

In mechanics, acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time varies. Acceleration is a vector quantity (in that they have magnitude and direction). The direction of an object's acceleration is determined by the direction of the net force acting on it. Newton's Second Law states that the combined effect of two factors determines how much an item accelerates: 

(i) It follows that  the magnitude of the net balance of all external forces acting on the object is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resulting force, and

(ii) the mass of the thing, depending on the materials out of which it is constructed, is inversely proportional to the mass of the thing.

Calculations:

40 km/hr ----- 11.11m/s

80 km/hr ----- 22.22m/s

v^{2} -u^{2} =2as\\22.22^{2} - 11.11^{2} = 2 x a x 230\\ 370.296=460a\\ a= 0.8049m/s^{2} \\

Time taken

v-u=at

22.22-11.11= 0.8049 x t

t=13.802s

A woman launches a boat from one shore of a straight river and wants to land at the point directly on the opposite shore. If the
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South

A baseball pitcher throws the ball towards the batter at 90 mph. His bat connects with the ball for a line drive, after which th
forsale [732]

Answer:

F=-18412.9N, where the minus indicates the direction is opposite to that of the throw.

Explanation:

a)

Since MKS stands for meter-kilogram-second and we know that:

1\ hour = 3600\ seconds

1\ mile = 1600\ meters

1000g = 1kg

We can write that:

\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds}=1

\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile}=1

\frac{1kg}{1000g}=1

These are conversion factors, equal to 1, so multiplying our results by them won't change their value, only their units.

So we have that:

90 mph=90 \frac{miles}{hour}(\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds})(\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile})=40m/s

110 mph=110 \frac{miles}{hour}(\frac{1\ hour}{3600\ seconds})(\frac{1600\ meters}{1\ mile})=48.89m/s

145 g=145 g(\frac{1kg}{1000g})=0.145kg

b)

Newton's 2nd Law tells us that F=ma, and the definition of acceleration is a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}, so we have:

F=m\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

Taking the throw direction as the positive one, for our values we have:

F=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}=(0.145kg)\frac{(-48.89m/s)-(+40m/s)}{0.0007s}=-18412.9N

What net force would be needed to accelerate the box at 2.3 m/s^2
Akimi4 [234]
The pertinent equation here is F=ma.  You haven't shared the mass of the box, so I will use M to represent that mass.

Then F = M(<span>2.3 m/s^2)        (answer)</span>
