A paintball’s mass is 0.0032kg. A typical paintball strikes a target moving at 85.3 m/s.

Physics

Answer:

A)  If the paintball stops completely the magnitude of the change in the paintball’s momentum is  p=0.273kg*m/s

B) If the paintball bounces off its target and afterward moves in the opposite direction with the same speed, the change in the paintball’s momentum is  p=0.546kg*m/s

C) A paintball bouncing off your skin in the opposite direction with the same speed hurts more than a paintball exploding upon your skin because of the strength exerted is twice than if it explodes.

Explanation:

Hi

A) We use the formula of momentum p=mv, so we have p=0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.273kg*m/s

B) We use the same formula above, then due we have a change of direction at the same speed, therefore the change in the momentum is the double so

p=2*0.0032kg*85.3m/s=0.546kg*m/s.

C) The average strength of the force an object exerts during impact is determined by the amount the object’s momentum changes. therefore

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}, as we don't have any data about the impact time but we know momentum is twice, time does no matter and strength is twice too.

A 11 g plastic ball is moving to the left at 29 m/s. How much work must be done on the ball to cause it to move to the right at
Rasek [7]

Answer:

4.25 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass of plastic ball = 11 g

Mass of plastic ball = 0.011 kg

velocity of ball = 29 m/s

We know that from work power energy theorem

W_{all}=Change\ in\ kinetic\ energy\ of\ system

We know that kinetic energy of moving mass given as

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Now by pitting the values

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.011\times 29^2

KE= 4.25 J

So the work done on the ball is 4.25 J

CONFUSED!!!
otez555 [7]

A. Impulse is simply the product of Force and time. Therefore,

I = F * t                                 ---> 1

where I is impulse, F is force, t is time

 

However another formula for solving impulse is:

I = m vf – m vi                    ---> 2

where m is mass, vf is final velocity and vi is initial velocity

 

Therefore using equation 2 to solve for impulse I:

I = 2000kg (0) – 2000kg (77 m/s)
I = -154,000 kg m/s

 

B. By conservation of momentum, we also know that Impulse is conserved. That means that increasing the time by a factor of 3 would still result in an impuse of -154,000 kg m/s. So,

I = F’ * (3 t) = -154,000 kg m/s

Since t is multiplied by 3, therefore this only means that Force is decreased by a factor of 3 to keep the impulse constant, therefore:

(F/3) (3t) = -154,000 kg m/s

 

 

Summary of Answers:

A. I = -154,000 kg m/s

B. Force is decreased by factor of 3

In an electric motor _____energy is transformed into_____energy?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

In an electric motor the electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy. Almost every mechanical movement that we see around us is accomplished by an electric motor. Electric machines are a means of converting energy. Motors take electrical energy and produce mechanical energy.
