Bicycle in its writers have combined a mass of 80 kg in a speed of 6.0 meters per Second what is the magnitude of the average fo

erik [133]

Answer:

F = 120 N

Explanation:

Force x distance = energy

The bike has energy 1/2 . 80 . 6^2 = 1440 J

You are looking at an example of not reading the question properly.

Impulse = Force . time = change in momentum

F . 4 = 80 .6

F = 120 N

An empty 2,500 kg train car is headed northbound at a velocity of 5 m/s. Ahead of the first car, an empty 1,500 kg car is headed

Tema [17]

Let the mass of 2500 kg car be $m_1$ and it's velocity be $v_1$ and the mass of 1500 kg car be $m_2$ and it's velocity be $v_2$ .

After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.

By law of conservation of momentum we have

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = MV$

2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V

V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s

So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s

Choose the statement(s) that is/are true about the ratio \frac{C_p}{C_v} C p C v for a gas? (Ii) This ratio is the same for all

Blababa [14]

Answer:

(i) false

(ii) true

(iii) true

(iv) false

Explanation:

(i) The ratio of Cp and Cv is not constant for all the gases. It is because the value of cp and Cv is different for monoatomic, diatomic and polyatomic gases.

So, this is false.

(ii) For monoatomic gas

Cp = 5R/2, Cv = 3R/2

So, thier ratio

Cp / Cv = 5 / 3 = 1.67

This statement is true.

(iii) for diatomic gases

Cp = 7R/2, Cv = 5R/2

Cp / Cv = 7 / 5 = 1.4

This statement is true.

(iv) It is false.

. While a person lifts a book of mass 2 kg from the floor to a tabletop, 1.5 m above the floor, how much work does the the perso

viktelen [127]

Answer:

a) 29.4 J

b) - 29.4 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the book, m = 2 kg

Height above the floor, h = 1.5 m

Now,

the work done by the person will be = Force applied on the book × displacement of the book

thus,

Work done by the person = mg × h

where, g is the acceleration due to gravity

thus, on substituting the values, we get

Work done by the person = 2 × 9.8 × 1.5 = 29.4 J

now,

for the force applied by the gravitational pull (downwards) the displacement is in opposite direction (upwards) to the force of the gravity.

Thus,

work done by the gravity will be negative

therefore, the work done by the gravity = - mg × h

work done by the gravity = - 29.4 J

A firecracker breaks up into two pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the x-axis with a speed of 82.0 m/

larisa [96]

Answer:

Total momentum, p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of first piece, $m_1=200\ g= 0.2\ kg$

Mass of the second piece, $m_2=300\ g= 0.3\ kg$

Speed of the first piece, $v_1=82\ m/s$ (along x axis)

Speed of the second piece, $v_2=45\ m/s$ (along y axis)

To find,

The total momentum of the two pieces.

Solve,

The total momentum of two pieces is equal to the sum of momentum along x axis and along y axis.

$p_x=m_1v_1$

$p_x=0.2\ kg\times 82\ m/s$

$p_x=16.4\ kg-m/s$

$p_y=m_2v_2$

$p_y=0.3\ kg\times 45\ m/s$

$p_y=13.5\ kg-m/s$

The net momentum is given by :

$p=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}$

$p=\sqrt{16.4^2+13.5^2}$

p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Therefore, the total momentum of the two pieces is 21.24 kg-m/s.
