I think its a tbh bc it seems to be the best answer out of a b c and d
Electromagnets are used for various purposes but I fathom in this instance, the questioner is asking about how electromagnetics can be used to attraction or repulsion.
Example, electromagnets are used for attraction in cranes which attach them to containers in order to lift them.
Meanwhile, Maglev trains use electromagnets repulsive properties.
We want to find how much momentum the dumbbell has at the moment it strikes the floor. Let's use this kinematics equation:
Vf² = Vi² + 2ad
Vf is the final velocity of the dumbbell, Vi is its initial velocity, a is its acceleration, and d is the height of its fall.
Given values:
Vi = 0m/s (dumbbell starts falling from rest)
a = 10m/s² (we'll treat downward motion as positive, this doesn't affect the result as long as we keep this in mind)
d = 80×10⁻²m
Plug in the values and solve for Vf:
Vf² = 2(10)(80×10⁻²)
Vf = ±4m/s
Reject the negative root.
Vf = 4m/s
The momentum of the dumbbell is given by:
p = mv
p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.
Given values:
m = 10kg
v = 4m/s (from previous calculation)
Plug in the values and solve for p:
p = 10(4)
p = 40kg×m/s
