Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, t

his gun accelerates a 3.8-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 9.3 × 103 m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 9.3 × 105 N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?

Answer:

t=0.038s

Explanation:

Project mass m=3.8 kg

Initial speed vi= 0m/s

Final speed vf= 9.3×10³ m/s

Force F=9.3×10⁵N

To find

Time t

Solution

From Newtons second law we know that

∑F=ma

Where m is mass

a is acceleration

We can write this equation as

∑F=m(Δv/Δt)

=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}

Rearrange this equation to find time t

So

t=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{F}

Substitute the given values

t=3.8kg\frac{9.3*10^3m/s-0}{9.3*10^5N} \\t=0.038s

A small space probe of mass 170 kg is launched from a spacecraft near Mars. It travels toward the surface of Mars, where it will
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The change  in momentum is  \Delta p =   kg \cdot m/s      

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The mass of the probe is  m = 170 kg

       The location of the prob at time t = 22.9 s is  A  =

       The  momentum at time  t = 22.9 s is  p = < 51000, -7000, 0> kg m/s

        The net force on the probe is  F =  N

Generally the change in momentum is mathematically represented as

              \Delta p = F * \Delta t

The initial time is   22.6 s

 The final time  is  22.9 s

             Substituting values  

           \Delta p =  * (22.9 - 22.6)

            \Delta p =  * (0.3)  

              \Delta p =   kg \cdot m/s

A spring stretches 5 cm when a 300-N mass is suspended from it. Calculate the spring constant in N / m .
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Explanation:

Given:

Length of spring stretches = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Force = 300 N

Find:

Spring constant in N / m

Computation:

Spring constant in N / m = Force/Distance

Spring constant in N / m = 300 / 0.05

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Using newtons second law of motion, how fast for 100 KG object accelerates 350 N of force is applied to
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

3.5m/s^2

Explanation:

From Newton's second Law of Motion

F = ma

Where F is the applied force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration.

F = 350 N

Mass = 100kg

350N = 100×a

a = 350/100

a = 3.5m/s^2

The acceleration of the object will be 3.5m/s^2
