A man holding a rock sits on a sled that is sliding across a frozen lake (negligible friction) with a speed of 0.460 m/s. The to

tal mass of the sled, man, and rock is 95.0 kg. The mass of the rock is 0.310 kg and the man can throw it with a speed of 15.5 m/s. Both speeds are relative to the ground. Determine the speed of the sled (in m/s) if the man throws the rock forward (i.e., in the direction the sled is moving).

Answer:

= 0.417 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum before throwing the rock: m*V = 95.0 kg * 0.460 m/s

= 44.27 N*s  

A) man throws the rock forward

mass of rock m1 = 0.310 kg

V1 = 15.5 m/s, in the same direction of the sled with the man

sled and man:

m2 = 95 kg - 0.310 kg = 94.69 kg

v2 = ?

Conservation of momentum:

momentum before throw = momentum after throw

44.27N*s = 0.310kg * 15.5m/s + 94.69kg*v2

⇒ v2 = [44.27 N*s - 0.310 * 15.5N*s ] / 94.69 kg

= 0.417 m/s

Answer:

0.41 m/s.

Explanation:

Mt = 95 kg

Mr = 0.31 kg

Vr = 15.5m/s

Ut = 0.46 m/s

Mass of the man and sled = (95 - 0.31) kg

= 94.69 kg

Using conservation of momentum equation,

Momentum before the throw = momentum after the throw

95 × 0.46 = 0.31 × 15.5 + 94.69 × V2

43.7 = 4.805 + 94.69 V2

V2 = 0.41 m/s.

The volume of 2.0 kg of helium in a piston-cylinder device is initially 7 m3. Now the helium is compressed to 5 m3 while its pre
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

A) T1 = 269.63 K

T2 = 192.59 K

B) W = -320 KJ

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial volume: V1 = 7 m³

Final Volume; V2 = 5 m³

Constant Pressure; P = 160 KPa

Mass; m = 2 kg

To find the initial and final temperatures, we will use the ideal gas formula;

T = PV/mR

Where R is gas constant of helium = R = 2.0769 kPa.m/kg

Thus;

Initial temperature; T1 = (160 × 7)/(2 × 2.0769) = 269.63 K

Final temperature; T2 = (160 × 5)/(2 × 2.0769) = 192.59 K

B) world one is given by the formula;

W = P(V2 - V1)

W = 160(5 - 7)

W = -320 KJ

olasank [31]
Hello.

The solor system is organized by the smallest star to the largest and by the 8 planets. it is also organized by how much gas a planet has. But it is also orgainzed becasue of gravity.

The different divisions are <span>planets, moons, asteroids, comets and meteoroids.

crimeas [40]
Use equations of motion to find the velocity just before it hits the floor: 
<span>Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2gx </span>
<span>Final velocity = 4.42m/s </span>

<span>Impulse is change in momentum so: </span>
<span>m(Vf - Vi) = 0.05(0 - 4.42) </span>
<span>= - 0.221 kg.m/s
