. Why are objects that fall near Earth's surface rarely in free fall?

Answer:

Objects that fall near Earth’s surface are rarely in free fall.

"Free fall" is the situation where the ONLY force on an object is

the force of gravity, and nothing else.

Objects near Earth's surface are almost always surrounded by air.

If they are falling, then the air is exerting forces on them, and they

are not in "free fall".

ira [324]

Answer:

517.5Ns

Explanation:

F=(MV - MU)/t

where MV - MU is the change in momentum,

therefore, MV - MU = Ft

= 345 X 1.

= 517.5Ns

After an asteroid belt comes the outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The interesting thing is, in some other planetary systems discovered, the gas giants are actually quite close to the sun</span>

If a football player does 39000 J of work, how much power does the football player exert in 5 minutes
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Power = 130 watt

Explanation:

Power is described as the ability to do work, it is also defined as the amount of work in Joules done in a given time in seconds. Mathematically, it is represented as:

power = \frac{work (J)}{Time (s)}

In this example, power is calculated as follows:

Work = 39000 J

Time = 5 minutes

converting the time from minutes to seconds:

1 minute = 60 seconds

∴ 5 minutes = 60 × 5 = 300 seconds

\therefore power = \frac{39000}{300} \\power = 130 watt

N:B the unit for power can also be represented as Joules/seconds or J/s or JS⁻¹

Find deacceleration An engineer in a locomotive sees a car stuck on the track at a railroad crossing in front of the train. When
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The deceleration is  a = -0.7273 \ m/s^2  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The distance of the car from the crossing is d = 360 \  m

   The speed is u  = 16 \  m/s

    The reaction time of the engineer is  t = 0.53 \ s

Generally the distance covered during the reaction time is  

      d_r = u * t

=>   d_r = 16 * 0.53

=>   d_r = 8.48 \ m

Generally distance of the car from the crossing after the  engineer reacts is

      D = d- d_r        

=> D = 360 - 8.48      

=> D = 352 \ m

Generally from kinematic equation

      v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here v is the final velocity of the car which is  0 m/s

So

        0^2 = 16^2 + 2 * a * 352

=>    a = -0.7273 \ m/s^2
