a deer with a mass of 176 kg is running head-on towards you with a velocity of 19 m/s. you are going north. find the magnitude a
Igoryamba

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

According to this formula,

Momentum of deer = 176 × 19 = 3344 kg•m/s.

Since you are heading north and the deer is running towards you, the direction of the deer' s momentum is north as well.

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. a proton is released from re
dedylja [7]

According to Newton's second law

E.e = a * mp  ..... (1)

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field; e = 1.6 * 10^-19 is the elementary charge; mp = 1.67*10^-27 kg is the proton mass; a is the acceleration.

So, the distance

l = at^2/2 .......(2)

The proton accelerated

a = 2l / t^2 ...........(3)

From equations (1) and (3)

E= 32.51 V/m

Electric field

The physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them, is known as an electric field (also known as an E-field).  It can also refer to a system of charged particles' physical field. Electric charges and time-varying electric currents are the building blocks of electric fields. The electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (also known as forces) of nature, manifests itself in both electric and magnetic fields.

What happened as the mass of the sun increased during formation of the solor system
sveta [45]

Answer:

Formation. Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. ... When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material. At the center, gravity pulled more and more material in.

A high diver of mass 51.7 kg steps off a board 10.0 m above the water and falls vertical to the water, starting from rest. If he
zmey [24]

Answer:

851.33 N

Explanation:

Using newton;s equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2gh ......... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height

Given: u = 0 m/s(from rest), h = 10 m g = 9.8 m/s².

Substitute into equation 1

v² = 0² + 2(9.8)(10)

v² = 196

v = √196

v = 14 m/s.

Note: As the Diver touches the water,  u = 14 m/s and v = 0 m/s( stopped)

Using,

d = (v+u)t/2 .............. equation 2

Where d = distance moved by the diver in water before its motion stopped, t = time taken before it comes to rest

Given: v = 0 m/s, u = 14 m/s t = 2.10 s

Substitute into equation 2

d = (0+14)2.1/2

d = 14.7 m.

Finally

work done by the water to stop the diver = potential energy of the diver

F×d = mgh'................Equation 3

Where F = force of the diver in water, d = distance of the diver in the water, m = mass of the diver, g = acceleration due to gravity, h' = height of the diver from the point of fall to the point where he comes to rest

making F the subject of the equation,

F = mgh/d ............ Equation 4

Given: m = 51.7 kg, h = 10 m, g = 9.8 m/s², d = 14.7 m.

Substitute into equation 4

F = 51.7(10+14.7)(9.8)/14.7

F = 851.33 N

Hence the upward force the water exert on her = 851.33 N
