A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "50.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
1 answer:
Answer:(a) 50 N
(b)38.34 N
Explanation:
Given
Maximum tension(T) in line 50 N
(a)If line is moving up with constant velocity i.e. there is no acceleration
This will happen when Tension is equal to weight of Fish
T-mg=0
T=mg
Maximum weight in this case will be 50 N
(b)acceleration of magnitude
T-mg=ma
m=3.91
Therefore weight is

Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
The momentum of an object is given by:
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We know that an elephant has a mass much larger than the mass of an ant. However, we see that the momentum of the animal also depends on its velocity.
If the elephant is at rest, its velocity is zero:
v = 0
so its momentum is also zero:
p = 0
And therefore, an ant which is moving (so, non-zero speed) can have more momentum than an elephant, if the elephant is at rest.
