Answer:
F = -8440.12 N
the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N
Explanation:
Given;
Mass of child m = 16 kg
Speed of each car v = 59.0 mi/h = 26.37536 m/s
Time t = 0.05s
Applying the impulse momentum equation;
Impulse = change in momentum
Ft = ∆(mv)
F = ∆(mv)/t
F = m(∆v)/t
Where;
F = force
t = time
m = mass
v = velocity
Since the final speed of the car is zero(at rest) then;
∆v = 0 - v = -26.37536 m/s
Substituting the given values;
F = 16×-26.37536/0.05
F = -8440.1152 N
F = -8440.12 N
the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N
Many devices have been invented to accurately measure temperature. It all started with the establishment of a temperature scale. This scale transformed the measurement of temperature into meaningful numbers.
In the early years of the eighteenth century, Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) created the Fahrenheit scale. He set the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. These two points formed the anchors for his scale.
Later in that century, around 1743, Anders Celsius (1701-1744) invented the Celsius scale. Using the same anchor points, he determined the freezing temperature for water to be 0 degree and the boiling temperature 100 degrees. The Celsius scale is known as a Universal System Unit. It is used throughout science and in most countries.
There is a limit to how cold something can be. The Kelvin scale is designed to go to zero at this minimum temperature. The relationships between the different temperature scales are:
oK = 273.15 + oC oC = (5/9)*(oF-32) oF = (9/5)*oC+32
oF oC oK
Water boils 212 100 373
Room Temperature 72 23 296
Water Freezes 32 0 273
Absolute Zero -460 -273 0
At a temperature of Absolute Zero there is no motion and no heat. Absolute zero is where all atomic and molecular motion stops and is the lowest temperature possible. Absolute Zero occurs at 0 degrees Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius or at -460 degrees Fahrenheit. All objects emit thermal energy or heat unless they have a temperature of absolute zero.
If we want to understand what temperature means on the molecular level, we should remember that temperature is the average energy of the molecules that composes a substance. The atoms and molecules in a substance do not always travel at the same speed. This means that there is a range of energy (the energy of motion) among the molecules. In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. Sometimes these molecules collide with each other. When this happens the higher speed molecule transfers some of its energy to the slower molecule causing the slower molecule to speed up and the faster molecule to slow down. If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced. So, higher temperatures mean a substance has higher average molecular motion. We do not feel or detect a bunch of different temperatures for each molecule which has a different speed. What we measure as the temperature is always related to the average speed of the molecules in a system
Answer: 
Explanation:
We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity 
of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.
Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:
(1)
Where:
is the module of the force exerted between both bodies
is the gravitational constant
is the mass of the Earth
are the mass of each communications satellite
is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite
is the radius of the Earth
is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface
On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>
(2)
Combining (1) and (2):
(3)
Isolating :
(4)
Remembering :
(5)
Finally:
Answer:
-4.0 N
Explanation:
Since the force of friction is the only force acting on the box, according to Newton's second law its magnitude must be equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):
(1)
We can find the mass of the box from its weight: in fact, since the weight is W = 50.0 N, its mass will be
And we can fidn the acceleration by using the formula:
where
v = 0 is the final velocity
u = 1.75 m/s is the initial velocity
t = 2.25 s is the time the box needs to stop
Substituting, we find
(the acceleration is negative since it is opposite to the motion, so it is a deceleration)
Therefore, substituting into eq.(1) we find the force of friction:
Where the negative sign means the direction of the force is opposite to the motion of the box.
