Answer:

31677.2 lb

Explanation:

mass of hammer (m) = 3.7 lb

initial velocity (u) = 5.8 ft/s

final velocity (v) = 0

time (t) = 0.00068 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) 32 ft/s^{2}

force = m x ( a + g )

where

  • m is the mass = 3.7 lb
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s^{2}
  • a is the acceleration of the hammer

       from v = u + at

       a = (v-u)/ t

       a = (0-5.8)/0.00068 = -8529.4 ( the negative sign showa the its decelerating)

we can substitute all required values into force= m x (a+g)

force = 3.7 x (8529.4 + 32) = 31677.2 lb

A car is traveling with a velocity of 5.5 m/s and has a mass of 1200 kg. What is the kinetic energy?!
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>18150 J</h2>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the car can be found by using the formula

k =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\

m is the Mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

k =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1200 \times  {5.5}^{2}  \\  = 600 \times 30.25

We have the final answer as

<h3>18150 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

give an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey?
BartSMP [9]

Motion of a ball thrown by a person upwards and caught after some time is an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey.

The displacement of the ball is zero because the starting and end point of the motion are same, i.e, the person's hands.During its motion, the acceleration of ball is constant and non zero called as acceleration due to gravity, g= -9.8 m/s². The velocity of ball is continuously changing. It first decreases during the upward motion of the ball and then increases during the downward journey.The acceleration remains constant and non zero all the time.

(a) find the magnitude of the gravitational force between a planet with mass 7.50 3 1024 kg and its moon, with mass 2.70 3 1022
anzhelika [568]
<span>The magnitude of the gravitational force between two bodies is the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance between them. So we have F = M1*M2 / r^2. M1 = 7.503 * 10e24 and M2 = 2.703 * 10e22 and r= 2.803 * 10e8; r^2 = 5.606 *10e16. So we have 7.503 *2.703 *10^(24+22) = 20.280 * 10^(46). Then we divide our answer by 5.606 * 10e16 which is the distance ; then we have 3.6175 * 10 e (46- 16) = 3.6175 * 10e30. To find the acceleration we use Newton's second law F = ma. F is 3.6175 * 10e30 and M is 7.503 * 10e24 so a = F/M and then we have 3.6175/7.503 * 10e (30-24) = 0.48 * 10e6. Similarly for moon, we have a = 3.6715/2.703 * 10e(30-22). = 1.358 * 10e8</span>

A volt-ampere (va) is the product of the voltage and the ________________ of the electricity on a line.â
zalisa [80]
A volt-ampere is the product of the voltage and the current (measured in amperes) of the electricity on a line. Voltage is electric potential difference in charge between two points in an electrical field. it is measured in volts. while the Current is the flow of electrical charge which is often carried by moving electrons in a wire or a conductor. Current is measured in Amperes.
