Answer:

Explanation:

This is a momentum / impulse question.   Δp = F•(Δt)

The momentum of the car goes from 1150*85 = 97750 to 0 in 0.1 seconds.

From this we get the equation 97750 = F(.1)

 a)   F = 977500 N

For part b), the change in momentum is unchanged, so we must increase the time in order to decrease the force.

97750 = 200000(t)

b)       t = 0.49 s  or .5 s considering sig figs which means an increase factor of 5

Which example provides the most complete description of an object's motion?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes.

Explanation:

In order to describe the motion of an object, distance covered and time taken must be required. The total path covered by an object is called the distance travelled.

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes. This describes the motion of hiker. The motion shows how fast the hiker is moving.  

Distance, d = 2 miles = 3218.6 m

times, t = 30 minutes = 1800 seconds

So, we can say that the hiker is moving with a speed of 1.78 m/s in north direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

An Olympic discus thrower (~100 kg) launches the 2.0 kg discus by spinning rapidly (~4 times per second) with arm outstretched (
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

F = 1263.03 N

Explanation:s

given,                      

mass of the disk thrower = 100 Kg

mass of the disk = 2 Kg                

angular speed of the disk  = 4 rev/s

arm outstretched = 1 m                  

centripetal force of the disk in the circular path

F = m ω² r                        

ω = 4 x 2 x π        

ω = 25.13 rad/s

F = m ω² r                      

F = 2 x 25.13² x 1

F = 1263.03 N                                              

hence, centripetal force equal to the F = 1263.03 N

The resistance of a lamp that draws 0.5A of current when it is operated by a 12V battery will be Ω
lisabon 2012 [21]
According to Ohm's Law, the resistance, current and voltage are related as:

V = IR
⇒
R = V/I

V is given to be 12 Volts.
I is given to be 0.5 Ampere 

So, resistance will be:

R = 12/0.5 = 24 ohms
