Complete Question:

Football player A has a mass of 110 kg, and he is running down the field with a velocity of 2 m/s. Football player B has a mass of 120 kg and is stationary. What is the total momentum after the collision?

Answer:

Total momentum = 220 Kgm/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

For footballer A

Mass, M1 = 110kg

Velocity, V1 = 2m/s

For footballer B

Mass, M1 = 120kg

Velocity, V1 = 0m/s since he's stationary.

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

$Momentum = mass * velocity$

a. To find the momentum of A;

$Momentum \; A = 110 * 2$

Momentum A = 220 Kgm/s.

b. To find the momentum of B;

$Momentum \; B = 120 * 0$

Momentum B = 0 Kgm/s.

c. To find the total momentum of the two persons;

$Total \; momentum = Momentum \; A + Momentum \; B$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Total \; momentum = 220 + 0$

Total momentum = 220 Kgm/s.

A horizontal force acts on an object on a fric- tionless horizontal surface. If the force is halved and the mass of the object i

guapka [62]

(a) If the force is halved and the mass of the object is doubled, the acceleration will be one-fourth as great.

(b) if the force on it is doubled and its mass is halved, the new acceleration will be four times as great.

The force on an object is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

$\frac{F_1}{m_1a_1} = \frac{F_2}{m_2a_2}$

(a)

when the force is halved, F₂ = 0.5F₁,

mass is doubled, m₂ = 2m₁

$\frac{F_1}{m_1a_1} = \frac{0.5F_1}{2m_1a_2} \\\\2m_1a_2F_1 = 0.5F_1 m_1a_1\\\\2a_2 = 0.5a_1\\\\a_2 = \frac{0.5a_1}{2} = \frac{a_1}{2 \times 2} = \frac{a_1}{4} \\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{4} (a_1)$

Thus, If the force is halved and the mass of the object is doubled, the acceleration will be one-fourth as great.

(b)

when the force is doubled, F₂ = 2F₁,

mass is halved, m₂ = 0.5m₁

$\frac{F_1}{m_1 a_1} = \frac{2F_1}{0.5m_1 a_2} \\\\0.5m_1a_2 F_1 = 2F_1m_1a_1\\\\0.5a_2 = 2a_1\\\\a_2 = \frac{2a_1}{0.5} \\\\a_2 = 4(a_1)$

Thus, if the force on it is doubled and its mass is halved, the new acceleration will be four times as great.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 2.5 m/s and 6.25 m

Explanation:

u = 0

a = 0.5 m/s²

t = 5 s

v = u + at

= 0 + 0.5 × 5

= 2.5 m/s

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 1/2 × 2.5 × 5

= 6.25 m
