Answer:0.25 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of blob m=50 gm

initial velocity u=-5 m/s\ \hat{i}

time of collision t=20 ms

we know Impulse is equal to change in momentum

initial momentum P_i=mu

P_i=50\times 10^{-3}\times (-5)=-0.25 kg-m/s

Final momentum P_f=50\times 10^{-3}v

P_f=0 as final velocity is zero

Impulse J=P_f-P_i

J=0-(-0.25)

J=0.25 kg-m/s

A driver travels 135 km, east in 1.5 h, stops for 45 minutes for lunch, and then resumes driving for the next 2.0 h through a di
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
<h2>82.353 km/hr</h2>

Explanation:

       The driver travels 135 km towards East in 1.5 hr. He stops for 45 min. He again travels 215 km towards East in 2.0 hr.

       The total displacement of the driver in the given time is ths sum of individual displacements, because all the displacements are in the same directon.

       Total displacement = 135\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }+\text{ }0\text{ }km\text{ }+\text{ }215\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }=\text{ }350\text{ }km\text{ }East

       Total time travelled = 1.5\text{ }hr\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }2.0\text{ }hr\text{ }=\text{ }90\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }120\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }255\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4\text{ }hr\text{ }15\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4.25\text{ }hr

      \text{Average velocity = }\dfrac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time taken}}=\dfrac{350\text{ }km}{4.25\text{ }hr}=82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}

∴ Driver's average velocity = 82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}

The force of replusion between two like charged particles will increase if​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The distance of separation is decreased

Explanation:

From Cuolomb's law, we know that the strength of charge is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the charges. To mean that increasing the distance let's say from 2m to 3 m would mean initial strength getting form 1/4 to 1/9 which is a decrease. The vice versa is true hence the force of repulsion can increase only when we decrease the distance of separation.

If a car's speed triples, how does the momentum and kinetic energy of the
Harrizon [31]

Answer: When the car speed triples, momentum also triples but Kinetic energy increases 9 times or by 9 fold.

Explanation:

The momentum of a car (an object) is

p= mv

where

m is =the mass of the object( in this case car)

v is its= velocity

While the kinetic energy is is given by the formulae

K=1/2mv²

To determine how momentum and kinetic energy of the  car changes when the speed of the object triples, We have that the new velocity,

v¹= 3v

So that  the momentum  change becomes

p¹=mv¹=m (3v)= 3mv

mv=p

therefore p¹= 3p

we can see that the momentum also triples.

And the kinetic energy change  becomes

K¹=1/2m(v¹)²= 1/2m (3v)²

= 1/2m9v²= 1/2 x m x 9 x v²=9 x1/2mv²

1/2mv²=K

K¹= Kinetic energy = 9k

but Kinetic energy increases 9 times

Consider a situation where a constant force of 25 N acts on an object having a mass of 2 kg for 3 seconds. What is the work done
blagie [28]

Answer:

Work done W =1406.25 J

Explanation:

Work done on a body can be calculated using newton's 2nd laws:

F=ma

\Rightarrow a=\frac{F}{m}

Hence acceleration of the block is given by:

\Rightarrow a=\frac{25}{2}=12.5m/s^2

Displacement of the object is given by:

\Rightarrow S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substitute the values

\Rightarrow S=0*3+\frac{1}{2}(12.5)3^2

\Rightarrow S=56.25 m

Now work done is given by:

 W=F.S

W = 25×56.25

W =1406.25 J
