4. How much force is required to stop a 60 kg person traveling at 30 m/s during a time of a)
11111nata11111 [884]

Explanation:

F = ma, and a = Δv / Δt.

F = m Δv / Δt

Given: m = 60 kg and Δv = -30 m/s.

a) Δt = 5.0 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (5.0 s)

F = -360 N

b) Δt = 0.50 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (0.50 s)

F = -3600 N

c) Δt = 0.05 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (0.05 s)

F = -36000 N

4. A little boy pushes a wagon with his dog in it. The mass of the dog and
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

<h2>59.5 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 70 × 0.85

We have the final answer as

<h3>59.5 N</h3>

A toy balloon contains 0.75 L of helium at a pressure of 101 kPa. The balloon rises until the pressure on the balloon is 85 kPa.
Aleksandr [31]

<h3>The answer is 0.89 L</h3>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{101000 \times 0.75}{85000}  =  \frac{75750}{85000}  \\  = 0.89117647...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.89 L</h3>

Hope this helps you

A block with a weight of 9.0 N is at rest on a horizontal surface. A 1.2 N upward force is applied to the block by means of an a
lesya [120]

Answer:

a)   9 - 1.2 = 7.8 N

b) Since the force exerted by the box is it's weight, it acts in a downward direction. So the box will exert a force downward (perpendicular to the horizontal surface).

Explanation:

A 9N block would exert 9N of normal force on the horizontal plane under normal conditions. But in this case, we have a spring taking away some of the force by applying an upward force on the box.

So the force exerted by the box on the surface would now be:

a)   9 - 1.2 = 7.8 N

b) Since the force exerted by the box is it's weight, it acts in a downward direction. So the box will exert a force downward (perpendicular to the horizontal surface).

Is there ever a situation where an ant will have more momentum than an elephant? Explain why or why not? Question 2 options: Yes
sergiy2304 [10]

An ant can have more momentum than an elephant when the elephant is standing still.

Answer: A

Explanation

The momentum is the quantification of the movement done by an object.

It is found to be dependent on the mass of the object and the velocity with which it is moving.

In the present case, the ant has negligible mass compared to elephant so the momentum can be more for ant only when the velocity with which the elephant is moving tends to be zero.

As the velocity of elephant will be zero, the momentum of elephant will be zero so in this criteria, the moving ant will be having more momentum compared to elephant with zero velocity.

So an elephant with zero velocity means the elephant is standing still.

Thus, the condition in which the ant will be having more momentum compared to elephant is when the elephant stands still.
