A constant force of 2.5 N to the right acts on a 4.5 kg mass for 0.90 s.

Answer:

(a) v_f=0.5\frac{m}{s}

(b) v_f=-11\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

(a) Since a constant external force is applied to the body, it is under an uniformly accelerated motion. Using the following kinematic equation, we calculate the final velocity of the mass  if it is initially at rest(v_0=0):

v_f=v_0+at\\v_f=at(1)

According to Newton's second law:

F=ma\\a=\frac{F}{m}(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

v_f=\frac{F}{m}t\\v_f=\frac{2.5N}{4.5kg}(0.9s)\\v_f=0.5\frac{m}{s}

(b) In this case we have v_0=-11.5\frac{m}{s}. So, we use the final velocity equation:

v_f=v_0+at\\v_f=v_0+\frac{F}{m}t\\v_f=-11.5\frac{m}{s}+\frac{2.5N}{4.5kg}(0.9s)\\v_f=-11\frac{m}{s}

A 4.4 kg mess kit sliding on a frictionless surface explodes into two 2.2 kg parts, one moving at 2.9 m/s, due north, and the ot
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Original speed of the mess kit = 4.43 m/s at 50.67° north of east.

Explanation:

Let north represent positive y axis and east represent positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Let the initial velocity be v.

Initial momentum = 4.4 x v = 4.4v

Velocity of 2.2 kg moving at 2.9 m/s, due north = 2.9 j m/s

Velocity of 2.2 kg moving at 6.8 m/s, 35° north of east = 6.9 ( cos 35i + sin35 j ) = 5.62 i + 3.96 j m/s

Final momentum = 2.2 x 2.9 j + 2.2 x (5.62 i + 3.96 j) = 12.364 i + 15.092 j kgm/s

We have

         Initial momentum = Final momentum

         4.4v = 12.364 i + 15.092 j

         v =2.81 i + 3.43 j

Magnitude

        v=\sqrt{2.81^2+3.43^2}=4.43m/s

Direction

       \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{3.43}{2.81}\right )=50.67^0

       50.67° north of east.

Original speed of the mess kit = 4.43 m/s at 50.67° north of east.

What is the gravitational force between a 45 kg person, and the Earth at 5.98 x 1024 kg, with a distance of
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

C. 441 N

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects can by calculated by the formula

= G m₁m₂ / r² , m₁ and m₂ are masses at distance r

= ( 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 45 x 5.98 x 10²⁴) / ( 6.38 x 10⁶ )²

= 44.09 x 10

= 440.9 N

= 441 N .

3. How do astronomers explain the lack of a meteorite in Tunguska? What evidence exists to support this
Vaselesa [24]
No traces of a meteorite were found, it many scientists concluded that the culprit was a comet. Comets, which are essentially muddy ice balls, could cause such a devastation and leave no trace.

But now, 105 years later, scientists have revealed that the Tunguska devastation was indeed caused by a meteorite. A group of Ukrainian, German, and American scientists have identified its microscopic remains. Why it took them so many years makes for a fascinating tale about the limits of science and how we are pushing them.
