Block A, with a mass of 4.0 kg, is moving with a speed of 3.0 m/s while block B, with a mass of 6.0 kg, is moving in the opposit

Answer:

The momentum of the two-block system is 18 kg-m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of block A, m_A=4\ kg  

Mass of block B, m_B=6\ kg  

Velocity of block A, v_A=3\ m/s  

Velocity of block B, v_B=-5\ m/s (it is moving in opposite direction)

We need to find the momentum of two block system. It is given by the product of mass and velocity for both blocks i.e.

p=m_Av_A+m_Bv_B

p=4\ kg\times 3\ m/s+6\ kg\times (-5\ m/s)

p = -18 kg-m/s

So, the momentum of two block system is 18 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

11–8 Consider a heavy car submerged in water in a lake with a flat bottom. The driver’s side door of the car is 1.1 m high and 0
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

position of centre of mass of door from surface of water

= 10 + 1.1 / 2

= 10.55 m

Pressure on centre of mass

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column

10 ⁵ + hdg

= 10⁵ + 10.55 x 1000 x 9.8

= 2.0339 x 10⁵ Pa

the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface)

= pressure at the centre x area of the door

= .9 x 1.1 x 2.0339 x 10⁵

= 2.01356 x 10⁵ N

pressure centre will be at 10.55 m below the surface.

When the car is filled with air or  it is filled with water , in both the cases pressure centre will lie at the centre of the car .

In a lab, four balls have the same velocities but different masses.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

New Momentum of Ball B=13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mass of Ball A=1kg

Mass of Ball B= 2kg

Mass of Ball C=5kg

Mass of Ball D=7kg

Velocities of A=B=C=D=2.2\frac{m}{s}

Momentum of Ball A=2.2\frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball B=4.4 \frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball C=11\frac{k g m}{s}

Momentum of Ball D=15\frac{k g m}{s}

To Find:

Change in Momentum When of Ball B gets tripled

Solution:

Though all balls have same velocity, thus we get

Velocities of A=B=C=D=2.2\frac{m}{s}

Initial Momentum of Ball B=4.4\frac{k g m}{s}

If the Mass of Ball B gets tripled;

We get New Mass of Ball B=3×Actual Mass of the ball

                                            =3×2=6kg

Thus we get Mass of Ball B=6kg

According to the formula,  

Change in momentum of Ball B \Delta p=m \times \Delta v

Where \Delta p=change in momentum

          m=mass of the ball B

         \Delta v=change in velocity ball B

And \Delta v=v, since all balls, have same velocity

Thus the above equation, changes to

         \Delta p=m \times v

Substitute all the values in the above equation we get

         \Delta p=6 \times 2.2

                     =13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}  

Result:

 Thus the New Momentum of ball B=13.2 \frac{\mathrm{kgm}}{\mathrm{s}}

Which sentence describes Newton's first law?
Marrrta [24]

\Large{\red{\bf{\blue{\dag} Answer:-}}}

Newton's First Law of Motion :

An object stays in rest or in uniform motion unless and until compelled by an external unbalanced force . This is also known as " Law of Inertia " .

Here this statement is best represented by the statement : <em>Unbalanced forces cause an object to move.</em><em> </em>[ option c ]

<u>More</u><u> to</u><u> know</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Newton's 3 laws of motion :-

Newton's First Law of Motion :-

It states that an object stays in rest or in uniform motion unless and until compelled by an external unbalanced force . This is also known as " Law of Inertia " .

Ex - (i) We tend to fall backwards while standing in the bus , when it starts suddenly.

(ii) We tend to fall forward while standing in the bus , when it stops suddenly.

Newton's Second Law of Motion :-

It states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force in the direction of the force . That is ∆p \propto Force .

Ex - (i) When we push car & a truck with same force the car will have Greater acceleration due to less mass . (Imaginary case ).

(ii) We feel easy to push a empty cart than a full cart .

Newton's Third Law of Motion :-

It states that every action has equal and opposite reaction .

Ex - (i) We are able to walk on ground due to Newton's third law of motion .

(ii) When we push wall it also applies equal and opposite force .
