A textbook would hit the ground first


Factors:

-Textbook weighs most

-Pillow is flat and fluffy not very aerodynamic) also is very light

-Paper airplane will glide to the ground do to its wings and will hit the ground last

A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s towards an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling on the opposite direction on t
vladimir1956 [14]
Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg

Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s

mass of orange train = 200 kg

Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)

To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which

The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum


Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,

(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s

A 56.6-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.517 and 0.260,
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnitude of frictional force = μ mg

μ is either static or kinetic friction.

To start the crate moving , static friction is calculated .

a ) To start crate moving , force required = μ mg where μ is coefficient of static friction .

force required =.517 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 286.76  N .

b ) to  slide the crate across the dock at a constant speed , force required

= μ mg where μ is coefficient of kinetic  friction , where μ is kinetic friction

= .26 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 144.21 N .

Please answer D in the image with an explanation
puteri [66]

Answer:

The force is 274 N.

Explanation:

In figure 2:

(d) Let the tension in the string is T.

According to the Newton's second law,

Net force = mass x acceleration

Apply for 200N.

T - 200 sin 35 =\frac{200}{9.8}\times a \\T - 114.7 = 20.4 a..... (1)\\220 - T = \frac{220}{9.8}\times a\\220 - T = 22.45 a..... (2)\\Adding both the equations\\334.7 = 42.85 aa =7.81 m/s^{2}

Now put in (1)

T - 114.7 = 20.4 x 7.81

T = 274 N

What is the Potential energy of a magnetic generator
sergiy2304 [10]

Well potential energy is energy possessed by an object of by the position it's in. For example when you hold back a bow and arrow, but before you shoot it you are containing energy by holding the arrow back. So when you start the magnetic generator (pull or turn to start it) before using it for its purpose that is potential energy. I hope this helps.
