Romashka [77]3 years ago

Based on increasing momentum, the given equations are ranked as following,

1. A 1200 kg car going 15 m/s with momentum 18000  kgm/s.

2. A 15 kg meteor going at the speed of 1000 m/s with momentum 15000 kgm/s.

3. A 100 kg person running at 5 m/s with momentum 500 kgm/s.

4. A 10,000 kg train car at rest with zero momentum.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Momentum is the mass in motion i.e. an object is said to have momentum when it is in motion. The momentum of the object depends upon the mass and the velocity of the object. It is vector quantity since it has both direction and magnitude. The momentum can be evaluated using the formula,

\vec{p}=m \times \vec{v}

where \vec{p} is the momentum,m is the mass and \vec{v} is the velocity of the object

Momentum of given cases,

A) A train car at rest: The momentum of an object at rest is always 0.

B) A 100kg person running at 5 m/s: \vec{p}=m \times \vec{v}=100\ \mathrm{kg} \times 5\ \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}=500\ \mathrm{kgm} / \mathrm{s}

Therefore, momentum of the person is 500 kgm/s.

C) A 1200kg car going at 15m/s: \vec{p}=m \times \vec{v}=1200\ \mathrm{kg} \times 15 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{s}}=18000\ \mathrm{kgm} / \mathrm{s}  

Therefore, momentum of the person is 18000 kgm/s.

D) A 15 kg meteor going at the speed of 1000m/s:

\vec{p}=m \times \vec{v}^=15\ \mathrm{kg} \times 1000\ \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} =15000\ \mathrm{kgm} / \mathrm{s}

Therefore, momentum of the meteor is 15000 kgm/s.

The force of repulsion that two like charges exert on each other 5N. what will be if the distance between the charge is decrease
GalinKa [24]

The new force becomes One Ninth (1/9) of the original force.

The force between two point charges (let's say \mathrm{Q} 1$ and $\mathrm{Q} 2$ ) is given by the following formula:

Force $=k \times Q 1 \times Q 2$divided by ( $r$ squared)

Here r is the distance.

If we multiply r by three then after squaring it will become $9 \times r$ squared.

Let's rewrite the formula and call it new Force:

New Force =\mathrm{K} \times \mathrm{Q} 1 \times \mathrm{Q} 2 divided by $(9 \times \mathrm{r}$ squared )

Now just separate the 9 :

New Force $=1 / 9(\mathrm{~K} \times \mathrm{Q} 1 \times \mathrm{Q} 2$divided by $(\mathrm{r}$ Squared ))

New Force $=1 / 9$ (Force)

So turns out that the new force becomes One Ninth (1/9) of the original force.

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to define force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

Two massless bags contain identical bricks, each brick having a mass M. Initially, each bag contains four bricks, and the bags m
stepladder [879]

Answer: F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

Where:

F is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

G is the universal gravitation constant.

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both bodies.

r is the distance between both bodies

In this case we have two situations:

1) Two bags with masses 4M and 4M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{1} on each other:

F_{1}=G\frac{(4M)(4M)}{r^2}   (1)

F_{1}=G\frac{16M^2}{r^2}   (2)

F_{1}=16\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (3)

2) Two bags with masses 2M and 6M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{2} on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):

F_{2}=G\frac{(2M)(6M)}{r^2}   (4)

F_{2}=G\frac{12M^2}{r^2}   (5)

F_{2}=12\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (6)

Now, if we isolate \frac{GM^2}{r^2} from (3):

\frac{F_{1}}{16}=\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (7)

Substituting \frac{GM^2}{r^2}  found in (7) in (6):

F_{2}=12(\frac{F_{1}}{16})   (8)

F_{2}=\frac{12}{16}F_{1}   (9)

Simplifying, we finally get the expression for F_{2}  in terms of F_{1} :

F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}
