Kids are pelting a window with snowballs. On average, two snowballs of roughly 300-g mass hit the window each second, moving hor

izontally at some 10 m/s. The snowballs drop vertically to the ground after hitting the window.
Required:
Estimate the average force exerted on the window.

Answer:

The average force exerted on the window due to two snowballs is 6 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of snowballs m = 300 \times 10^{-3} Kg

Velocity of snowball v = 10 \frac{m}{s}

For finding the average force,

Force is equal to the change in momentum,

   F = \frac{dP}{dt}

Here, final velocity is zero so we write,

 F = \frac{mv}{1}

Where dt = 1 sec

 F = 300 \times 10^{-30} \times 10

F = 3 N

Above value of force is due to one ball, but here given in question there are two ball,

F = 3 \times 2

F = 6 N

Therefore, the average force exerted on the window due to two snowballs is 6 N

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=0.154kg

Explanation:

(x*L)+(0.5kg*4200*50)+(x*4200*(-50)=0

(x*333 000J/kg*c)+(0.5kg*4200J/kg*C*(-40C))+(x*4200J/kg*C*50C)=0

In a region of space where gravitational forces can be neglected, a sphere is accelerated by a uniform light beam of intensity 8
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration we must use Newton's second law

      F = m a

      a = F / m

To calculate the force we use the defined pressure and the radiation pressure for an absorbent surface

       P = I / c        absorbent surface

       P = F / A

       F / A = I / c

       F = I A / c

The area of ​​area of ​​a circle is

      A = π r²

We replace

     F = I π r² / c

Let's calculate

     F = 8.0 10⁻³ π (1.0 10⁻⁶)²/3 10⁸

     F = 8.375 10⁻²³ N

Density is

      ρ = m / V

      m = ρ V

      m = ρ (4/3 π r³)

      m = 4500 (4/3 π (1 10⁻⁶)³)

      m = 1,885 10⁻¹⁴ kg

Let's calculate the acceleration

     a = 8.375 10⁻²³ / 1.885 10⁻¹⁴

     a = 4.44 10⁻⁹ m/s²               absorbent surface

The correct answer is B

Read the paragraph below and answer the question that follows:

B. Helium because it is constantly being made in the sun

Explanation:

From the given paragraph, we can conclude that helium is the most common element in a star such as the sun because it is constantly being made.

In the nuclear fusion process that results in the production of helium, hydrogen nuclei are the reactants and helium is the product.

  • since the reactants are constantly being used in the core of the sun, this suggests that the products must be more.
  • The reaction requires a high temperature and pressure to initiate.
  • It is a series of chain reaction that uses a fuel of hydrogen to produce helium.
