A football is thrown due north across a 40 meter river and it takes 2 seconds to cover that distance.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

I. Speed = 20m/s

II. Velocity = 20m/s due North.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 40m

Time = 2secs

To find the speed;

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Speed = \frac{40}{2}$

Speed = 20m/s.

In physics, we use the same formula for calculating speed and velocity. The only difference is that speed is a scalar quantity and as such has magnitude but no direction while velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

$Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

Therefore, the velocity is 20m/s due North.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

d. 0.3 N

Explanation:

Force: This is defined as the product of mass of a body and its acceleration.

The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically Force can be represented as,

F = ma .................. Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

also

a = (v-u)/t............... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: v = 0.60 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( From rest), t= 0.16 s.

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0.60-0)/0.16

a = 3.75 m/s²

Also given: m = 80 g = 0.08 kg.

Substitute into equation 1,

F = 0.08(3.75)

F = 0.3 N.

Hence he average force = 0.3 N

The right option is d. 0.3 N

13. Describe the molecules of a solid in terms of kinetic energy.

Y_Kistochka [10]

The kinetic molecular theory of matter states that: ... Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

A cart of mass m = 0.12 kg moves with a speed v = 0.45 m/s on a frictionless air track and collides with an identical cart that

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0.006075Joules

Explanation:

The final kinetic energy of the system is expressed as;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v²

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two bodies

v is the final velocity of the bodies after collision

get the final velocity using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

0.12(0.45) + 0/12(0) = (0.12+0.12)v

0.054 = 0.24v

v = 0.054/0.24

v = 0.225m/s

Get the final kinetic energy;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v

KE = 1/2(0.12+0.12)(0.225)²

KE = 1/2(0.24)(0.050625)

KE = 0.12*0.050625

KE = 0.006075Joules

Hence the final kinetic energy of the system is 0.006075Joules
