A halfback on an apparent breakaway for a touchdown is tackled from behind. If the halfback has a mass of 98 kg and was moving a

t 4.2 m/s when he was tackled by an 85 kg cornerback running at 5.5 m/s in the same direction, what was their mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle? m/s

Answer:

The mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle is 4.80 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of halfback = 98 kg

Speed of halfback= 4.2 m/s

Mass of corner back = 85 kg

Speed of corner back = 5.5 m/s

We need to calculate their mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle

Using conservation of momentum

m_{h}v_{h}+m_{c}v_{c}=m_{h+c}v_{h+c}

Where, m_{h}= mass of halfback

m_{c}=mass of corner back

v_{h}= velocity of halfback

v_{c}= velocity of corner back

Put the value into the formula

98\times4.2+85\times5.5=(98+85)\times v

v=\dfrac{98\times4.2+85\times5.5}{98+85}

v=4.80\ m/s

Hence, The mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle is 4.80 m/s

A container of gas molecules is at a pressure of 2 atm and has amass density of 1.7 grams per liter. All of the molecules in the
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The speed of nitrogen molecule is 1.87 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure = 2 atm

Density = 1.7 grams/liter

Atomic weight = 28 grams

We need to calculate the temperature

Using formula of idea gas

PV=nRT

P=\dfrac{WRT}{VM}

P=\dfrac{\rho RT}{M}

T=\dfrac{PM}{\rho R}

Put the value into the formula

T=\dfrac{2\times28}{1.7\times0.0821}

T=401.2\ K

We need to calculate the speed of nitrogen molecule

Using formula of RMS speed

V_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}}

V_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times0.0821\times401.2}{28}}

V_{rms}=1.87\ m/s

Hence, The speed of nitrogen molecule is 1.87 m/s.
