Answer:Momentum

Explanation:

Product of an object mass and velocity is called Momentum. Basically momentum is the measure of mass in motion . More is the mass more will be the momentum and similar applies for velocity.

For example a bus moving with low velocity can have a same momentum as that of a bullet moving with a very high velocity

Momentum is denoted by Symbol P

\vec{P}=m\vec{v}

A plane flies from base camp to lake a, 200 km away in the direction 20.0° north of east. after dropping off supplies it flies t
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Distance of lake a is 200 km at 20 degree north of east

distance between lake a and b is 230 km at 30 degree west of north

now the distance between base and lake b is given as

d = d_1 + d_2

given that

d_1 = 200 cos20 i + 200 sin20 j

d_1 = 187.94 i + 68.4 j

d_2 = -230 sin30 i + 230 cos30 j

d_2 = -115 i + 199.2 j

now the total distance is

d = (187.94 - 115)i + (199.2 + 68.4)j

d = 72.94 i + 267.6 j

now the magnitude of the distance is given as

d = \sqrt{72.94^2 + 267.6^2}

d = 277.4

also the direction is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{267.6}{72.94}

\theta = 74.7 degree

<em>so it is 277.4 km at 74.7 degree North of East</em>

Car a runs a red light and broadsides car b, which is stopped and waiting to make a left turn. car a has a mass of 1,800kg. car
frez [133]

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

<span>vA = 13.02 m/s</span>

A 5.0-kg centrifuge takes 95 s to spin up from rest to its final angular speed with constant angular acceleration. A point locat
stellarik [79]

Answer:

(a) 17.37 rad/s^2

(b) 12479

Explanation:

t = 95 s, r = 6 cm = 0.06 m, v = 99 m/s, w0 = 0

w = v / r = 99 / 0.06 = 1650 rad/s

(a) Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

w = w0 + α t

1650 = 0 + α x 95

α = 17.37 rad/s^2

(b) Let θ be the angular displacement

Use third equation of motion for rotational motion

w^2 = w0^2 + 2 α θ

1650^2 = 0 + 2 x 17.37 x θ

θ = 78367.87 rad

number of revolutions, n = θ / 2 π

n = 78367.87 / ( 2 x 3.14)

n = 12478.9 ≈ 12479

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355 - L cans per min
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. To find the mass flow rate.

We use= 220 x 0.355/ 60

= 1.3kg/s

B. Volume flowrate is = mass flowrate / density

But density is 1000kg/m³

= 1.3kg/s/ 1000kg/m³

= 0.0013m³/s

C. Flow speead at 1

= 0.0013m³/s / (2 x 10-2m)²

= 6.5m/s

D.flow speed at 2

0.0013m³/s / (8x 10-2m)²

=1.63m/s

E. Gauge pressure at point 1

= 152+ 1/1000 ( 1.63)²- 6.5² + 1000( 9.8) ( 0-1.35)

= 119kpa
