1 answer:
corrected question:The heavyweight boxing champion of the world punches a sheet of paper in midair, bringing it from rest up to a speed of 26.5 m/s in 0.044 s . The mass of the paper is 0.003 kg. Part A Find the force of the punch on the paper
Answer:
Force=1.8N
Explanation:
Newtons third law states that in every action there is equal and opposite reaction.
The force of the punch will be the force that moves the paper by a speed of 26.5m/s.
m=0.003kg , v=26.5m/s u=0(the paper is punched from rest) t=0.044s
F=1.8N

The ducks' flight path as observed by someone standing on the ground is the sum of the wind velocity and the ducks' velocity relative to the wind:
ducks (relative to wind) + wind (relative to Earth) = ducks (relative to Earth)
or equivalently,
(see the attached graphic)
We have
- ducks (relative to wind) = 7.0 m/s in some direction <em>θ</em> relative to the positive horizontal direction, or
- wind (relative to Earth) = 5.0 m/s due East, or
- ducks (relative to earth) = some speed <em>v</em> due South, or
Then by setting components equal, we have
We only care about the direction for this question, which we get from the first equation:
or approximately 136º or 224º.
Only one of these directions must be correct. Choosing between them is a matter of picking the one that satisfies <em>both</em> equations. We want
which means <em>θ</em> must be between 180º and 360º (since angles in this range have negative sine).
So the ducks must fly (relative to the air) in a direction 224º relative to the positive horizontal direction, or about 44º South of West.
