A student must determine the relationship between the inertial mass of an object, the net force exerted on the object, and the o

bject’s acceleration. The student uses the following procedure. The object is known to have an inertial mass of 1.0kg .
Step 1: Place the object on a horizontal surface such that frictional forces can be considered to be negligible.

Step 2: Attach a force probe to the object.

Step 3: Hang a motion detector above the object so that the front of the motion detector is pointed toward the object and is perpendicular to the direction that the object can travel along the surface.

Step 4: Use the force probe to pull the object across the horizontal surface with a constant force as the force probe measures force exerted on the object. At the same time, use the motion detector to record the velocity of the object as a function of time.

Step 5: Repeat the experiment so that the object is pulled with a different constant force.

Can the student determine the relationship using this experimental procedure?

Answer choices:

A) Yes, because Newton’s second law of motion must be used to determine the acceleration of the object.

B) Yes, because the net force exerted on the object and its change in velocity per unit of time are measured.

C) No, because the motion detector should be oriented so that the object moves parallel to the line along which the front of the motion detector is aimed.

D) No, because knowing the net force exerted on the object and its change in velocity per unit of time is not sufficient to determine the relationship.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In order to obtain data about the object’s velocity as a function of time, the object must move either toward or away from the motion detector.

NEED ASAP PLEASE
miskamm [114]

Given that the block have two applied masses 250 g at East and 100 g at South. In order to make a situation in which block moves towards point A, we have to apply minimum number of masses to the blocks. In order to prevent block moving toward East, we have to apply a mass at West, equal to the magnitude of mass at East but opposite in direction. Therefore, mass of 250 g at West is the required additional mass that has to be added. There is already 100 g of mass acting at South, that will attract block towards South or point A. No need to add further mass in North-South direction.

A cat with a mass of 5.00 kg pushes on a 25.0 kg desk with a force of 50.0N to jump off. What is the force on the desk?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

First of all the formula is F= uR,( force= static friction× reaction)

mass= 5+25=30

F= 50

R= mg(30×10)=300

u= ?

F=UR

u= F/R

u= 50/300=0.17N

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha
Setler [38]
When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

Otrada [13]

According to the given statement Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

<h3>What is collision and momentum?</h3>

The unit of momentum is kg ms -1. Momentum is a vector parameter that is influenced by the object's direction. During collisions involving objects, momentum is a relevant concept. The final velocity before a collision between two objects equals the total motion after the impact (in the absence of external forces).

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

From conservation of momentum

Initial momentum = final momentum

m u +M U =(m+M) V

2000×25 i^ +1500×30 j^​ =(2000+1500) V

V = 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

Final velocity when they stick together is 8.735i^ + 11.25j^​

The complete question is -

A 2000 kg truck is moving eastward at 25 m/s. it collides inelastically with a 1500 kg truck traveling southward at 30 m/s. they collide at the intersection. Find the direction and magnitude of velocity of the wreckage after the collision, assuming the vehicles stick together after the collision.
