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.

A ) v = v o + a t  ( the acceleration will be negative )
9.50 = 16.0 + a * 1.2
a * 1.2 = -16.0 + 9.50
a * 1.2 = - 6.5 
a = - 6.5 : 1.2
a = - 5.4167 m/s²
F = m * a = 950 kg * 5.4167 m/s²
F = 5,145.8 N ( the average force exerted on a car during braking )
b ) d = v o - a t² / 2
d = 16.0 * 1.2 - ( 5.4167 * 1.2² / 2 ) =
= 19.20 - 3.90 = 15.30 m

Five difference between elastic collision and inelastic collision?​
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Elastic Collision

Inelastic Collision

The total kinetic energy is conserved. The total kinetic energy of the bodies at the beginning and the end of the collision is different.

Momentum does not change. Momentum changes.

No conversion of energy takes place. Kinetic energy is changed into other energy such as sound or heat energy.

Highly unlikely in the real world as there is almost always a change in energy. This is the normal form of collision in the real world.

An example of this can be swinging balls or a spacecraft flying near a planet but not getting affected by its gravity in the end.

Jane, looking for tarzan, is running at top speed 5.3 m/s and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle. ho
lutik1710 [3]

v₀ = initial speed as tarzan grabs the vine = 5.3 m/s

v = final speed as the tarzan reach the maximum height = 0 m/s

h = maximum height gained by the tarzan

m = mass of tarzan

using conservation of energy

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy + potential energy

(0.5) m v²₀ = (0.5) m v² + m g h

(0.5) v²₀ = (0.5) v² + g h

(0.5) (5.3)² = (0.5) (0)² + (9.8) h

h = 1.43 m

What landform is created when magma squeezes between rock layers to form a hardened slab of rock?
Zigmanuir [339]
<span>D. sill

A sill forms when hot magma squeezes between layers of rock to form a hardened sheet of rock. A sill is basically a tabular sheet intrusion between old layers of sedimentary rock, volcanic beds, or in the direction of foliation inherent in metamorphic rock. The word sill means a concordant intrusive sheet.</span>
