Answer:

6 N

Explanation:

\dfrac{m}{t} = Mass flow rate = 1 kg/s

v = Final velocity = 6 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Force is obtained when we divide change in momentum by time

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{m}{t}(v-u)\\\Rightarrow F=1(6-0)\\\Rightarrow F=6\ N

The force the person exert on the extinguisher in order to prevent it from accelerating is 6 N

Suppose I have a vector that is 7 units long and that makes an angle of +30 degrees from the positive x-axis. I want to add to t
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

Explanation:

We have given first vector which has length of 7 units and makes an angle of 30° with positive x-axis

So x component of the vector =7cos30^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06

y component of the vector =7sin30^{\circ}=7\times 0.5=3.5

So vector will be 6.06i+3.5j

Now other vector of length of 7 units and makes an angle of 120° with positive x-axis

So x component of vector  =7cos120^{\circ}=7\times -0.5=-3.5i

y component of the vector =7sin120^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06j

Now sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

              F = G m₁ M / r²

              W = ∫ F. dr

              W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

             W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

                 

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

           W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

            W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

             W = mg

             m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

            m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

            g_moom = 165 32/1000

            .g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system  

           W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

           W_capsule = 454 N

           W = m_capsule g

           m_capsule = W / g

           m = 454 /9.8

           m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

          W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327   7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

          W = 1,307 10⁶ J

A 45-gram object that has a volume of 9 mL has a density of
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

<h2>  The answer is </h2><h2>a. 5g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

mass m= 45g

volume v= 9mL

we know that density=m/v

substituting our given data we have

density=\frac{45}{9} =5g/mL

What is Density?

The Density of a body can be defined as the ratio of mass to volume,

or

Density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. The formula for density is Density= \frac{mass}{volume},

where d is density,

M is mass, and

V is volume.

Density is commonly expressed in units of grams per cubic centimetre.
