Answer:

0.5m(v1)²

Explanation:

We know that work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of that object. Hence,

W. D = ΔK. E.

ΔK. E. = K. E.(final) - K. E.(initial)

Initial Kinetic energy, K. E.(initial), is:

K. E.(initial) = 0 (the box was at West)

Final K. E., K. E.(final) is:

K. E.(final) = 0.5*m*(v1)²

Hence, work done on the box will be:

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)² - 0

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)²

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub
aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse (  F \times t). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here, u is initial velocity which is zero.

s= \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }.

Thus, impulse

= F \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }

From Newton`s second law,

F =mg

Therefore, impulse

= mg \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} } = m \sqrt{2gs}

Given,  m = 7.3 kg and s = 2.0 m

Substituting these values, we get

Change in momentum = impulse  

= 7.3 \ kg \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.0 \ m } = 45 .7 \ Ns.

1.4 N is a weight so calculating it's mass
1.4/9.8 = 0.1428 kg
momentum will be 0.1428*44.7 = 6.38 kgm/s

A 1300 kg car traveling at 35 mph rear-ends a 1000 kg car traveling 25 mph. Just after the collision (but before the driver’s sl
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer

given,

before collision

mass of car A = m_a = 1300 kg

velocity of car A = v_a  = 35 mph

mass of car B = m_b= 1000 kg

velocity of car B = v_b  = 25 mph

after collision

V_a = 30 mph

V_b = 31.5 mph

Initial momentum

P_1 = m_av_a + m_b v_b

P_1 = 1300 \times 35+ 1000 \times 25

P_1 =70500 Kg.m/s

final momentum

P_2 = m_aV_a + m_b V_b

P_2 = 1300 \times 30+ 1000 \times 31.5

P_2 =70500 Kg.m/s

here  initial momentum is equal to the final momentum of the car.

hence, momentum is conserved in the collision.

Answer: A

Explanation: How large a parachute is (in other words, the parachute's surface area) affects its air resistance, or drag force. ... In the case of these parachutes, the drag force is opposite to the force of gravity, so the drag force slows the parachutes down as they fall.
