Answer:

<h2>15.25 N</h2>

Explanation:

       A force of 55\text{ }N is acting on a wagon along the road. The wagon weights 7.5\text{ }kg. Acceleration of the wagon is given as 5.3\text{ }\frac{m}{s^{2}}.

       Consider the block as the system, the forces acting are Frictional force, Gravitational force, Normal reaction and External force applied by us.

       Gravitational Force and Normal Reaction cancel out each other.

       Net External Force = Mass of system/wagon \times Acceleration of wagon

       F_{ext}-F_{friction}=(7.5\text{ }kg)\times(5.3\text{ }\frac{m}{s^{2}})=39.75\text{ }N\\55\text{ }N-F_{friction}=39.75\text{ }N\\F_{friction}=15.25\text{ }N

F_{friction} has a negative sign because it opposes the motion of the wagon.

∴ Frictional Force = 15.25 N

A car with a momentum of 3,200 kg-m/s moves foward at a rate of 2 m/s. What is the mass of the vehicle?
natulia [17]

Answer:

1600 kg

Explanation:

use the formula p=mv. p=3200, v=2. Plug in and rearrange.

3200=(m)(2)

m= 3200/2

m=1600

A cue ball with mass 170g hits a stationary number 8 ball, which has mass 160g. The cue ball
forsale [732]

Answer:

0.49 m/s

Explanation:

The law of conservation of linear momentum states that the sum of momentum in a system before and after collision are same. Momentum is a product of mass and velocity of an object hence in this case

m_cu_c+m_8u_8=m_cv_u+m_8v_8

Where m represent mass, u and v represent the initial and final velocities respectively, subscripts c and 8 represent cue ball and number 8 ball respectively.

Since number 8 ball is initially at rest, its initial velocity is zero. Replacing mass of cue ball with 170 g while mass of number 8 ball with 160g, then taking final velocity of cue ball as 0.2 m/s and final velocity of 8 ball as 0.3 m/s then we get

170u_c+160*0=170*0.2+170*0.3\\u_c\approx 0.49 m/s
