Which has more momentum, a speeding baseball or an ocean liner at rest in a harbor?

1 answer:

4 0

Momentum is (mass) times (speed), so nothing that is at rest has any momentum. If the battleship is at rest, then a mosquito in flight, a leaf falling from a tree, and your speedy baseball each have more momentum than the ship has.

A 7 kg ball is moving at a constant speed of 5 m/s. A force of 300 N is applied to the ball for 4 s. The new speed of the ball i

olasank [31]

Answer:

The new speed of the ball is 176.43 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the ball, m = 7 kg

initial speed of the ball, u = 5 m/s

applied force, F = 300 N

time of force action on the ball, t = 4 s

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

$F = ma = \frac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\m(v-u) = Ft\\\\v-u = \frac{Ft}{m}\\\\v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u$

where;

v is new speed of the ball

$v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u\\\\v =\frac{300*4}{7} + 5\\\\v = 176.43 \ m/s$

Therefore, the new speed of the ball is 176.43 m/s

Question 7 of 25

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂

2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg

Explanation:

A balanced chemical equation is a chemical equation that have an equal number of elements of each type on both sides of the equation

Among the given chemical reactions, we have;

2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂

In the above reaction;

The number of phosphorus, P, on either side of the equation = 2

The number of bromine atoms, Br, on either side of the equation = 6

The number of chlorine atoms, Cl, on either side of the equation = 6

Therefore, the number of elements in the reactant side and products side of the reaction are equal and the reaction is balanced

The second balanced chemical reaction is 2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg

In the above reaction, there are two sodium atoms, Na, one magnesium atom and two chlorine atoms on both sides of the reaction, therefore, the reaction is balanced

A uniform disk of mass M = 4.9 kg has a radius of 0.12 m and is pivoted so that it rotates freely about its axis. A string wrapp

AlekseyPX

Answer:

(A) 2.4 N-m

(B) $0.035kgm^2$

(D) 1741.13 J

(E) 725.481 rad

Explanation:

We have given mass of the disk m = 4.9 kg

Radius r = 0.12 m, that is distance = 0.12 m

Force F = 20 N

(a) Torque is equal to product of force and distance

So torque $\tau =Fr$ , here F is force and r is distance

So $\tau =20\times 0.12=2.4Nm$

(B) Moment of inertia is equal to $I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2$

So $I=\frac{1}{2}\times 4.9\times 0.12^2=0.035kgm^2$

Torque is equal to $\tau =I\alpha$

So angular acceleration $\alpha =\frac{\tau }{I}=\frac{2.4}{0.035}=68.571rad/sec^2$

So initial angular speed $\omega _{0}=0rad/sec$

Time t = 4.6 sec

From first equation of motion we know that $\omega =\omega _0+\alpha t$

So $\omega =0+68.571\times 4.6=315.426rad/sec$

(D) Kinetic energy is equal to $KE=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.035\times 315.426^2=1741.13J$

(E) From second equation of motion

$\Theta =\omega _0t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2=0\times 4.6+\frac{1}{2}\times 68.571\times 4.6^2=725.481rad$
