Answer:

v2 = 27.3m/s

Explanation:

Assuming forward as positive.

Mass = m1 = 64kg

Let v be the common velocity of the student and the skateboard.

mass of skateboard = m2 = 5.94kg

v = 1.4m/s

Since the skateboard and the student are initially moving together at the same velocity their momentum together is

(m1 + m2)v

Let the final velocity of the student be v1 and the final velocity of the skateboard be v2

v1 = – 1.0m/s (falls backwards that's why the velocity is negative since we are assuming forward as positive)

Then from conservation of momentum, momentum before is equal to momentum after.

(m1 + m2)v = m1v1 + m2v2

m2v2= (m1 + m2)v – m1v1

v2 = ( (m1 + m2)v – m1v1)/m2

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 – 64×(-1.0))/5.94

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 + 64×1.0)/5.94

v2 = 27.3m/s

A car of mass 2400kg moving at 20 m/s slams into a cement wall and comes to a halt?
Brut [27]

Impulse = change in momentum

The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)

Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s

To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .

The scale would need 10 aluminum cubes on one side. Figure out how many paper clips would be needed on the other side to balance this. You have to use more than one aluminum cube because you need to have enough cubes so that you get a whole number mass. 10 cubes gives you a total mass of 27 g for the aluminum.

Answer:

r=2.4m

Explanation:

We have to use the centripetal force  equation

Fc=\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

we  need the radious so we have to isolate "r" and we get

r=\frac{mv^{2} }{Fc}

replacing m=65 kg, v= 4.1 m/s and Fc=455N we get

r=\frac{65*4.1^{2} }{455}

r=2.4m

The radius of the amusement park chamber is 2.4m
