Answer:

force = 11.33 kg-m/s^{2}

Explanation:

given data:

sled mass = 17.0 kg

inital velocity (U) = 4.10 m/s

elapsed time (T) 6.15 s

final velocity (V) = 0

final momentum P2 = 0

Initial momentum of sledge is

P_{1}=mU

P_{1}= 17.0 * 4.10 = 69.7 kg- m/s

from newton second law of motion

F=\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

F = \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{T}

Kgm/s^2

F = \frac{69.7-0}{6.15}= 11.33[tex]kg-m/s^{2}[/tex]

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 14 m/s in a period of 1 s. What is your acceleration?
klasskru [66]
A = delta v over delta t delta v is calculated with final velocity less initial velocity so delta v is 14 - 6 that is 8m/s and delta t is calculated with final time less initial time as initial always is 0 then is 1 - 0 that is 1 then a = 8m/s over 1 that is 8 then the acceleration is 8m/s^2 (remember that is squared.)

A novelty golf ball of mass m is launched with an initial velocity v0 = (25i + 13j) m/s and then follows a parabolic trajectory.
SVEN [57.7K]

Explanation:

(a)

The initial vertical velocity is 13 m/s.  At the maximum height, the vertical velocity is 0 m/s.

v = at + v₀

0 = (-9.8) t + 13

t ≈ 1.33 s

(b)

Immediately prior to the explosion, the ball is at the maximum height.  Here, the vertical velocity is 0 m/s, and the horizontal velocity is constant at 25 m/s.

v = √(vx² + vy²)

v = √(25² + 0²)

v = 25 m/s

(c)

Momentum is conserved before and after the explosion.

In the x direction:

m vx = ma vax + mb vbx

m (25) = (⅓ m) (0) + (⅔ m) (vbx)

25m = (⅔ m) (vbx)

25 = ⅔ vbx

vbx = 37.5 m/s

And in the y direction:

m vy = ma vay + mb vby

m (0) = (⅓ m) (0) + (⅔ m) (vby)

0 = (⅔ m) (vby)

vby = 0 m/s

Since the vertical velocity hasn't changed, and since Fragment B lands at the same height it was launched from, it will have a vertical velocity equal in magnitude and opposite in direction as its initial velocity.

vy = -13 m/s

And the horizontal velocity will stay constant.

vx = 37.5 m/s

The velocity vector is (37.5 i - 13 j) m/s.  The magnitude is:

v = √(vx² + vy²)

v = √(37.5² + (-13)²)

v ≈ 39.7 m/s

What happens when the fuel in a car engine combustion?​
Trava [24]

In a spark ignition engine, the fuel is mixed with air and then inducted into the cylinder during the intake process. After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.

Which of the following is NOT a factor that controls temperature?
meriva

The answer for the above statement is:

a. longitude

Explanation:

Longitude is that the measure of however way a definite place is found a way west and east from the longitude. Great circle determines the geographical zone of a selected location. Whereas latitude affects the temperature of the situation, longitude doesn't do a lot to have an effect on the temperature.
