The following instructions are my idea.

P=m*v

1. notice that the to masses move in opposite directions -> one has positive and one has negative speed

2. P1=4*(-4)=-16[kg*m/s]
P2=3*8=24[kg*m/s]
3. Add the momentums:

P1+P2=-16+24=8[kg*m/s]

The total momentum of mass equals 8 kg*m/s

Engineers at the Space Centre must determine the net force needed for a rockets engine to achieve an acceleration of 70 m/s2. As
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

3,150,000N

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

F = mass * acceleration

Given

Mass = 45000kg

acceleration = 70m/s^2

Substitute

F = 45000 * 70

F = 3,150,000N

Hence the force required to be produced by the rocket engines is 3,150,000N

navik [9.2K]

An advertisement for an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) claims that the ATV can climb inclined slopes of 35°. The minimum coefficient of static friction needed for this claim to be possible is 0.7

In an inclined plane, the coefficient of static friction is the angle at which an object slide over another.  

As the angle rises, the gravitational force component surpasses the static friction force, as such, the object begins to slide.

Using the Newton second law;

\sum F_x = \sum F_y = 0

\mathbf{mg sin \theta -f_s= N-mgcos \theta = 0 }

  • So; On the L.H.S

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =f_s}

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =\mu_s N}

  • On the R.H.S

N = mg cos θ

Equating both force component together, we have:

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =\mu_s \ mg \ cos \theta}

\mathbf{sin \theta =\mu_s \ \ cos \theta}

\mathbf{\mu_s = \dfrac{sin \theta }{ cos \theta}}

From trigonometry rule:

\mathbf{tan \theta= \dfrac{sin \theta }{ cos \theta}}

∴

\mathbf{\mu_s =\tan \theta}}

\mathbf{\mu_s =\tan 35^0}}

\mathbf{\mu_s = 0.700}}

Therefore, we can conclude that the minimum coefficient of static friction needed for this claim to be possible is 0.7

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building 112 feet tall with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. The
nordsb [41]

Answer:

t=6.96s

Explanation:

From this exercise, our knowable variables are <u>hight and initial velocity </u>

v_{oy}=96ft/s

y_{o}=112ft

To find how much time does the <u>ball strike the ground</u>, we need to know that the final position of the ball is y=0ft

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

0=112ft+(96ft/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(32.2ft/s^{2})t^{2}

Solving for t using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

a=-\frac{1}{2} (32.2)\\b=96\\c=112

t=-0.999s or t=6.96s

<u><em>Since time can't be negative the answer is t=6.96s</em></u>
