Answer:

Option C

16 Km/h

Explanation:

Dana is moving in opposite direction compared to the train.If we denote w-velocity of train with respect to ground and u- velocity of passenger with respect to train and v-velocity of passenger we can using classical mechanics claim that v = w-u

v=20-4=16 km/h

Let w(x)=3x-7.If w(x)=14, find x
dlinn [17]

Answer:

7

Explanation:

We are given:

    w(x) = 3x   -   7

     w(x)  = 14

The problem here entails us to solve for x;

To solve for x; equate the two expressions:

         

          3x  - 7  = 14

           3x  = 14 + 7

           3x  = 21  

             x = 7

So the value of x  = 7

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

What is the acceleration of the box?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a=4,32m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 - F2

= 12-1.2

= 10.8N

m=2.5kg

Fnet =ma

10.8=2.5a then divide both sides by 2.5 to get acceleration
