Answer:

9.6 Ns

Explanation:

Note: From newton's second law of motion,

Impulse = change in momentum

I = m(v-u).................. Equation 1

Where I = impulse, m = mass of the ball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity.

Given: m = 2.4 kg, v = 2.5 m/s, u = -1.5 m/s (rebounds)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 2.4[2.5-(-1.5)]

I = 2.4(2.5+1.5)

I = 2.4(4)

I = 9.6 Ns

A bell is ringing inside of a sealed glass jar that is connected to a vacuum pump. Initially, the jar is filled with air. What d
Mila [183]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Sound is a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a material medium for propagation. This means that sound waves must be carried in air. If there are no air molecules, sound waves can not travel.

When air is gradually removed from the jar by the pump, the sound intensity from the bell gradually decreases owing to the fact that air which is the medium through which sound waves are propagated is gradually being removed from the jar.

A force of 1 newton will cause a mass of 1 kg to have an acceleration of 1 m/s^2. If a force of 5 newtons is applied to a mass o
nignag [31]

For any force and any mass, the acceleration is always

(the strength of the force) divided by (the mass) .

If a force of 5 newtons is applied to a mass of 5 kg, the acceleration will be

(5 Newtons) / (5 kg) = <em>1 m/s²</em>

Potential energy calculation - MxGxH. Gravity equals 10. How much
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Ep = 0.6095 [J]

Explanation:

As defined in the problem statement, potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height. But first we must convert all the values given to measures of the international system (SI)

g = gravity = 10 [m/s^2]

h = elevation = 40 [ft] = 12.19 [m]

m = mass = 5 [g] = 0.005 [kg]

Ep = potential energy [J]

Ep = 0.005*10*12.19 = 0.6095 [J]
