What do we call it when two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time?​

Physics
1 answer:
ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It is called a collision.

Explanation:

When two objects bump into each other, this is called a collision. In physics, a collision doesn't have to involve an accident (like two cars crashing into each other), but can be any event where two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time.

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, straps on his skis and starts down a 50-m-high, 20 frictionless slope. A strong headwind exerts a hori
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sam mass=75kg

Height is 50m

20° frictionless slope

Horizontal force on Sam is 200N

According to the work energy theorem, the net work done on Sam will be equal to his change in kinetic energy.

Therefore

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

Note initial the body was at rest at top of the slope.

Then, ∆K.E is K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

K.E Is given as ½mv²

Since initial velocity is zero then, K.E(initial ) is zero

Therefore, ∆K.E=½mVf²

Wg is work done by gravity and it is given by using P.E formulas

Wg=mgh

Wg=75×9.8×50

Wg=36750J

Ww is work done by wind and it's is given by using formulae for work

Work=force × distance

Ww=horizontal force × horizontal distance

Using Trig.

TanX=opposite/adjacent

Tan20=h/x

x=h/tan20

x=50/tan20

x=137.37m

Then,

Ww=F×x

Ww=200×137.37

We=27474J

Now applying the formula

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

36750 - 27474 =½×75×Vf²

9276=37.5Vf²

Vf²=9275/37.5

Vf²= 247.36

Vf=√247.36

Vf=15.73m/s

What is the change in air pressure over a given distance called?.
emmainna [20.7K]
The change in pressure measured across a given distance called a Pressure Gradient. The pressure gradient creates a net force that is directed from higher to lower pressure and is called the Pressure Gradient Force. ... As air increases in velocity, it is deflected by the Coriolis Force.
