If the impulse is 12 newton . seconds and the force is 5 newtons, how long did the force act?

Physics

2.4s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Impulse = 12Ns

Force = 5N

Unknown:

Time taken for the force to act = ?

Solution:

Impulse is the change in momentum of a body when an external force acts on  body for a period of time.

  Impulse = force x time

  Since the unknown in this problem is time, we make it the subject of the formula;

        Time = \frac{impulse}{force}

 

    Inputting the parameters;

 

         Time taken for force to act = \frac{12}{5} = 2.4s

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ

Explanation:

In order to find the work done by the pull force applied by Karla, we need to can use the formula of work done. This formula tells us that work done on a body is the product of the distance covered by the object with the component of force applied in the direction of that displacement:

W = F.d

W = Fd Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force = 151 N

d = distance covered = 10 m

θ = Angle with horizontal = 20°

Therefore,

W = (151 N)(10 m) Cos 20°

<u>W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ</u>

A small metal object is tied to the end of a string and whirled round a circular path of radius 30cm. The object makes 20 oscill
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is 25.133 rad/s

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is 7.54 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular path, r = 30 cm = 0.3 m

number of revolutions, n = 20

time of motion, t = 5 s

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

\omega = \frac{20 \ rev}{5 \ s} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = \frac{40\pi \ rad}{5 \ s} = 8\pi \ rad/s = 25.133 \ rad/s

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

v = \omega r\\\\v = 25.133 \ rad/s \ \times \ 0.3 \ m\\\\v = 7.54 \ m/s
