Answer:

Mass of the box is 25kg

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion

Force= mass. acceleration

With the symbol

F=m.a

m=F/a m=(50N)/(2m/s²)

m=25kg

A rubber bullet of mass m=0.025\,\mathrm{kg}m=0.025kg traveling at velocity v_0 = 50\,\mathrm{m/s}v 0 =50m/s hits an iron bloc

Pavel [41]

Answer: 0.001 m

Explanation:

In order to get the máximum height reached by the iron block, we can use the energy conservation principle, as all the kinetic energy impressed upon the iron blck by the rubber bullet during the collision, becomes gravitational potential energy, as follows:

½ m v2 = m. g. h (1)

We don´t know the value of v, but if we look to the collision, and we asume no external forces act during it, the total momentum must be conserved.

The initial momentum, as the block is at rest, is just the one due to the rubber bullet:

P1 = mb . vb = 0.025 kg. 50 m/s = 1.25 kg. m/s

The final momemtum, is just the sum of the one due to the bullet (after being bounced back) and the one for the iron block:

P2 = mb . vfb + mib . vib= 0.025 Kg. (-35 m/s) + 15 Kg.vib

As we have already said, P1 = P2, so we can write the following equation:

0.025 Kg. (-35 m/s) + 15 Kg. vib = 1.25 Kg. m/s.

Solving for vib, we have:

vib = 0.14 m/s

Now, we can replace this value in the equation (1) above:

½ . 15 Kg. (0.14)2 (m/s)2 = 15 Kg. 9.8 m/s2. H

Solving for H, we have:

H = 0.001 m

Which of Newton's laws explains why satellites need very little fuel to stay in oribit?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Sattelites don't need any fuel to stay in orbit. The applicable law is...."objects in motion tend to stay in motion". Having reached orbital velocity, any such object is essentially "falling" around the earth. Since there is no (or at least very little) friction in the vacuum of space, the object does not slow.... It simply continues.

Sattelites in "low" earth orbit do encounter some friction from the very thin upper atmosphere, and they will eventually "decay".

How can a mass be hot enough to flow but still act like a solid

Lunna [17]

The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't
