A student starts a food fight by throwing a 0.5 kg burrito at some girl he likes. He throws it kind-of hard so he accelerates it

at 3 m/s2. How much force did this take?
Physics
1 answer:
Elenna [48]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

m = mass of burrito thrown by the student = 0.5 kg

a = acceleration of the burrito thrown by the student = 3 m/s²

F = force applied by the student on the burrito = ?

According to newton's second law , the net force on an object is the product of its mass and acceleration. it is given as

F = ma

inserting the values

F = (0.5) (3)

F = 1.5 N

hence the net force on the burrito comes out to be 1.5 N

A biker first accelerates from 0.0 m/s to 6.0 m/s in 6 s, then continues at this speed for 5 s. What is the total distance trave
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

48m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Final velocity = 6m/s

Time, t = 6 secs

Time, T2 = 5 secs

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity  -  initial \; velocity}{time}

Substituting into the equation;

a = \frac{6 - 0}{6}

a = \frac{6}{6}

Acceleration, a = 1m/s²

<u>To find the distance covered in the first phase;</u>

<em>Solving for distance, we would use the second equation of motion;</em>

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

<em>Substituting the values into the equation;</em>

S = 0(6) + \frac {1}{2}*1*(6)^{2}

S = 0 + \frac {1}{2}*1*36

S = 0.5 *36

Distance, S1 = 18m

<u>For the second phase, time T2 = 5 secs;</u>

<em>Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;</em>

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

<em>Making distance the subject of formula, we have;</em>

Distance, S = speed * time

<em>Substituting into the above equation;</em>

Distance, S = 6 * 5

Distance, S2 = 30m

Total distance = S1 + S2 = 18m + 30m = 48m

Total distance = 48m

<em>Therefore, the total distance traveled by the biker is 48m.</em>

DETERMINE THE LAUNCH ELEVATION AND MAXIMUM RANGE: The test vehicle should obtain a burnout velocity of 7200 m/s at 180 km altitu
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Flight path angle= 15.12°, maximum range= 5.29× 10*6 km

Explanation:

u= 7200m/s, H= 180km= 180000m

Recall that

Maximum height, H= (u*2sin*2∆)/2g

180000= (7200×7200sin*2∆)/2×9.8

(18000×2×98)/7200×7200= sin*2∆

Sin∆= 0.2609

∆= 15.12°

Maximum range, R= u*2/g

(7200×7200)/9.8

= 5289795.92km

= 5.29× 10*6 km
