For how long a time must a tow truck pull with a force of 550N on a stalled 1200kg car to give it a forward velocity of 2.0m/s?

Answer:

4.36 seconds

Explanation:

According to the question;

  • Force is 550 N
  • Mass of the car is 1200 kg
  • Velocity of the car is 2.0 m/s

We are needed to find the time the car must the tow track pull the car.

  • From Newton's second law of motion;
  • Impulsive force, F = Mv÷t , where m is the mass, v is the velocity and t is the time.

Rearranging the formula;

t = mv ÷ F

Thus;

Time = (1200 kg × 2.0 m/s²) ÷ 550 N

        = 4.36 seconds

Thus, the time needed to pull the car is 4.36 seconds

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The frequency increases.

Explanation:

When the Musician draws the slide in the length of the horn gets shorter, which causes a decrease in the wavelength. A decrease in the wave length results in an increase in frequency.

Note:

The diameter of the horn has an effect on frequency, so a wider horn is effectively a long horn - open end correction ( distance between the the antinode and the open end of a pipe).

Frequency also depends on how hard the musician blows the trombone. The musician can change the frequency with the lip pressure being applied.

What is elasticity in polymer generally related to?
Andrej [43]
The elasticity of a polymer is primarily due to the structure of the molecule and the cross-linking between strands. Hydrogen bonding is a contributor to the shape of the molecule, but not a major player in terms of elasticity. We would have to answer "false".

When we kept the Earth's mass the same, but shrank its size, we saw that had an effect on its escape speed. Albert Einstein used
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The escape velocity is the velocity needed by any object to overcome the gravitational force of the planet on which it’s present. Now we know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the planet and inversely proportional to the distance of the object from the center of planet.

If we keep the mass of earth constant and decrease the size of the earth than this will decrease the distance between the object and the center of the earth and thus the gravitational force that will act on the body will increase substantially which will in turn increase the value of the escape velocity.

The value of escape velocity will keep on increasing as the size of the earth will shrink till it reaches to a point when the value of escape velocity becomes more than the speed of light and since it’s impossible to travel with a speed greater than the speed of light and therefore at this point it will become impossible for a spacecraft to escape the earth.
