The formula for the momentum is
p = mv
As a consequence of the conservation of energy, there is also the law of conservation of momentum.
So,
Δp = Δmv = mΔv
The maximum precision that the position can be ascertained is less than 100% because of dissipation.
Answer:
The change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.
Explanation:
Mass m = 1000 kg
speed v₁ = 20 m/s
speed v₂ = 0 m/s
We know that,
The change in momentum
ΔP = m (Δv)
ΔP = m (v₂ - v₁)
= 1000 (0 - 20)
= 1000 (-20)
= -20000 kg m/s
Thus, the change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.
Note: negative sign indicates that the velocity is reducing when it hits the barrier.
True.
Depending how accurate the graph is plotted
The angle of the wedge is 30°.
Answer:
5.88 ft/s
Explanation:
a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.
initial velocity u= 0
final velocity, v
acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²
Sliding displacement, s = 3ft
Use third equation of motion:

substitute the values and solve for v

b) Use conservation of momentum:
Initial momentum of the system = 0
final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')
v' = 5.88 ft/s
Answer:
d) What is the force if we doubled both the masses AND we doubled the distance
