Find the momentum of a particl with a mass of one gram moving with half the speed of light.

Answer:

129900

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the particle, m = 1 g = 1*10^-3 kg

Speed of the particle, u = ½c

Speed of light, c = 3*10^8

To solve this, we will use the formula

p = ymu, where

y = √[1 - (u²/c²)]

Let's solve for y, first. We have

y = √[1 - (1.5*10^8²/3*10^8²)]

y = √(1 - ½²)

y = √(1 - ¼)

y = √0.75

y = 0.8660, using our newly gotten y, we use it to solve the final equation

p = ymu

p = 0.866 * 1*10^-3 * 1.5*10^8

p = 129900 kgm/s

thus, we have found that the momentum of the particle is 129900 kgm/s

A bike first accelerates from 0.0m/s to 4.5m/s in 4.5 s, the continues at this constant speed for another 6.0 s. What is the tot
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

37.125 m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

s=ut+0.5at^{2} where s is distance, u is initial velocity, t is time and a is acceleration

<u>Distance during acceleration</u>

Acceleration, a=\frac {V_{final}-V_{initial}}{t} where V_{final} is final velocity and V_{initial} is initial velocity.

Substituting 0.0 m/s for initial velocity and 4.5 m/s for final velocity, acceleration will be

a=\frac {4.5 m/s-0 m/s}{4.5 s}=1 m/s^{2}

Then substituting u for 0 m/s, t for 4.5 s and a for 1 m/s^{2} into the equation of motion

s=0*4.5+ 0.5*1*4.5^{2}=0+10.125 =10.125 m

<u>Distance at a constant speed</u>

At a constant speed, there's no acceleration and since speed=distance/time then distance is speed*time

Distance=4.5 m/s*6 s=27 m

<u>Total distance</u>

Total=27+10.125=37.125 m

A 25.0 g marble sliding to the right at 20.0 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 10.0 g marble moving in the same dir
vovikov84 [41]
In collision that are categorized as elastic, the total kinetic energy of the system is preserved such that,

   KE1  = KE2

The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is solved below.

  KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
  KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This value should also be equal to KE2, which can be calculated using the conditions after the collision.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Hence, the answer is 17.16 cm/s.

Joe the house painter stands on a uniform oak board weighing 600 N and held up by vertical ropes at each end. Joe has been dieti
Mamont248 [21]

Answer

given,

weight of the oak board = 600 N

Weight of Joe = 844 N

length of board = 4 m

Joe is standing at 1 m from left side

vertical wire is supporting at the end.

Assuming the system is in equilibrium

T₁ and T₂ be the tension at the ends of the wire

equating all the vertical force

T₁ + T₂ = 600 + 844

 T₁ + T₂ = 1444...........(1)

taking moment about T₂

 T₁ x 4 - 844 x 3 - 600 x 2 = 0

 T₁ x 4 = 3732

 T₁ = 933 N

from equation (1)

 T₂ = 1444 - 933

 T₂ = 511 N

A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?
LenaWriter [7]
During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)
