What is the impulse of a 3 kg object that starts from rest and moves to 20 m/s?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The impulse on the object is 60Ns.

Explanation:

Impulse is defined as the product of the force applied on an object and the time at which it acts. It is also the change in the momentum of a body.

F = m a

F = m(\frac{v_{2}  - v_{1} }{t})

⇒     Ft = m(v_{2} - v_{1})

where: F is the dorce on the object, t is the time at which it acts, m is the mass of the object, v_{1} is its initialvelocity and v_{2} is the final velocity of the object.

Therefore,

impulse = Ft = m(v_{2} - v_{1})

From the question, m = 3kg, v_{1} = 0m/s and v_{2} = 20m/s.

So that,

Impulse = 3 (20 - 0)

             = 3(20)

             = 60Ns

The impulse on the object is 60Ns.

</span> The atmosphere is heated both by the Sun and by the Earth's surface. Water radiates heat differently than land, so the air temperature over the ocean is usually different than the air temperature over land. <span>
The difference in air temperature over land compared to over water causes convection currents in the atmosphere. How would a person at the beach experience these convection currents? 
</span>They would feel that the water is cold.

NOT:
They would feel the heat of the Sun.
They would feel that the sand is hot.
<span>They would feel wind as the air moves.</span>

An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.10 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 6.10 m
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

10.93m/s with the assumption that the water in the lake is still (the water has a speed of zero)

Explanation:

The velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water surface is equal to the resultant velocity between the fish and the water when it hits it.

The fish drops on the water surface vertically with a vertical velocity v. Nothing was said about the velocity of the water, hence we can safely assume that the velocity if the water in the lake is zero, meaning that it is still. Therefore the relative velocity becomes equal to the velocity v with which the fish strikes the water surface.

We use the first equation of motion for a free-falling body to obtain v as follows;

v = u + gt....................(1)

where g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s/s

It should also be noted that the horizontal and vertical components of the motion are independent of each other, hence we take u = 0 as the fish falls vertically.

To obtain t, we use the second equation of motion as stated;

h=ut+gt^2/2.................(2)

Given; h = 6.10m.

since u = 0 for the vertical motion;  equation (2) can be written as follows;

h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2............(3)

substituting;

6.1=\frac{1}{2}*9.8*t^2\\6.1=4.9t^2\\hence\\t^2=6.1/4.9\\t^2=1.24\\t=\sqrt{1.24}=1.12s

Putting this value of t in equation (1) we obtain the following;

v = 0 + 9.8*1.12

v = 10.93m/s
