What is the force required to produce an acceleration of 46.4

1 answer:

7 0

That depends on the mass of the object, and the unit of the '46.4' .

If the '46.4' is ' meters per second² ' , then the force required is

(mass of the object in kilograms) x (46.4) newtons .

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

0.74 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision.

Since the skateboard, the person and the brick where stationary, therefore, the total momentum before collision is 0

0 = Total momentum after collision

(m+M)V + m'v = 0

Where m = mass of the skateboard, M = mass of the person, m' = mass of the brick, V = recoil velocity of the person and the skateboard, v = velocity of the brick

make V the subject of the equation above

V = -m'v/(m+M)................... Equation 1

Given: m = 4.10 kg, M = 68.0 kg, m' = 2.50 kg, v = 21.0 m/s.

Substitute these values into equation 1

V = -(2.5×21)/(68+2.5)

V = 52.50/70.5

V = 0.74 m/s

A car of 900 kg mass is moving at the velocity of 60 km/hr. It is brought into rest at 50 meter distance by applying a brake. No

kozerog [31]

Answer: $-2502N$

Explanation:

$(V_2)^2=(V_1)^2+2ad$

where;

$V_2$ = final velocity = 0

$V_1$ = initial velocity = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

$a$ = acceleration

$d$ = distance

First all of, because acceleration is given in m/s and not km/h, you need to convert 60km/h to m/s. Our conversion factors here are 1km = 1000m and 1h = 3600s

$60km/h(\frac{1000m}{1km} )(\frac{1h}{3600s} )=16.67m/s$

Solve for a;

$(V_2)^2=(V_1)^2+2ad$

Begin by subtracting $(V_1)^2$

$(V_2)^2-(V_1)^2=2ad$

Divide by 2d

$\frac{(V_2)^2-(V_1)^2}{2d} =a$

Now plug in your values:

$a=\frac{(0)^2-(16.67 m/s)^2}{2(50m)}$

$a=\frac{0-277.89m^2/s^2}{100m}$

$a=-2.78m/s$

If you're wondering why I calculated acceleration first is because in order to find force, we need 2 things: mass and acceleration.

$F=ma$

m = mass = 900kg

a = acceleration = -2.78m/s

$F=(900kg)(-2.78m/s)\\F=-2502N$

It's negative because the force has to be applied in the opposite direction that the car is moving.

Kiran drove from City A to City B, a distance of 228 mi. She increased her speed by 12 mi/h for the 400-mi trip from City B to C

Degger [83]

Answer:

From city A to city B her speed was 38 mi/h

Explanation:

The traveled distance can be calculated using this equation:

From city A to city B

228 mi = v · t₁

Where:

v = velocity

t₁ = time it took Kiran to travel the 228 mi from city A to city B

From city B to city C

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

We also know that the entire trip took 14 h, then:

t₁ + t₂ = 14 h

So, we have a system of three equations with three unknwons:

228 mi = v · t₁

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

t₁ + t₂ = 14 h

Let´s solve the third equation for t₁:

t₁ = 14 h - t₂

Now let´s replace t₁ in the first equation and solve it for t₂

228 mi = v · t₁

228 mi = v · (14 h - t₂)

228 mi/v - 14 h = - t₂

t₂ = 14 h - 228 mi/v

Now let´s replace t₂ in the second equation:

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · t₂

400 mi = (v + 12 mi/h) · (14 h - 228 mi/v)

400 mi = 14 h · v - 228 mi + 168 mi - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

400 mi = 14 h · v - 60 mi - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

460 mi = 14 h · v - 2736 mi²/(v · h)

Multiplicate by v both sides of the equation:

460 mi · v = 14 h · v² - 2736 mi²/h

0 = 14 h · v² - 460 mi · v - 2737 mi²/h

Solving the quadratic equation:

v = 38 mi/h

(The other solution of the equation is negative, and therefore discarded)

From city A to city B her speed was 38 mi/h

A 4812 kg boulder sits on top of a 203 m cliff. What is its PE?

Bond [772]

Answer:

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 4812 × 9.8 × 203

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
