An object of mass m is initially at rest. After a force of magnitude F acts on it for a time T, the object has a speed v. Suppos

e the mass of the object is doubled, and the magnitude of the force acting on it is quadrupled.In terms of T, how long does it take for the object to accelerate from rest to a speed v now?

Answer:

It takes \frac{1}{2}T to accelerate the object from rest to the speed v.

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F=m\cdot a  (1)

and the definition of acceleration,

\displaystyle{a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}} (2)

we can solve this problem. Putting (2) in (1) we have:

\displaystyle{F = m\cdot \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}} and solving for \Delta t and considering the initial time as zero (t_0=0) and the initial velocity also zero (v_0=0) we have:

\displaystyle{T=\frac{mv}{F}}

Now, for a mass m^*= 2m and the F^*=4F we can wrtie the same equation:

\displaystyle{T^*=\frac{m^*v}{F^*}} and substituting m^* and F^*:

\displaystyle{T^*=\frac{2m\cdotv}{4F}=\frac{2}{4}T=\boxed{\frac{1}{2}T}}

So now, it only takes half the time to accelerate the object from rest to the speed v

Why can’t a real machine ever have 100% efficiency
Harman [31]

Answer:

Almost all machines require energy to offset the effects of gravity, friction, and air/wind resistance. Thus, no machine can continually operate at 100 percent efficiency.

How do we know that solar system formed from a spinning disk of gas and dust
Mademuasel [1]

The evidence of this research is published in the scientific journal Nature communication.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Our solar system shaped about 4.5 billion years prior from a thick haze of interstellar gas and residue. The cloud crumbled, potentially due to the shock wave of a close by detonating star, called a supernova. At the point when this residue cloud crumbled, it framed a sun powered cloud—a turning, whirling plate of material.

The research is distributed in the latest issue of journal Nature Communications. About 4.6 billion years prior, a haze of gas and residue that in the end framed our nearby planetary group was upset. The following gravitational breakdown framed the proto-Sun with an encompassing plate where the planets were conceived.

A rifle has a mass of 7-kg and the bullet has a mass of 0.7-kg. If the velocity of the bullet is 350-m/s after the rifle is fire
nevsk [136]

Answer:

-35 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

Momentum before firing = momentum after firing

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

Before the bullet is fired, the bullet and rifle have no velocity, so u₁ and u₂ are 0.

0 = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

Given m₁ = 0.7 kg, v₁ = 350 m/s, and m₂ = 7 kg:

0 = (0.7 kg) (350 m/s) + (7 kg) v

v = -35 m/s

The rifle recoils at 35 m/s in the opposite direction.
