Superman throws a boulder of weight 3800 n at an adversary on the surface of the earth, where the magnitude of the acceleration

due to gravity, g = 9.80 m/s2 . what horizontal force must superman apply to the boulder to give it a horizontal acceleration of 12.8 m/s2 ?

The weight of the boulder is 3800 N, therefore its mass i s
3800/9.8 = 387.755 kg

If the horizontal acceleration is 12.8 m/s², then the horizontal force applied is
F = (387.755 kg)*(12.8 m/s²) = 4.963 x 10³ n = 4.963 kN

Answer: 4.963 kN

F all of the energy in a falling object's gravitational potential energy store is transferred to its kinetic energy store by the
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The options are not shown, so let's derive the relationship.

For an object that is at a height H above the ground, and is not moving, the potential energy will be:

U = m*g*H

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Now, the kinetic energy of an object can be written as:

K = (1/2)*m*v^2

where v is the velocity.

Now, when we drop the object, the potential energy begins to transform into kinetic energy, and by the conservation of the energy, by the moment that H is equal to zero (So the potential energy is zero) all the initial potential energy must now be converted into kinetic energy.

Uinitial = Kfinal.

m*g*H = (1/2)*m*v^2

v^2 = 2*g*H

v = √(2*g*H)

So we expressed the final velocity (the velocity at which the object impacts the ground) in terms of the height, H.

A baseball has mass 0.147 kg. If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55
Anit [1.1K]

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a baseball is 0.147 kg

Initial velocity of the baseball is 44.5 m/s

The ball is moved in the opposite direction with a velocity of 55.5 m/s

It is required to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.

Change in momentum,

\Delta p=mv-mu\\\\\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.147\times ((-55.5)-44.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.7\ kg-m/s\\\\|\Delta p|=14.7\ kg-m/s

Impulse = 14.7 kg-m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat is 14.7 kg-m/s

2. A 56N force is exerted on an 8kg object. What is the object's acceleration?
White raven [17]

acceleration = 7 m/s²

Explanation:

To determine the object's acceleration we use the following formula:

force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)

acceleration (m/s²) = force (N) / mass (kg)

acceleration = 56 N / 8 kg

acceleration = 7 m/s²
