Answer:

<h2>A. 180 miles</h2><h2>B. 60 miles</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

In this problem, we are required to solve for the total distance that the car travelled. and the displacement

A) the distance travelled by car

this can be gotten by summing all the distances the car has travelled.

i,e total distance= 60 miles+120 miles

total distance= 180 miles

B) the displacement of the car

the displacement can be gotten by  subtracting the final distance from the initial distance

final distance = 120 miles

initial distance= 60 miles

displacement= 120-60= 60 miles

A pyrotechnical releases a 3 kg firecracker from rest. at t=0.4 s, the firecracker is moving downward with a speed 4 m/s. At the
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a) F = 30 N, b)   I = 12 N s , c)  I = -12 N s , d) ΔI = 0 N s

Explanation:

This exercise is a case at the moment, let's define the system formed by the firecracker and its two parts, in this case the forces during the explosion are internal and the moment is conserved

Initial, before the explosion

     p₀ = m v

The speed can be found by kinematics

     v = v₀ - g t

     v = 0 - 10 0.4

     v = -4.0 m / s

Final after division

     pf = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

    p₀ = pf

    M v = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

Where M is the initial mass (M = 3 kg), m₁ is the mass mtop (m₁ = 1 kg) and m₂ in the mass m botton (m₂ = 2kg) and the piece that moves up (v₁f = 6m/s )

a) before the explosion the only force acting on the body is gravity

     F = mg

     F = 3 10 = 30 N

b) The expression for momentum is

     I = Ft

Before the explosion the only force that acts is the weight

    I = mg t

    I = 3 10 0.4

    I = 12 N s

c) To calculate this part we use the conservation of the moment and calculate the speed of the body that descends body 2

    M v = m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f

    v₂f = (M v - m₁ v₁f) / m₂

    v₂f = (3 (-4) - 1 6) / 2

   v₂f = - 9 m / 2

The negative sign indicates that body 2 (botton) is descending

Now we can use the momentum and momentum relationship for the body during the explosion

    I = F t = Dp

   F t = pf –po)

   F t= [m₁ v₁f + m₂ v₂f]

   

   I = [1 6 + 2 (-9) -0]

   I = -12 N s

This is the impulse during the explosion the negative sign indicates that it is headed down

d) impulse change

I₀ = Mv

I₀ = 3 *4

I₀ =-12 N s

 ΔI =If – I₀  

ΔI = - 12 – (-12)

ΔI = -0 N s
