Answer;

400 pounds

400 pounds is the number of pounds that a sand bag must weigh to test if a safety net can absorb the proper amount of force.

Explanation;

The drop test consists of a 400 lb. sandbag dropped from the highest height from which a potential fall might occur, and from no fewer than 42 inches above that level.

Safety nets must be drop-tested on the job site at the following times:

  • After installation and prior to first use
  • If the net is relocated
  • After a major repair
  • After six months, if the net is left in place

Two identical freight cars roll without friction (one at 1 m/s, the other at 2 m/s) toward each other on a level track. They col
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

They collide, couple together, and roll away in the direction that <u>the 2m/s car was rolling in.</u>

Explanation:

We should start off with stating that the conservation of momentum is used here.

Momentum = mass * speed

Since, mass of both freight cars is the same, the speed determines which has more momentum.

Thus, the momentum of the 2 m/s freight car is twice that of the 1 m/s freight car.

The final speed is calculated as below:

mass * (velocity of first freight car) + mass * (velocity of second freight car) = (mass of both freight cars) * final velocity

(m * V1) + (m * V2) = (2m * V)

Let's substitute the velocities 1m/s for the first car, and - 2m/s for the second. (since the second is opposite in direction)

We get:

m*1 + m*(-2) = 2m*V

solving this we get:

V = - 0.5 m/s

Thus we can see that both cars will roll away in the direction that the 2 m/s car was going in. (because of the negative sign in the answer)

21. A 1000-kg automobile moving with a speed of 24 m/s relative to the road collides with a 500-kg automobile initially at rest.
Luda [366]

A truck is moving with less velocity in the direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more momentum.

<h3 /><h3>In which direction the truck moves?</h3>

A truck is moving with the velocity of 10 m/s in the same direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more mass so it has more momentum. Due to collision, the velocity of the truck is slow down but can't be stopped because of high momentum in the truck.

So we can conclude that a truck is moving with less velocity in the direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more momentum.

You throw a baseball (mass 0.145 kg) vertically upward. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.
Andru [333]

Answer:

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of height and velocity of the ball are the following:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.81 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity of the ball at time t.

Placing the origin at the throwing point, y0 = 0.

Let´s use the equation of velocity to obtain the time at which the velocity is 12.0 m/s / 2 = 6.00 m/s.

v = v0 + g · t

6.00 m/s = 12.0 m/s -9.81 m/s² · t

(6.00 - 12.0)m/s / -9.81 m/s² = t

t = 0.612 s

Now, let´s calculate the height of the baseball at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²     (y0 = 0)

y = 12.0 m/s · 0.612 s - 1/2 · 9.81 m/s² · (0.612 s)²

y = 5.51 m

The ball will have an upward velocity of 6 m/s at a height of 5.51 m.

Have a nice day!
