Answer:

The answer is B (twice as much)

Explanation:

The magnitude, or amount, of an object's acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the force exerted upon it and inversely proportional to its own mass.

In this case, if the offensive lineman's mass were doubled, then the force exerted upon him would also have to be doubled to produce the same acceleration (2 m/s2).

A 2.5 kg block is launched along the ground by a spring with a spring constant of 56 N/m. The spring is initially compressed 0.7
Norma-Jean [14]

vf ^2 = kx^2/m = 56(0.75)^2 / 2.5 = 12.6


Therefore, v= 3.5 m/s.

A batter hits a foul ball. The 0.140-kg baseball that was approaching him at 40.0 m/s leaves the bat at 30.0 m/s in a direction
lara31 [8.8K]
<h3>Answer</h3><h3>7 Ns</h3><h3>Explanation</h3>

Given in the question,

mass of foul ball = 0.140 kg

initial speed with which ball was hit with the bat = 30 m/s

final speed  = 40 m/s

According to the scenario the whole scene is making a right angle triangle

So, to the solve the question we will use pythagorus theorem

<h3>Hypotenuse² = base² + height²</h3>

Here,

Hypotenuse= Magnitude of impulse

Base = 1st change of momentum

height = 2nd change of momentum

 

1st impulse (1st change of momentum)

p = m(1)v(1) = (0.14 kg)(40.0 m/s) = 5.6 kg m / s = 5.6 N s

2nd impulse (2nd change of momentum)

p = m(2)v(2) = (0.14 kg)(30.0 m/s) = 4.2 kg m / s = 4.2 N s

Magnitude of impulse (hypotenuse of triangle)

impulse² = (5.6)² + (4.2)²

impulse² = 31.36 + 17.64

impulse² = 49

impulse² = √49

impulse = 7.0 N s

I'm trying to find the potential energy of a planet using formula G M(sun) x m(planet) / r. I have given G - newton's graviation
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

-5.39\times10^{33} J

Explanation:

Potential energy =

-\frac{GMm}{r}\\=-\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.99\times10^{30}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{147/1\times10^{9}}\\=-5.39\times10^{33} J
