Answer:1.63 m

Explanation:

Given

mass of block m=0.5 kg

inclination \theta =30^{\circ}

Amount of work done W=4 J

block slides a distance s along the Plane

Work done =change in Potential Energy

Increase in height of block is s\sin \theta

Change in Potential Energy =mg(\sin \theta -0)

\Delta P.E.=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

4=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

s=\frac{4}{2.45}      

s=1.63 m

A river flows at 2m/s. The velocity of a ferry relative to the shore is 4m /s at right angle to the current. What is the velocit
monitta

The velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.

<h3>Relative velocity</h3>
  • Relative velocity is the velocity of a body as observed from the reference point of another body either stationary or in motion.

Since the river is flowing parallel to the shore and the ferry is moving perpendicular to the shore, their velocities are at right angles to each other.

The two velocities form a right angled-triangle of sides 2, 4 and a hypotenuse which gives the relative velocity of the ferry to the current.

Using Pythagoras rule:

  • c² = a² + b²
  • Let c be the hypotenuse
  • a =  velocity of the ferry, and
  • b = the velocity of the current, and

c² = 4² + 2²

c² = 16 + 4

c = 20

c = √20

c = 4.47 m/s

c ≈ 4.5 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.

A 1.5 kg ball has a velocity of 12 m/s just before it strikes the floor. Find the impulse on the ball if the ball bounces up wit
Andru [333]

Hi there!

Recall:

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Let the direction TOWARDS the floor be POSITIVE, and AWAY be NEGATIVE.

Plug in the givan values:

Δp = 1.5(-10 - 12) = -33 Ns

**OR, the magnitude: |-33| = 33 Ns
