What is the momentum of a 546,540 kg train that is travelling at 7.8 m/s

Two people push on the same door from opposite sides as shown.

tangare [24]

The correct answer is
c. one person exerts more force than the other so that the forces are unbalanced.

In fact, the door is initially at rest. In order to move the door, a net force different from zero should be applied, according to Newton's second law:
 $\sum F = ma$
where the term on the left is the resultant of the forces acting on the door, m is the door mass and a its acceleration.

In order to move the door, the acceleration must be different from zero. But this means that the resultant of the forces acting on it must be different from zero: this is possible only if the forces applied by the two persons are unbalanced, i.e. one person exerts more force than the other.

A basketball player jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body 0.310 m and then accelerates through this dista

Nastasia [14]

Answer:A)u =4.295m/s , B)a = 29.746m/s² C) F=3,153N

Explanation:

Using the kinematic expression

v² = u² - 2as

where

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

s = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity .

Given that he reaches a height of 0.940 m above the floor,

the final velocity = 0

Here, acceleration due to gravity is acting in opposite the initial direction of motion. So, a=-9.81 m/s.

v² = u² + 2as

0² - u² = 2 (- 9.81) × 0.940

- u² = 2 × - 9.81 × 0.920

- u² = -18.4428

cancelling the minus in both sides , we have that

u² = 18.4428

u = √18.4428

u =4.295m/s

(b) His acceleration (in m/s2) while he is straightening his legs. He goes from zero to the velocity found in part (a) in a distance of 0.310 m. m/s2

Using v² = u² + 2as

where u = initial speed of basketball player before lengthening = 0 m/s,

v = final speed of basketball player after lengthening = 4.295m/s,

a = acceleration while straightening his legs

s = distance moved during lengthening = 0.310m

v² = u² + 2as

a = (v² - u²)/2s

a = (4.29m/s)² - (0 m/s)²)/(2 × 0.310m)

a = (18.4428 m²/s² - 0 m²/s²)/(0.62 m)

a = (18.4428 m²/s²/(0.62 m)

a = 29.746m/s²

c) The force (in N) he exerts on the floor to do this, given that his mass is 106 kg. N

Force= mass x acceleration.

F = 106 kg X 29.746m/s²

F = 3,153.076 rounded to 3,153N

What are the three parts of Kinetic Theory

anyanavicka [17]

1. No energy is gained or lost when molecules collide.
2. The molecules in a gas take up a negligible (able to be ignored) amount of space in relation to the container they occupy.
3. The molecules are in constant, linear motion.

The si unit for acceleration is blank

True [87]

Answer:

meters per second squared

Explanation:

Because acceleration is equal to velocity over time where velocity is meters per second and time is measured in seconds making acceleration ms-2

The current through inductance L is given by I=I0e−t/τ

ohaa [14]

ΔVl = L di/dt
i = i₀e -t/T
di/dt = i₀ × (-1/T) e -t/T
ΔVl = L× (-I/T i₀e -t/T
ΔVl = -L/T i₀e -t/T

b. 15mm, i₀ = 36mA, T = 1.1m
t= Os
ΔVl = 0,491V
C. t = 1ms
ΔVl = 0.198V
t = 2ms
ΔVl = 0.08V

E. t = ms
ΔVl = 0.032V
