What is the mass of a large ship that has a momentum of 1.60×109kg·m/s, when the ship is moving at a speed of 48.0 km/h? (b) Com

pare the ship’s momentum to the momentum of a 1100-kg artillery shell fired at a speed of 1200 m/s.

a) The mass of the ship is $1.2\cdot 10^8 kg$

b) The ship has a larger momentum than the shell

Explanation:

a)

The momentum of an object is given by:

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the ship in this problem, we have

$p=1.60\cdot 10^9 kg m/s$ is the momentum

$v=48.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=13.3 m/s$ is the velocity

Solving for m, we find the mass of the ship:

$m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{1.60\cdot 10^9}{13.3}=1.2\cdot 10^8 kg$

b)

The momentum of the artillery shell is given by

$p=mv$

where

m is its mass

v is its velocity

For the shell in this problem,

m = 1100 kg

v = 1200 m/s

Substituting,

$p=(1100)(1200)=1.32\cdot 10^6 kg m/s$

So, we see that the ship has a larger momentum.

What is the force of gravity for a 12 kg turkey?<br><br> Please help asap

pogonyaev

Answer: 117.6N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we know that:

F = m*a

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

We know that in the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8m/s^2.

Then we just can input that acceleration in the above equation, and also replace m by 12kg, and find that the force due the gravity is:

F = 12kg*9.8m/s^2 = 117.6N

Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of the charges (q1 = +7.7 µC) is at x1 = +3.1 cm and the other (q2 = -19 µC) is at x2

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) $E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

b) $E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.

Explanation:

Given that

q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm

q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm

We know that electric filed due to a charge given as

$E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}$

$E_1=K\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}$

$E_2=K\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2}$

Now by putting the va;ues

a)

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.031^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=72.11\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.089^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=21.58\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1-E_2$

$E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.

b)

Now

distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm

distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.024^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=120.3\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.034^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=147.92\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1+E_2$

$E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.
