The momentum of a 0.1 kg object traveling at 2000 m/s is 20,000 kg·m/s. True or False

That's false.

The definition of momentum is (mass) x (speed), so they must be multiplied.

"20,000 kg-m/s" has the correct units resulting from multiplication, but the number could only be the result of division.

A charge q produces an electric field of strength 2E at a distance of d away. Determine the electric field strength at a distanc

Alja [10]

The electric field strength of a point charge is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the charge ... a lot like gravity.

If the magnitude of the field is (2E) at the distance 'd', then at the distance '2d', it'll be (2E)/(2²). That's (2E)/4 = 0.5E .

madam [21]

Till the time car is just adjacent to the bicycle we can say

distance moved by cycle = distance moved by car

Time taken by car to accelerate from rest

$t = \frac{v_f - v_i}{a}$

$t = \frac{49 - 0}{7} = 7 s$

Time taken by cycle to accelerate

$t = \frac{23 - 0}{15} = 1.53 s$

now the distance moved by cycle in time "t"

$d = \frac{23 + 0}{2}*1.53 + 23(t - 1.53)$

distance moved by car in same time

$d = \frac{7t + 0}{2}(t)$

now make them equal

$3.5t^2 = 17.595 - 35.19 + 23t$

$3.5 t^2 - 23t + 17.595 = 0$

$t = 5.68 s$

so cycle will move ahead of car for t = 5.68 s

A mover applies a net force of 28 N to a sofa that has a mass of 70 kg.

Alinara [238K]

Answer: .4 m/s^2= acceleration

Explanation:

f = m*a

We can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration. Therefore,

a=f/m

a= 28N/70kg

a= 0.4 m/s^2
