How much is required to accelerate a 5kg mass at 20 m/s2

Physics
1 answer:
zhannawk [14.2K]3 years ago
5 0

use F = ma

F : force m : mass a : acceleration

so

f = 5kg * 20 m/s2 = 100 N

a rocket is launched with a constant acceleration straight up. exactly 4.00 seconds after lift off, a bolt falls off the side of
Papessa [141]

The initial speed of the bolt is not 58.86 m/s.  

Let a be the acceleration of the rocket.  

During the 4 sec lift off, the rocket has reached a height of  

h = (1/2)*a*t^2  

with t=4,  

h = (1/2)*a^16  

h = 8*a  

Its velocity at 4 sec is  

v = t*a  

v = 4*a  

The initial velocity of the bolt is thus 4*a.  

During the 6 sec fall, the bolt has the initial velocity V0=-4*a and it drops a total height of h=8*a. From the equation of motion,  

h = (1/2)*g*t^2 + V0*t  

Substituting h0=8*a, t=6 and V0=-4*a into it,  

8*a = (1/2)*g*36 - 4*a*6  

Solving for a  

a = 5.52 m/s^2

PL-1) A spring that hangs vertically is 25 cm long when no weight is attached to its lower end. Steve adds 250 g of mass to the
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

20.42 N/m

Explanation:

From hook's law,

F = ke ......................... Equation 1

Where F = Force applied to the spring., k = spring constant, e = extension.

Make k the subject of the equation,

k = F/e ................. Equation 2

Note: The force on the spring is equal to the weight of the mass hung on it.

F = W = mg.

k = mg/e................ Equation 3

Given: m = 250 g = 0.25 kg, e = 37-25 = 12 cm = 0.12 m.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

k = (0.25×9.8)/0.12

k = 20.42 N/m.

Hence the spring constant = 20.42 N/m

Find the time it takes for each object to accelerate from 0m/s to 40 m/s when pushed with 100N of force
Ivan

Answer:

40s

Explanation:

Given:

F=100N

V=40m/s and 0

force=change in momenton

F=mv-mu

t=40(100-0)/100

t=40/1

t=40s
