What velocity must a 1210 kg car have in order to have the same momentum as a pickup truck

Answer: 46.5 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass(m) × velocity (v)

momentum of car = momentum of truck

1210 × v = 2250 × 25

v = 46.5 m/s

An accepted value for the acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 m/s2. In an experiment with pendulums, you calculate that the val

Fed [463]

g Generally the accepted value of acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 $m/s^2$

as per the question the acceleration due to gravity is found to be 9.42 $m/s^2$ in an experiment performed.

the difference between the ideal and observed value is 0.381.

hence the error is - $\frac{0.381}{9.801} *100$

=3.88735 percent

the error is not so high,so it can be accepted.

now we have to know why this occurs-the equation of time period of the simple pendulum is give as- $T=2\pi\sqrt[2]{l/g}$

$g=4\pi^2\frac{l}{T^2}$

As the experiment is done under air resistance,so it will affect to the time period.hence the time period will be more which in turn decreases the value of g.

if this experiment is done in a environment of zero air resistance,we will get the value of g which must be approximately equal to 9.801 $m/s^2$

During which stage does the birth rate begin to decline?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

During stage 3 - late expanding (of demogrpahic transition model)

Explanation:

During stage 3, birth rate begins to decline as infant mortality is lower and women have more access to education, family planning, and contraceptives. Children are not needed as "free labor" as they might have been in earlier stages.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 15.0kg object that is 5.00m above the ground relative to a point 8.00m above the

Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

an object's gravitational potential energy Eg is m×g×h where:

m=mass

g=9.8m/s²

h=height relative to the closest object below it (because it cannot potentially fall through it

so Eg = 15×9.8×5=735J

An elevator together with its passengers weights 5000 N. At a certain instant, the tension in its supporting cable is 6000 N. De

gayaneshka [121]

We have to forces acting on the system (elevator+passengers):
1) The weight (W=5000 N), acting downward
2) The cable's tension (T=6000 N), acting upward
So, the two forces have opposite direction. The resultant (in upward direction) will be
$F=T-W$
And for Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the system causes an acceleration on the system itself, given by
$a= \frac{F}{m}$
where m is the mass of the system.

So, we need to find F and m.
The resultant of the forces is
$F=T-W=6000 N-5000 N=1000 N$
To find m, we can use the weight of the system. In fact, the weight of an object is given by
$W=mg$
where $g=9.81 m/s^2$ . Solving for m, and using W=5000 N, we find
$m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{5000 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=510 kg$

and at this point, we can calculate the acceleration of the system (elevator+people):
$a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{1000 N}{510 kg}=1.96 m/s^2$
and the acceleration has the same direction of the resultant force, so upward.
