A man hits a golf ball (0.2 kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s2. What amount of force acted on the ball?

1 answer:

4 0

Newton taught us that Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Force = (0.2) x (20) = <em>4 newtons</em> .

Something to think about: The ball can only accelerate while the club-face
is in contact with it. Once the ball leaves the club, it can't accelerate any more,
because the force against it is gone.

A truck moving at 13.3 m/s hits a concrete wall. As a result of the collision, a 6-kg wrench moves forwards and strikes the wall

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the wrench must be equal to the velocity of the truck . So momentum of the wrench before it hits the wall

= mv = 6 x 13.3 = 79.8 kg m /s

If resisting force of wall be F , impulse on the wrench = F x time

= F x .07

Impulse = change in momentum of the wrench = mv - 0 = mv = 79.8 kgm/s

So F x .07 = 79.8

F = 1140 N .

A meter stick is held vertically above your hand, with the lower end between your thumb and first finger. On seeing the meter st

inessss [21]

Answer:

$t=0.193s$

Explanation:

What is said is that the meter fell d=18.3cm=0.183m under the action of gravity. We can use the formula for accelerated motion:

$d=v_0t+\frac{at^2}{2}$

Since it departed from rest it will mean that:

$d=\frac{at^2}{2}$

So our time will be:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$

Which for our values is:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.183m)}{(9.81m/s^2)}}=0.193s$

Two objects of the same mass are on two different planets. Planet A has a force of gravity that is weaker than that of planet B.

iris [78.8K]

C) The weight of the object on planet A will be less than the weight of the object on planet B.

This happened because: when gravitational pull of a planet is weak, an object will weigh less as a result of less gravity forcing it down to the ground.

The density (mass divided by volume) of pure water is 1.00 g/cm^3 that of whole blood is 1.05 g/cm^3 and the density of seawater

Stells [14]

Answer:

a) 5000 g

b) 5250 g

c) 5150 g

Explanation:

For easier calculations, the formulas will be converted from g/cm³ to kg/m³, and then back when we're done.

Density of pure water is 1 g/cm³

1 g/cm³ = 1 * 0.001/0.000001

1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³, and thus,

Density of pure blood

1.05 g/cm³ = 1050 kg/m³

Density of seawater

1.03 g/cm³ = 1030 kg/m³

Recall that, Density = mass / volume, and as such, mass = density * volume.

Converting our volume from L to m³

1 m³ = 1000 L, and as such

1 L = 0.001 m³

5 L = 0.005 m³

Mass of pure water = 1000 * 0.005

Mass of pure water = 5 kg

Mass of pure blood = 1050 * 0.005

Mass of pure blood = 5.25 kg

Mass of seawater = 1030 * 0.005

Mass of seawater = 5.15 kg

Converting these masses back to g, we have

Mass of pure water = 5 kg * 1000 g

Mass of pure water = 5000 g

Mass of pure blood = 5.25 kg * 1000 g

Mass of pure blood = 5250 g

Mass of seawater = 5.15 kg * 1000 g

Mass of seawater = 5150 g
