If a boy (m = 25 kg) at rest on skates is pushed by another boy who exerts a force of 500 N on him and if the first boy's final

velocity is 20 m/s, what was the contact time?

Answer:

1 second

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on the boy is equal to its change of momentum:

I = \Delta p\\F \Delta t = m \Delta v

where

F = 500 N is the push on the boy

\Delta t is the contact time

m = 25 kg is the mass of the boy

\Delta v = 20 m/s is the change in velocity of the boy

Solving the formula for the contact time, we find

\Delta t=\frac{m\Delta v}{F}=\frac{(25 kg)(20 m/s)}{500 N}=1 s

Timed! I would really appreciate some help! thank you!
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

x = 5[km]

Explanation:

We must convert the time from minutes to hours.

t=30[min]*\frac{1h}{60min}= 0.5[h]\\

We know that speed is defined as the relationship between space and time.

v=x/t

where:

x = space [m]

t = time = 0.5 [h]

v = velocity [m/s]

Now replacing:

x = 10[\frac{km}{h} ]*0.5[h]\\x=5[km]

Answer:

A capon (from Latin: caponem) is a cockerel (rooster) that has been castrated or neutered, either physically or chemically, to improve the quality of its flesh for food, and, in some countries like Spain, fattened by forced feeding.

Why are heat transfers associated with phase changes known as latent or "hidden" heats?
pshichka [43]
The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the first choice or letter A.

Heat transfers associated with phase changes known as latent or "hidden" heats because h<span>eat absorbed or released in a phase change is measured in kJ while temperature is measured in °C.</span>

Mary pushes a crate by applying force of 18 newtons. Unable to push it alone, she gets help from her friend, Anne. Together they
maw [93]
 <span>This problem is relatively simple, in order to solve this problem the only formula you need to know is the formula for friction, which is: 

Ff = UsN 

where Us is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. 

In order to get the crate moving you must first apply enough force to overcome the static friction: 

Fapplied = Ff 

Since Fapplied = 43 Newtons: 

Fapplied = Ff = 43 = UsN 

and it was given that Us = 0.11, so all you have to do is isolate N by dividing both sides by 0.11 

43/0.11 = N = 390.9 which is approximately 391 or C. 3.9x10^2</span>
