What is the velocity of a 50kg skater if her momentum is 225kg. m/s?

Gnom [1K]

|Momentum| = (mass) x (speed)

225 kg-m/s =(50kg) x (speed)

Divide each side by (50kg): Speed=(225 kg-m/s) / (50 kg) = 4.5 m/s .

Regarding the velocity, nothing can be said other than the speed, because
we have no information regarding the direction of the object's motion.

Which calculates the intensity of an electric field at a point where a 0.50 C charge experiences a force of 20. N?

tester [92]

Answer: $40\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given

Magnitude of charge is $q=0.5\ C$

Force experienced is $F=20\ N$

Electric field intensity is the electrostatic force per unit charge

$\therefore E=\dfrac{F}{q}\\\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{20}{0.50}\\\\\Rightarrow E=40\ N/C$

Thus, the electric field intensity is $40\ N/C$

You are standing at the top of a cliff that has a stairstep configuration. There is a vertical drop of 7 m at your feet, then a

Zolol [24]

Answer:

1. v = 6.67 m/s

2. d = 9.54 m

Explanation:

1. To find the horizontal velocity of the rock we need to use the following equation:

$d = v*t \rightarrow v = \frac{d}{t}$

<u>Where</u>:

d: is the distance traveled by the rock

t: is the time

The time can be calculated as follows:

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

<u>Where:</u>

g: is gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*7 m}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.20 s$

Now, the horizontal velocity of the rock is:

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8 m}{1.20 s} = 6.67 m/s$

Hence, the initial velocity required to barely reach the edge of the shell below you is 6.67 m/s.

2. To calculate the distance at which the projectile will land, first, we need to find the time:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(7 m + 3 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s$

So, the distance is:

$d = v*t = 6.67 m/s*1.43 s = 9.54 m$

Therefore, the projectile will land at 9.54 m of the second cliff.

I hope it helps you!

A 1,100 kg car is traveling initially 20 m/s when the brakes are applied. The brakes apply a constant force while bringing the c

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Work done = -220,000 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 1100kg

Initial velocity = 20m/s

To find workdone, we would calculate the kinetic energy possessed by the car.

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

$K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}$

Where,

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$K.E = \frac{1}{2}*1100*20^{2}$

$K.E = 550*400$

K.E = 220,000J

Therefore, the workdone to bring the car to rest would be -220,000 Joules because the braking force is working to oppose the motion of the car.
