A 2100 kg car starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.6 m/s2 for 4.0 s. Assume that the force acting to accelerate the c

When the system is experiencing a uniformly accelerated motion, there are a set of equations to work from. In this case, work is energy which consist solely of kinetic energy. That is, 1/2*m*v2. First, let's find the final velocity.

a = (vf - v0)/t
2.6 = (vf - 0)/4
vf = 10.4 m/s

Then W = 1/2*(2100 kg)*(10.4 m/s)2
W = 113568 J = 113.57 kJ

What is the momentum of a 200 kg truck travelling at 20 m/s?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

p = 4000 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a truck, m = 200 kg

Speed of the truck, v = 20 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the truck. The formula for momentum is given by :

p = mv

so,

p=200\times 20\\\\p=4000\ kg-m/s

So, the momentum of the truck is equal to 4000 kg-m/s.

Distinguish between force and friction. class 8​
KengaRu [80]

Answer: Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. For example, when you try to push a book along the floor, friction makes this difficult. Force: Force is essentially a push, or a pull action, that can lead to certain outcomes.

A 50 kg astronaut floating in space throws her 2 kg wrench to the left at 10
Hoochie [10]

The astronaut will move at 0.4 m/s in the opposite direction to the wrench

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the astronaut-wrench system must be conserved before and after the launch.

Before the launch, the total momentum is zero, since the astronaut is at rest:

p = 0 (1)

After the launch, the total momentum is:

p=mv+MV (2)

where :

m = 2 kg is the mass of the wrench

v = 10 m/s is the velocity of the wrench

M = 50 kg is the mass of the astronaut

V is the recoil velocity of the astronaut

Since momentum is conserved, we can write (1) = (2), and so we can solve for V:

0=mv+MV\\V=-\frac{mv}{M}=-\frac{(2)(10)}{50}=-0.4 m/s

And the negative sign means that the astronaut will move in the opposite direction to the wrench.

I SERIOUSLY can't do this type of questions so can someone solve it detailedly and putting with letters (there is a system you n
KatRina [158]

Answer:

4 Ohms

Explanation

(This is seriously not as hard as it looks :)

You only need two types of calculations:

  1. replace two resistances, say, R1 and R2, connected in a series by a single one R. In this case the new R is a sum of the two: R = R_1+R_2
  2. replace two resistances that are connected in parallel. In that case: \frac{1}{R}= \frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}\\\mbox{or}\\R= \frac{R_1\cdot R_2}{R_1+R_2}

I am attaching a drawing showing the process of stepwise replacement of two resistances at a time (am using rectangles to represent a resistance). The left-most image shows the starting point, just a little bit "warped" to see it better. The two resistances (6 Ohm next to each other) are in parallel and are replaced by a single resistance (3 Ohm, see formula above) in the top middle image. Next, the two resistances (9 and 3 Ohm) are nicely in series, so they can be replaced by their sum, which is what happened going to the top right image. Finally we have two resistances in parallel and they can be replaced by a single, final, resistance as shown in the bottom right image. That (4 Ohms) is the <em>equivalent resistance</em> of the original circuit.

Using these two transformations you will be able to solve step by step any  problem like this, no matter how complex.
