<h3><u>Given</u> :</h3>

Momentum of car = 10880 kg m/s

Velocity of car = 16 m/s

We. have to find mass of the car $.$

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

★ Momentum of body is measured as the <u>product of mass and its velocity</u>.

It is a vector quantity having both <u>magnitude</u> as well as <u>direction</u>.

SI unit : kg m/s or N s

Formula : p = m × v

p denotes momentum
m denotes mass
v denotes velocity

★ <u>Calculation</u> :

⭆ p = m × v

⭆ 10880 = m × 16

⭆ m = 10880/16

⭆ m = 680 kg

∴ <u>Mass of the car = 680 kg</u>

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 67.5 kg</h3>

Explanation:

To find the mass of an object given it's momentum and velocity we use the formula

$m = \frac{p}{v} \\$

where

p is the momentum

v is the velocity

From the question

p = 1080 kgm/s

v = 16 m/s

We have

$m = \frac{1080}{16} = \frac{135}{2} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

What is the velocity of a narwhal that swims 76 kilometers North in 3 hours

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity - Displacement/time

Given

displacement = 76km

Time = 3hours

Substitute the given parameters into the formula;

Velocity = 75km/3hrs

Velocity = 25km/hr

Hence the velocity of the narwhal is 25km/hr

A 1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The driver applies the brakes

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The value of F= - 830 N

Since the force is negative, it implies direction of the force applied was due south.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass = 1000-kg

Distance, d = 240 m

Initial velocity, v1 = 20.0 m/s

Final velocity, v2 = 0 (since the car came to rest after brake was applied)

v2²= v1² + 2ad (using one of the equation of motion)

0= 20² + (2 x a x 240)

0= 400 + 480 a

a = - 400/480

a = - 0.83 m/s²

Then, imputing the value of a into

F = ma

F = 1000 kg x ( - 0.83 m/s²)

F= - 830 N

The car was driving toward the north, and since the force is negative, it implies direction of the force applied was due south.

An inventor claims to have developed a food freezer that, in steady-state conditions, requires a power input of 0.25 kW to extra

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The inventors claim is not real

a) No the the freezer cannot operate in such conditions

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power input is $P_i = 0.25 kW = 0.25 *10^{3} \ W$

The rate of heat transfer $J = 3050 J/s$

The temperature of the freezer content is $T = 270 \ K$

The ambient temperature is $T_a = 293 \ K$

Generally the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator at idea conditions is mathematically represented as

$COP = \frac{T }{Ta - T}$

substituting values

$COP = \frac{270 }{293 - 270}$

$COP =11.7$

Generally the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator at real conditions is mathematically represented as

$COP = \frac{J}{P_i}$

substituting values

$COP = \frac{3050}{0.25 *10^{3}}$

$COP = 12.2$

Now given that the COP of an ideal refrigerator is less that that of a real refrigerator then the claims of the inventor is rejected

This is because the there are loss in the real refrigerator cycle that are suppose to reduce the COP compared to an ideal refrigerator cycle where there no loss that will reduce the COP

Kinetic vs potential energy

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained from movement while potential energy is the energy in something when it is at a height or has been manipulated in some way; it has work done to it.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is, like I said, energy gained through movement or action. When an object stops moving, it converts into a different type of energy. Energy cannot be destroyed or created. An object with potential energy has a reference. A reference determines how high it is. The higher and heavier an object is, the more potential energy it has.

Hope this helps!
