A 5 kg object slows from +6 m/s to +2 m/s. What is the impulse?

Physics
1 answer:
Liula [17]3 years ago
5 0

Impulse on the object: -20 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is a vector quantity equal to the product between the force exerted on the object and the time interval during which the force is applied.

The impulse exerted on an object is also equal to its change in momentum. Mathematically,

I=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where:

m is the mass of the object

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

For the object in this problem, we have

m = 5 kg

u = +6 m/s

v = +2 m/s

Therefore, its impulse is:

I=(5)(+2-(+6))=-20 kg m/s

The negative sign means the direction of the impulse is opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

To move a heavy object, like a refrigerator what could be used to help decrease the frictional force?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

A. Remove everything in the refrigerator to lighten the load.

B. Put a lubricant between the surface of the object and the floor

C. Use round objects, like pencils , to decrease the friction and push the refrigerator over the pencils more easily

Explanation:

Force of friction is a resistance force which acts between two surfaces which are in relative motion. Friction is both boon and bane. Due to friction, we are able to sit, walk etc but also, due to friction there is dissipation of energy. Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants, reducing contact area, reducing the load.

F = μN where N is the normal force which depends on the mass.

Thus, by reducing the load, force of friction can be reduced. Round objects like wheels can also be used. By this the contact area reduces.

To make sure you understand how to use the equation, suppose that there are 1000 habitable planets in our galaxy, that 1 in 10 h
krok68 [10]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

Number of habitable planets = 1000

Fraction of planet with life = 1/10

Fraction of planet with life and civilization (before) = 1/4

Fraction of planet with life and civilization (now) =1/5

Therefore multiplying we have:

1000×1/10×1/4×1/5 = 5

It is dangerous to stand near the railway leak when train passing by,why?​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Because a person may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accident

Explanation:

According to Daniel Bernoulli's theorem, he was widely known as a Mathematician. He stated that due to the higher velocity of a moving train, there is higher kinetic energy in terms of volume around it, while the air pressure between the person and the train becomes lower.

As a result, a person near a moving train may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accidents that may lead to death.
