The actual answer is 7/100
The wall will push back, in exactly the opposite direction, and with
exactly the same size force.
That's why the net force on the palm of your hand is zero, and that
in turn is the reason that your hand doesn't accelerate.
If you keep increasing the strength of your push, then eventually you
exceed the force that the wall is capable of delivering. Then the wall
crumbles and falls, your hand accelerates in the direction you're pushing,
and the crowd goes wild !
Answer:
Impulse = 88 kg m/s
Mass = 8.8 kg
Explanation:
<u>We are given a graph of Force vs. Time. Looking at the graph we can see that the Force acts approximately between the time interval from 1sec to 4sec. </u>
Newton's Second Law relates an object's acceleration as a function of both the object's mass and the applied net force on the object. It is expressed as:
Eqn. (1)
where
: is the Net Force in Newtons (
)
: is the mass (
)
: is the acceleration (
)
We also know that the acceleration is denoted by the velocity (
) of an object as a function of time (
) with
Eqn. (2)
Now substituting Eqn. (2) into Eqn. (1) we have
Eqn. (3)
However since in Eqn. (3) the time-variable is present, as a result the left hand side (i.e.
is in fact the Impulse
of the cart ), whilst the right hand side denotes the change in momentum of the cart, which by definition gives as the impulse. Also from the graph we can say that the Net Force is approximately ≈
and
(thus just before the cut-off time of the force acting).
Thus to find the Impulse we have:

So the impulse of the cart is 
Then, we know that the cart is moving at
. Plugging in the values in Eqn. (3) we have:

So the mass of the cart is
.
Alessandro Volta's battery was a simple and reliable source of electric current, which allowed scientists to study electricity better than they could with previous sources, such as the Leyden jar, and allowed the development of new technology powered by electricity.
