6. A 0.09 kg arrow hits a target at 22 m/s and penetrates 4 cm before stopping.
tatyana61 [14]
A ) v = v o - a t
0 = 22 - a · t
a · t = 22
d = v o · t - a t²/2
0.04 = 22 t - 22 t / 2
0.04 = 11 t
t = 0.04 : 11 = 0.003636 s
a = 22 / t
a = 6050 m/s²
F = m · a = 0.09 kg · 6050 m/s²
F ( target→arrow) = - 544.5 N
b ) F ( arrow→target ) = 544.5 N
c )  If the speed was doubled:  v = 44 m/s;
F = a m
a = 6050 m/s²
a · t = 44
t = 6050 : 0.04
t = 0.007272 s
d = 44 t - 44 t/2 = 22 t
d = 22 · 0.007272
d = 0.16 m = 16 cm

An astronaut weighing 248 lbs on Earth is on a mission to the Moon and Mars. (a) What would he weigh in newtons when he is on th
lesantik [10]

Answer:

W_m=183.495N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Weight W=248Ibs

Mass of Weight  m= 248*0.453

                          m=112.344kg

Generally the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is one-sixth that on Earth.

Therefore

The equation for Weight on Moon is given as

 W_m=m*g/6

 W_m=122.344*\frac{9.8}{6}

 W_m=183.495N

What is 0.40 as a fraction?
maxonik [38]
Please remember to post in the right category next time :)

.40 as a fraction is 4/10 or 2/5
the 4 is in the tenths place, so put it over a 10 to make it a fraction.
then, simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2, and you get 2/5

A ball rolls from x=-5 to x=32.4 m in 8.9 seconds. What was it’s average velocity
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

4.157 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity: This can be defined as the ratio change in position to time interval. The S.I unit of average velocity is m/s

The expression for average velocity is given as,

V = Δx/t.............. Equation 1

Where V = average velocity, Δx = change in position on the x- axis, t = time.

But,

Δx = x₂-x₁........... Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

V = (x₂-x₁)/t................ Equation 3

Given: x₂ = 32.4 m, x₁ = -5 m, t = 8.9 s

Substitute into equation 3

V = [32.4-(-5)]/8.9

V = (32.4+5)/8.9

V = 37.4/8.9

V = 4.157 m/s

Hence the average velocity = 4.157 m/s
