Physics
2 answers:
GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Momentum is the ability of an object to continue its motion. It can be measured by multiplying mass of the object and its velocity.

Mathematically,               p = m × v

where                     p = momentum

                               m = mass

                                v = velocity

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options, momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop an object.

Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Newtons II law: </em>

<em>     </em>It  is defined as<em> "the net force acting on the object is a product of mass and acceleration of the body"</em> . Also it defines that the <em>"acceleration of an object is dependent on net force and mass of the body".</em>

Let us assume that,a string is attached to the cart, which passes over a pulley along the track. At another end of the string a weight is attached which hangs over the pulley. The hanging weight provides tension in the spring, and it helps in accelerating the cart. We assume that the string is massless and no friction between pulley and the string.

Whenever the hanging weight moves downwards, the cart will accelerate to right side.

<em>For the hanging weight/mass</em>

When hanging weight of mass is m₁ and accelerate due to gravitational force g.

           Therefore we can write F = m₁ .g

and the tension acts in upward direction T (negetive)

        Now, Fnet = m₁ .g - T

                          = m₁.a

So From Newtons II law<em> F =  m.a</em>

How many revolutions per minute would a 25 m -diameter ferris wheel need to make for the passengers to feel "weightless" at the
kozerog [31]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Let ω =  the angular velocity (rad/s) of the wheel.

At the topmost point, the passenger, with mass m,  will feel weightless if the passenger's weight matches the centripetal force.
The passenger's weight is mg.
The centripetal force is mω²r.

Therefore
mω²r = mg
ω = √(g/r)

Because g = 9.8 m/s² and r = 25/2 = 12.5 m, therefore
ω = √(9.8/12.5) = 0.8854 rad/s

Because 1 revolution per second is 2π rad/s, therefore
\omega = (0.8854 \,  \frac{rad}{s} )*( \frac{1}{2 \pi} \,  \frac{rev}{rad} )*(60 \,  \frac{s}{min} ) = 8.455 \, rev/min

Answer: 8.455 rev/min

You are in a tall building located near the equator. What happens to your tangential speed due to the earth's rotation as you ri
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:increases

Explanation:

If we are going upward in an elevator from the ground floor to the top floor then it indicates that your distance from the center of the earth is increasing while the time period remains the same.

If the radial distance is increased then the tangential velocity of the object must be increased because the time period is the same.

This can be best explained by taking an example of a car moving in a circle of radius r. If radial is increased for the same period then the car has to travel at a higher velocity to make in time.
