The situation is exactly the same as YOUR speed relative to the seat you're sitting in, aboard the passenger jet flying at 500 mph with you in it.

The dummy is moving with a speed 0 km/h relative to the seat in which it is sitting.

If the relative speed was non-zero, the dummy would move away from its seat, which contradicts the problem formulation.

If the velocity of a moving object decreases from 60 m/s to 30 m/s, what happens to its momentum?

amid [387]

Hello!

momentum is p=mv so if the velocity is decreased by a factor of 2, which is 1/2 the value, then the momentum of that object will decrease by the same factorial.

Hope this helps, any questions please ask. Thank you!

A flywheel with radius of 0.400 mm starts from rest and accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 0.600 rad/s2rad/s2.

charle [14.2K]

Answer: $0.00024\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

Radius of flywheel is $r=0.4\ mm$

Angular acceleration $\alpha=0.6\ rad/s^2$

For no change in radius, tangential acceleration is given as

$\Rightarrow a_t=a\lpha \times r$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow a_t=0.6\times 0.4\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2\\\Rightarrow a_t=2.4\times 10^{-4}\ m/s^2\ \text{or}\ 0.00024\ m/s^2$
