Complete Question

Suppose you hit a steel nail with a 0.500-kg hammer, initially moving at 15.0 m/s and brought to rest in 2.80 mm. How much is the nail compressed if it is 2.50 mm in diameter and 6.00-cm long.What Average force is excreted on the Nail

Answer:

F=2*10^{4}N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=0.500kg

Initial Velocity V=15.0m/s

Distance x=2.80mm=>0.00280m

Diameter d=2.50mm=>0.00250m

Length l=6.00cm=>0.6m

Generally the equation for Force is mathematically given by

 F=\frac{mv^2}{2d}

 F=\frac{0.500*15^2}{2.80*10^{-3}}

 F=2*10^{4}N

If a 1-megaton nuclear weapon is exploded
Elenna [48]

Answer:

1,780,000 N

Explanation:

0.2 atm × (1.013×10⁵ Pa/atm) = 20,260 Pa

Force = pressure × area

F = 20,260 Pa × (3.89 m × 22.6 m)

F = 1,780,000 N

Prove the correctness of this equation s=vt + 1/2at ​
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The formula is dimensionally correct.

Explanation:

Given

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Required

Prove its correctness

Write out the dimension of each:

s = M^0LT^0 --- displacement

ut = M^0LT^{-1} *  T --- velocity * time

\frac{1}{2}at^2 = M^0LT^{-2} * T^2 --- acceleration * square of time

The expression becomes:

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

M^0LT^0 = M^0LT^{-1} *  T + M^0LT^{-2} * T^2

Apply law of indices

M^0LT^0 = M^0LT^{-1+1} + M^0LT^{-2+2}

M^0LT^0 = M^0LT^{0} + M^0LT^{0}

M^0LT^0 = M^0LT^{0}

Both sides of the equation are equal
