Impulse = (force) x (time)
The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec
The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so
(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec
Divide each side by 50N : Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>
By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
The astronaut will know due to the light from the explosion.
Explanation:
Sound and vibrations require a medium such as air to travel through. Space, there is no air. Only a vacuum. So sound and vibrations are unable to travel. Light requires no medium to travel. It can go through a vacuum.
Therefore the Astronaut will see a bright flash of light as it travels from the explosion to outer space. It is also important to note that light can travel very far because nothing else interacts with its wave particles and as such, it cannot be impeded.
Cheers!
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity.
Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.
Answer:
The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.
Explanation:
The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.
We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.
So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.
Answer:
t=40s,
Explanation:
If you can swim in still water at 0.5m/s, the shortest time it would take you to swim from bank to bank across a 20m wide river, if the water flows downstream at a rate of 1.5m/s, is most nearly:
from the question the swimmer will have a velocity which is equal to the sum of the speed of the water and the velocity to swi across the bank
Vt=v1+v2
the time is takes to swim across the bank will be
DY=Dv*t
DY=distance across the bank
Dv=ther velocity of the swimmer across the bank
t=20/ 0.5m/s,
t=40s, time it takes to swim across the bank
velocity is the rate of displacement
displacement is distance covered in a specific direction
