A 5kg wheel rolls off a flat roof of a 50 m tall building at 12m/s.

Physics
1 answer:
Olegator [25]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

a) Given in the y direction (taking down to be positive):

Δy = 50 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

50 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s²) t²

t = 3.2 s

b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 12 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 3.2 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (12 m/s) (3.2 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (3.2 s)²

Δx = 38 m

A truck traveling down the highway collides with a slower moving mosquito traveling in the same direction. Which of the followin
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

B. The truck and mosquito exert the same size force on each other.

Explanation:

Newton's third law (law of action-reaction) states that

"When an object A exerts a force (action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this case, we can call

object A = the truck

object B = the mosquito

Thereforce according to Newton's third law, the force exerted by the truck on the mosquito is equal in magnitude to the force exerted by the mosquito on the truck (and in opposite direction).

The reason for which the mosquito will experience much more damage is the fact that the mosquito's mass is much smaller than the truck's mass, and since the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass:

a=\frac{F}{m}

the mosquito will experience a much larger deceleration than the truck, therefore much more damage.

If both mass and speed are doubled, what happens to its momentum?
puteri [66]

The general formula is:      Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

I never like to just write a bunch of algebra without explaining it.
But in this particular case, there's really not much to say, and
I think the algebra will pretty well explain itself.  I hope so:


Original momentum = (original mass) x (original speed)


New momentum = (2 x original mass) x (2 x original speed)

                           = (2) x (original mass) x (2) x (original speed)

                           = (2) x (2) x (original mass) x (original speed)

                           =  (4) x (original mass) x (original speed)

                           =  (4) x (original momentum).

Answer:

2.1km

Explanation:

Ill take it as u are talking about the displacement

Since displacement has negatives and positves
