Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Impulse is the change in momentum in an object hence given by

Impulse=F∆t

Impulse=∆p=m(v-u)

Here, F is force applied, t is rime, m is mass, v is final velocity and u is initial velocity

Given that the question has time but no magnitude of the force, we use the sexond equation.

Taking forward velocity as negative then u=-10 m/s, also since the car comes to rest, final velocity is 0 m/s. Substititing mass with 1500 kgs then

Impulse=1500(0--10)=15000 kg.m/s

An electromagnetic wave has a frequency of 1.0 x 10^5. What is the wavelength of the wave?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The frequency , speed and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave are related by the formula

Speed = frequency x wavelength

frequency = speed / wavelength

substituting the values

frequency = 3 x #10 ^8# m /s / 1 x #10^15# m

= 3 x #10^-7# /s

A student at another university repeats the experiment you did in lab. Her target ball is 0.860 m above the floor when it is in
dexar [7]

Answer:

K = 0.076 J

Explanation:

The height of the target, h = 0.860  m

The mass of the steel ball, m = 0.0120 kg

Distance moved, d = 1.50 m

We need to find the kinetic energy (in joules) of the target ball just after it is struck. Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach the ground.

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put all the values,

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 0.860 }{9.8}} \\\\=0.418\ s

The velocity of the ball is :

v=\dfrac{1.5}{0.418}\\\\= $$3.58\ m/s

The kinetic energy of the ball is :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0120\times 3.58^2\\\\=0.076\ J

So, the required kinetic energy is 0.076 J.

A student with a mass of 62.0 kg walks up a flight of stairs with a height of 3.40 meters. If it takes him 7.00 seconds to get t
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of student = 62 kg

Height of stairs = 3.4 meter

Time taken = 7 second

Find:

Power generate by generator

Computation:

Power = Force x [Distance / Time]

Power = [Mass x gravitational acceleration] x [Distance / Time]

Power = [62 x 9.8][3.4/7]

Power = [607.6][3.4/7]

Power = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)
