Hello!
<em>a) What is the change in momentum</em>?
The change of the momentum is the velocity, because the velocity is reduced to zero.
We can calculate the aceleration, applicating the formula:
Like you see, the final velocity will be zero, so:
Like you see, the aceleration applicate by superman is of <u>-10 m/s^2.</u>
If the aceleration is negattive, means the velocity will decrease.
<em>b.) What is the magnitud of the force wich superman exerts on the train?</em>
For calculate the force applicate for superman, lets applicate the second law of Newton:
Lets replace and resolve it:
F = 8x10^3 kg * (-10 m/s^2)
F = 8000 kg * (-10 m/s^2)
F = -80 000 N
The force applicated is of <u>-80000 Newtons.</u>
When the force is negative means the force applicated in the another direction of the object what is traveling.
Answer:
Speed of the ball relative to the boys: 25 km/h
Speed of the ball relative to a stationary observer: 35 km/h
Explanation:
The RV is travelling at a velocity of
Here we have taken the direction of motion of the RV as positive direction.
The boy sitting near the driver throws the ball back with speed of 25 km/h, so the velocity of the ball in the reference frame of the RV is
with negative sign since it is travelling in the opposite direction relative to the RV. Therefore, this is the velocity measured by every observer in the reference frame of the RV: so the speed measured by the boys is
v = 25 km/h
Instead, a stationary observer outside the RV measures a velocity of the ball given by the algebraic sum of the two velocities:
v = +60 km/h + (-25 km/h) = +35 km/h
So, he/she measures a speed of 35 km/h.
