A woman of mass 50 kg is swimming with a velocity of 1.6 m/s. If she stops stroking and glides to a stop in the water, what is t
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 50kg

Initial velocity = 1.6m/s

Since she glides to a stop, her final velocity equals to zero (0).

Now, we would find the change in velocity.

Change \; in \; velocity = final \; velocity - initial \; velocity

Substituting into the equation above;

Change in velocity = 0 - 1.6 = 1.6m/s

Impulse \; of \; force = mass * change \; in \; velocity

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Impulse \; of \; force = 50 * -1.6

<em>Impulse of force = -80 Ns</em>

<em>Therefore, the impulse of the force that stops her is -80 Newton-seconds and it has a negative value because it is working in an opposite direction, thus, bringing her to a stop. </em>

Using examples, explain why the first and second Newton laws of motion are significant for living organisms.
Triss [41]

Answer:

1) Newton's first law of motion states an object will remain at rest or in uniform will be in uniform motion in a straight line unless a force acts on it

2) Newton's second law states the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the applied force acting on an object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

Explanation:

1) With Newton's first law, we are able arrange things within a space and schedule meetings in time knowing that they will remain in place unless an external force changes their positions

2) An example of Newton's second law of motion is that small objects such as a ball are easily accelerated and can be given appreciable acceleration for flight by single, one time contact (such as kicking the ball) while larger objects such as a rock require sustained force application to change their location.

Withe light becomes a spectrum of seven colored lights after passing through a prism
Fiesta28 [93]

True. The 7 colors, also called a rainbow, are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. This rainbow is formed because the prism bends the white light and spreads it out into the colors it was made of. If there is more you were looking for, comment here.

The mass of the block in the drawing is 10 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the vertical wall is 0.5
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The minimum force to start the block moving up the wall = 49 N

Explanation:

Friction: This is the force that tend to oppose the motion of two bodies in contact. The S.I unit of frictional force is Newton (N)

The minimum force required to start the block moving up the wall = Frictional Force.

I.e F = Frictional force.

And, F = μR..........................Equation 1

Where μ = coefficient of static friction, R = Normal reaction.

But R = mg ( on a level surface).................. Equation 2

Where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 10 kg,

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

substituting these values into Equation 2

R = 10 × 9.8

R = 98 N.

Also given: μ = 0.50

Substituting these values into equation 1

F = 98 × 0.5

F = 49 N.

Therefore The minimum force to start the block moving up the wall = 49 N
