During a football game, a receiver has just caught a pass and is standing still. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a vel

ocity of 2.60 m/s, grabs and holds onto him so that they move off together with a velocity of 1.30 m/s. If the mass of the tackler is 122 kg, determine the mass of the receiver. Assume momentum is conserved.

Answer:

<h2>122kg</h2>

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which states that 'the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to their sum after collision. The bodies will move together with a common velocity after collision.

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

<u>Before collision;</u>

Momentum of receiver m1u1= 0 kgm/s (since the receiver is standing still)

Momentum of the tackler

m2u2 = 2.60*122 = 317.2 kgm/s

where m2 and u2 are the mass and velocity of the tacker respectively.

Sum of momentum before collision = 0+317.2 = 317.2 kgm/s

<u>After collision</u>

Momentum of the bodies = (m1+m2)v

v = their common velocity

m1 = mass of the receiver

Momentum of the bodies = (122+m1)(1.30)

Momentum of the bodies = 158.6+1.30m1

According to the law above;

317.2 = 158.6+1.30m1

317.2-158.6 = 1.30m1

158.6 = 1.30m1

m1 = 158.6/1.30

m1 = 122kg

The mas of the receiver is 122kg

A driver drove for 3 hours at a certain speed. if he drove 12 more miles at the same speed, the distance would be 132 miles. at
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

40mph

Explanation:

1st leg DATA:

time = 3 hrs ; speed = r mph ; distance = 3r miles

------------

2nd leg DATA:

speed = r mph ; distance = 12 miles

 

--------------------------------

3r + 12 = 132

3r = 120

rate = 40 mph

PLSS HELP AND I WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO THE ONE WHO ANSWERS CORRECTLY
Ierofanga [76]

The potential difference,electric current ,resistance and new electric current will be 12 V,4 A,3 Ω,2 A.

<h3>What is resistance?</h3>

Resistance is a type of opposition force due to which the flow of current is reduced in the material or wire. Resistance is the enemy of the flow of current.

The energy in terms of the charge and potential difference is;

E= qV

60=5 C × V

V= 12 V

The electric current is found as;

\rm I= \frac{q}{t} \\\\ I= \frac{5}{1.25}\\\\ I=4 \ A

From the ohm's law;

V=IR

12=4 ×R

R=3Ω

If the voltage is constant and the resistance is doubled, then the new electric current is half of the previous condition;

\rm I'=\frac{I}{2} \\\\ I'=\frac{4}{2} \\\\\ I'=2 \ A

Hence, the potential difference,electric current ,resistance and new electric current will be 12 V,4 A,3 Ω,2 A.

To learn more about the resistance, refer to the link;
