A boy of mass 46.2 kg is initially on a skateboard of mass 2.00 kg, moving at a speed of 10.2 m/s. The boy falls off the skatebo

ard, and his center of mass moves forward at a speed of 10.9 m/s. Find the final velocity of the skateboard.

Answer:

v=-5.97\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The system boy-skateboard can be modelled by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(48.2\,kg)\cdot (10.2\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (46.2\,kg)\cdot (10.9\,\frac{m}{s} )+(2\,kg)\cdot v

The final velocity of the skateboard:

v=-5.97\,\frac{m}{s}

A student practicing for a track meet ran 250 m in 30 seconds. What was her average speed?
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

8.33 meters/sec.

Explanation:

distance = 250 meters

time = 30 sec.

velocity = distance / time

            = 250 meters

                   30 sec.

            = 8.33 meters/sec.

U. A hockey player takes a slap shot at a puck at rest on
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

a) 7200 ft/s²

b) 140 ft

c) 3.7 s

Explanation:

(a) Average acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.

a_avg = Δv / Δt

We need to find what velocity the puck reached after it was hit by the hockey player.

We know it reached 40 ft/s after traveling 90 feet over rough ice at an acceleration of -20 ft/s².  Therefore:

v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)

(40 ft/s)² = v₀² + 2(-20 ft/s²)(100 ft − 10 ft)

v₀² = 5200 ft²/s²

v₀ = 20√13 ft/s

So the average acceleration impacted to the puck as it is struck is:

a_avg = (20√13 ft/s − 0 ft/s) / (0.01 s)

a_avg = 2000√13 ft/s²

a_avg ≈ 7200 ft/s²

(b) The distance the puck travels before stopping is:

v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)

(0 ft/s)² = (5200 ft²/s²) + 2(-20 ft/s²)(x − 10 ft)

x = 140 ft

(c) The time the puck takes to travel 10 ft without friction is:

t = (10 ft) / (20√13 ft/s)

t = (√13)/26 s

The time the puck travels over the rough ice is:

v = at + v₀

(0 ft/s) = (-20 ft/s²) t + (20√13 ft/s)

t = √13 s

So the total time is:

t = (√13)/26 s + √13 s

t = (27√13)/26 s

t ≈ 3.7 s

Two small conducting point charges, separated by 0.4 m, carry a total charge of 200 C. They repel one another with a force of 12
Lunna [17]

Answer:

200 C

Explanation:

Let C1 and C2 be their charges. According to Coulomb's law

F_C = k\frac{C_1C_2}{R^2}

where k = 8.99\times10^9 nm^2/C^2 is the constant, R = 0.4m is the distance between them, F = 120 N is their resulting charge force

120 = 8.99\times10^9\frac{C_1C_2}{0.4^2}

C_1C_2 = \frac{120*0.4^2}{8.99\times10^9} = 2.13\times10^{-9}

Since their total charge is 200C:

C_1 + C_2 = 200 or C_1 = 200 - C_2

We can substitute the above equation

C_1C_2 = (200 - C_2)C_2 = 2.13\times10^{-9}

-C_2^2 +200C_2 - 2.13\times10^{-9} = 0

C= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

C= \frac{-200\pm \sqrt{(200)^2 - 4*(-1)*(-0.00000000213)}}{2*(-1)}

C= \frac{-200\pm200}{-2}

C = 1.06 \times 10^{-11} or C \approx 200

So the larger charge is C = 200 C

PART ONE
Helga [31]

Answer:

1.129×10⁻⁵ N

1.295 m

Explanation:

Take right to be positive.  Sum of forces on the 31.8 kg mass:

∑F = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

∑F = G (M₁ − M₂) m / r²

∑F = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N kg²/m²) (516 kg − 207 kg) (31.8 kg) / (0.482 m / 2)²

∑F = 1.129×10⁻⁵ N

Repeating the same steps, but this time ∑F = 0 and we're solving for r.

∑F = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

0 = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

516 / r² = 207 / (0.482 − r)²

516 (0.482 − r)² = 207 r²

516 (0.232 − 0.964 r + r²) = 207 r²

119.9 − 497.4 r + 516 r² = 207 r²

119.9 − 497.4 r + 309 r² = 0

r = 0.295 or 1.315

r can't be greater than 0.482, so r = 0.295 m.
