Answer:
Explanation:
All the rest of the information is extraneous. The only 2 things you have to know are
d = 20 km
t = 8 minutes = 8/60 hours = 0.13333333
So the speed is s = d/t
s = 20/0.1333333 = 150 km/hour
Note: you have not specified what units the speed is. I suppose you could answer 20/8 = 2.5 km/min
complete question:
A child bounces a 60 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 22 m/s downward to 15 m/s upward. If the contact time with the sidewalk is 1/800 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the superball by the sidewalk
Answer:
F = 1776 N
Explanation:
mass of ball = 60 g = 0.06 kg
velocity of downward direction = 22 m/s = v1
velocity of upward direction = 15 m/s = v2
Δt = 1/800 = 0.00125 s
Linear momentum of a particle with mass and velocity is the product of the mass and it velocity.
p = mv
When a particle move freely and interact with another system within a period of time and again move freely like in this scenario it has a definite change in momentum. This change is defined as Impulse .
I = pf − pi = ∆p
F = ∆p/∆t = I/∆t
let the upward velocity be the positive
Δp = mv2 - m(-v1)
Δp = mv2 - m(-v1)
Δp = m (v2 + v1)
Δp = 0.06( 15 + 22)
Δp = 0.06(37)
Δp = 2.22 kg m/s
∆t = 0.00125
F = ∆p/∆t
F = 2.22/0.00125
F = 1776 N
If you're using the bulb as a source of light, then it's. 14/60 = 23.3% efficient.
If you're using it to heat a bird nest or a hamster cage, then it's. 46/60 = 76.7% efficient !
It just depends on your point of view, and what you consider 'useful' output.
The answer is A. Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. A rocket exerts a large force on the gas that is in the rocket chamber (action). The gas thus exerts a large reaction force forward on the rocket (reaction). The large reaction force is called thrust.
