Two identical gliders on an air track are held together by a piece of string, compressing a spring between the gliders. While th

ey are moving to the right at a common speed of 0.325 m/s, someone holds a match under the string and burns it, letting the spring force the gliders apart. One glider is then observed to be moving to the right at 1.33 m/s. What velocity does the other glider have

Answer:

Explanation:

Both the gliders have same mass and same speed of .325 m /s .

The detachment of spring will create equal and opposite force on both of them , one force adding momentum to one and the other force reducing the momentum of the other . Since mass of both the gliders are same , change in velocity too will be same . Let change in velocity be v .

for forward moving glider

.325 + v = 1.33

v = 1.005 m /s

The other glider will have final velocity

= .325 - 1.005

= - .68 m /s

So other glider will go in opposite direction with velocity of .68 m /s .

alukav5142 [94]
As this happens over twelve seconds, you would take the total difference in velocities and divide it by twelve to find the change per second

44.0 m/s - 2.0 m/s = 42.0 m/s 

42.0 m/s / 12 s = 3.5 m/s2

the acceleration of the rock would be 3.5 m/s2

A soccer ball kicked with a force of 12.5 N accelerates at 6.2 m/s’ to the right. What is the mass of the ball? Answer in units
stepladder [879]

Answer:

m = 2.01[kg]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's second law which tells us that the force applied on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F =m*a

where:

F = force = 12.5 [N]

m = mass [kg]

a = acceleration = 6.2 [m/s²]

12.5=m*6.2\\m = 2.01[kg]
