W = 4.9N. The weight of a basketball with a mass of 0.5Kg is 4.9N.

The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and can be defined as the product of the mass by the acceleration of gravity, w = mg.

W = (0.5Kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 4.9N

The correct one is A. Technician Only.
The distribution of service information is regulated by United States Environmental Protection Agency.
According to the rules, all vehicle manufacturers are required to make their service information available for everyone online for 'reasonable prices'.
Because of this, vehicle manufacturers started discontinuing the paper format.

(a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h,

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(a) Time t = 16.46 sec

(b) Time t =13.466 sec

Explanation:

(a) As the train starts from rest its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration $a=1.35m/sec^2$

Final speed v = 80 km/hr

$80km/hr=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600sec}=22.22m/sec$

From first equation of motion v =u+at

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{22.22-0}{1.35}=16.46 sec$

(b) Now initial speed u = 22.22 m/sec

As finally train comes to rest so final speed v=0 m/sec

Deceleration $a=1.65m/sec^2$

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-22.22}{-1.65}=13.466 sec$

Final velocity v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 8.30 sec

So acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{0-22.22}{8.3}=-2.6771m/sec^2$

As acceleration is negative so it is a deceleration

A car which is traveling at a velocity of 15 m/s undergoes an acceleration of 6.5 m/s2 over a distance of 340 m. How fast is it

fomenos

Answer:68.15m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₁=15m/s

a=6.5m/s²

v₁=?

x=340m

Formula:

v₁²=v₁²+2a (x)

Set up:

= $\sqrt{15m/s} ^{2} +2(6.5m/s^2)(340m)$

<h2>Solution:</h2><h2>68.15m/s</h2>

A 5.0 kg chunk of putty moving at 10m/s collides and sticks to a 7.0 kg bowling ball that is initially at rest.What is the total

Flura [38]

Answer:

Total momentum = 50kgm/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, M1 = 5kg

Mass, M2 = 7kg

Velocity, V1 = 10m/s

Velocity, V2 = 0m/s (since it's at rest).

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

$Momentum = Mass * Velocity$

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

Total momentum = M1V1 + M2V2

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Total momentum = 5*10 + 7*0

Total momentum = 50 + 0

Total momentum = 50 kgm/s

Therefore, the total momentum of the bowling ball and the putty after they collide is 50 kgm/s.
