Answer:

ΔP = 3600 kg m/s.

Explanation:

Change in momentum (ΔP) of the car is the amount of impulse on it. Impulse (I) can be define as the product of force and the time at which it acts.

i.e I = ΔP

But, I = Ft

Ft = ΔP

ΔP = 6500 x 0.55

     = 3575 Ns

     = 3600 kg m/s^{2} x s

ΔP = 3600 kg m/s

The magnitude of the change in momentum of the car is 3600 kgm/s.

What is the resultant of the two vectors shown?
Ksju [112]

Answer

correct answer is C

Head-to-tail method

Here head-to-tail method is employed to determine resultant of vectors.

Let horizontal component be 1 and let vertical component be 2

To add these two vectors. Move vector 2 until its tail touches the head of 1. The tail of resultant of these two vectors touch the tail of vector 1 and head of resultant vector will touch the head of vector 2.

How does pressure affect surface tension
tatyana61 [14]

the effect of pressure on surface tension can be attributed in part to absorption of gas at the surface of the liquid and in part to an intrinsic decrease in density of the liquid in the neighborhood of the surface.

In the case of liquids , Owing to contact forces between the edge of the surface and the vessel, the surface acquires a curvature, and if the liquid rises up at the edges where it meets the vessel, the pressure will be less in the liquid than in the air, for points just below and just above the surface. The vessel exerts an upward force on the liquid. This is simply a matter of looking at the directions of forces acting, knowing that the surface is under tension.

How is a frame of reference used to describe motion
Zinaida [17]
In particle kinematics, we measure the acceleration of the particle. For this, an observer is taken as a reference point. Generally we consider the observer as in origin of a co-ordinate system. The place where observer is placed is known as frame of reference. 
Newton's laws only work in the inertial frame of reference. Inertial frame is a frame of reference whose acceleration is zero. But, if you are observing the motion of an object from non-inertial frame, you need to add and extra force on the system under observation which is known as pseudo force.

A train traveling at 27.5 m/s accelerates to 42.4 m/s over 75.0 s. What is the displacement of the train in this time period
Sergio [31]

Answer:

2621.25 meters

Explanation:

First, write down what we are given.

Initial velocity = 27.5 m/s

Final velocity = 42.4 m/s

Time = 75 seconds

We need to look at the kinematic equations and determine which one will be best.  In this case, we need an equation with distance.  I am going to use v_{f}^{2} = v_{i}^{2} +2ad, but you can also use the other equation, x = v_{o}t+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

We need to find acceleration.  To find it, we need to use the formula for acceleration: a = \frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}.  Plugging in values, a = \frac{42.4-27.5}{75} = .199\ m/s^{2}

Next, plug in what we know into the kinematics equation and solve for distance.  42.4^{2} = 27.5^{2} + 2(.199)(d)\\d = 2621.25\ meters

an object with a mass of 5kg is moving with an initial velocity of 20m/s.the object accelerates at a rate of 15m/s/s for 8s.what
Alinara [238K]

It doesn't matter what the object's initial velocity is, or how long
the acceleration lasts.  All that matters is the object's mass and
acceleration.

Force = (mass) x (acceleration) =

                (5kg) x (15 m/s²) =

                         75 kg-m/s² = <em>75 newtons .</em>
