Explanation:
Take south to be negative.
a. Momentum is mass times velocity.
p = mv
p = (540 kg) (-6 m/s)
p = -3240 kg m/s
p = 3240 kg m/s south
b. Impulse = change in momentum
J = Δp
Since the mass is constant:
J = mΔv
J = (540 kg) (-4 m/s − (-6 m/s))
J = 1080 kg m/s
J = 1080 kg m/s north
Answer:
3rd order polynomial
Explanation:
Given that the increase in the order of the polynomial the error between the curve fit and measured data will decreases hence :
The polynomial order that is best to use is the 3rd order polynomial, this is because using a 3rd order polynomial will produce a less variance and a low Bias
Potential Energy= 24m * 14kg * 9.8N/kg = 3292.8J
