Answer:

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

$f = \frac{w}{d} \\$

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

$f = \frac{578000}{960} \\ = 602.083333...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Where,

$m_1$ = mass of ball

$m_2$ = mass of the person

$u_1$ = Velocity of ball before collision

$u_2$ = Velocity of the person before collision

$v_1$ = velocity of ball afer collision

$v_2$ = velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

$v_1 = v_2$

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2$

Re-arrenge to find $v_2$ ,

$v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Our values are,

$m_1$ = 0.425kg

$u_1$ = 12m/s

$m_2$ = 68.5kg

$u_2$ = 0m/s

Substituting,

$v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}$

$v_2 = 0.074m/s$

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

Answer:

Average Speed = 6.37 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is simply given by the following formula:

Average Speed = Total Distance Traveled/Total Time Spent

here,

Total Time Spent = 1.1 min + 1.5 min = (2.6 min)(60 s/min) = 156 s

Now, for total distance, we have to calculate the distance traveled on tortoise and distance traveled while flying, separately. Therefore,

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (Time spent on Tortoise)(Speed of Tortoise)

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (1.1 min)(60 s/min)(0.06 m/s) = 3.96 m

Similarly,

Flying Distance = (Flying Time)(Flying Speed) = (1.5 min)(60 s/min)(11 m/s)

Flying Distance = 990 m

Since, total distance is the sum of both distances, therefore,

Total Distance = 3.96 m + 990 m = 993.96 m

Now, using the values in equation of average speed, we get:

Average Speed = 993.96 m/156 s

<u>Average Speed = 6.37 m/s</u>
