Answer:

F = 25530 N

Explanation:

F(net) = ma

F(net) = 2553 kg•(10) m/s² = 25530 N

Two objects of same material are travelling near you. Object A is a 1.9 kg mass traveling 8 m/s; object B is a 2 kg mass traveli

Alex73 [517]

To determine the object which could give the greatest impact we will apply the concept of momentum. The object that has the highest momentum will be the object that will impact the strongest. Our values are

Mass of Object A

$m_A=1.9 kg$

Velocity of object A

$v_A=8ms$

Mass of object B

$m_B=2 kg$

Velocity of object B

$v_B=5ms$

The general formula for momentum is the product between mass and velocity, then

$p = mv$

For each object we have then,

$p_A=m_Av_A=1.9 kg(8ms)=15.2kg \cdot m/s$

$p_B=m_Bv_B=2 kg(5ms)=10kg \cdot m/s$

Since the momentum of object A is greater than that of object B, then object A will make you feel force upon impact.

In the equation for centripetal force, which expression represents the centripetal acceleration of the object? mv2 StartFraction

Sphinxa [80]

Answer: $\frac{V^{2}}{r}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's 2nd Law of motion the force $F$ is proportional to the mass $Fm$ and acceleration $a$ :

$F=m.a$ (1)

On the other hand, the equation for the Centripetal force is:

$F=\frac{mV^{2}}{r}$ (2)

Where:

$V$ is the velocity

$r$ is the radius of the circular motion

Making (1) and (2) equal:

$m.a=\frac{mV^{2}}{r}$ (3)

Hence:

$a=\frac{V^{2}}{r}$ This is the expression for the centripetal acceleration

It should be noted, this acceleration is directed toward the center of the circumference of the circular motion (that's why it's called centripetal acceleration).

A 790kg car moving at 7 m/s takes a turn around a circle with a radius of 20 m. Determined the net force (in Newton’s) acting up

prisoha [69]

1935.5 N is the "net force" acting on a car.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car is 790 kg.

Velocity of the car is 7 m/s. (v)

It turned around with 20 m. (r)

We know that, Net force = m × a
