Answer:

height =20m

Explanation:

gpe=mgh

800=4×10×x

40x=800

x=20

An object is moving but we don't know its mass or velocity. A force of 20 newtons to the right
jok3333 [9.3K]

The impulse is (force) x (time) = (20 N) x (20 sec) = 400 N-sec

When we grind through the units, we find that the [newton-second]
is exactly the same as the [kilogram-meter/sec] unit-wise, and once
we know that, it doesn't surprise us to learn that impulse is equivalent
to a change in momentum (mass x speed ... also kg-m/s).

So this impulse exerted on the moving object adds 400 kg-m/s of
linear momentum to its motion, directed to the right.  That may or
may not be the total change in its momentum during that 20-sec,
because our 20-N may not be the only force acting on it.

a block of mass m slides along a frictionless track with speed vm. It collides with a stationary block of mass M. Find an expres
shusha [124]

Answer:

Part a) When collision is perfectly inelastic

v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}

Part b) When collision is perfectly elastic

v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that collision is perfectly inelastic

so here we will have

mv_m = (m + M)v

so we have

v = \frac{mv_m}{m + M}

now we know that in order to complete the circle we will have

v = \sqrt{5Rg}

\frac{mv_m}{m + M} = \sqrt{5Rg}

now we have

v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}

Part b)

Now we know that collision is perfectly elastic

so we will have

v = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}

now we have

\sqrt{5Rg} = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}

v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}

Rest and motion are inter-related to each other, explain​
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Rest and motion are the relative terms because they depend on the observer's frame of reference. So if two different observers are not at rest with respect to each other, then they too get different results when they observe the motion or rest of a body.

What is the proper equation to use for finding the net force in the y direction
mart [117]

The direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of the net force: 34 degrees. Apply the equation <eq04017> to find the magnitude of the net force, giving you 35.4 N. Use the magnitude of the force and the mass to find the magnitude of the acceleration: a = F/m = (35.4 N)/(0.10 kg) = 354 m/s2.
