Answer:

The force is 15N

Explanation:

The formula is Force= mass × velocity.

From the question mass is 5kg, velocity is 3m/s.

F= 5×3

F= 15Newton.

Therefore the force is 15N.

Answer:

7.5 N

Explanation:

Given data :

velocity ( V ) = 3m/s

mass of hammer ( m ) = 5 kg

Determine the force needed to keep hammer moving through space

The force needed to keep the hammer moving in space can be calculated

F = ma  ----- (1 )

m = 5 kg

a = velocity / time

velocity = displacement / time  = 3 m/s  hence displacement after 1 second = 3m

now we have to determine the acceleration using the relationship  below

V^2 =  V1^2 + 2(a)(d)

3^2 = 0 + 2(a) ( 3 )

 9 = 6a   ∴  a = 9/6 = 1.5 m/s^2

back to equation 1

F = ma

  = 5 * 1.5 =  7.5 N

Suppose a ball is dropped from shoulder height, falls, makes a perfectly elastic collision with the floor, and rebounds to shoul
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:Same magnitude

Explanation:

When ball is dropped from shoulder height h then velocity at the bottom is given by

v_1=\sqrt{2gh}

if it makes elastic collision then it will acquire the same velocity and riser up to the same height

If m is the mass of ball then impulse imparted is given by

J=m(v_2-v_1)

J=2m\sqrt{2gh}

Thus impulse imparted by gravity and Floor will have same magnitude of impulse but direction will be opposite to each other.

How does adding more of a substance affect it's density?
fomenos
I’m going to use molasses as an example of a substance.

The mass and volume both change when changing the amount of molasses.
However, the density does not change. This is because the mass and volume increase at the same rate/proportion!

Even though there is more molasses (mass) in test tube A, the molasses also takes up more space (volume). Therefore, the spacing between those tiny particles that make up the molasses is constant (does not change).

The size or amount of a material/substance does not affect its density.
