In a football game, a receiver is standing still, having just caught a pass. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a velocit

y of +4.1 m/s, grabs him. The tackler holds onto the receiver, and the two move off together with a velocity of 2.1m/s. The mass of the tackler is 105 kg. Assuming that the momentum is conserved, find the mass of the receiver. What is the average force on the receiver if in contact for 1 second? What is the average force on the tackler if in contact for 1 second?

Answer:

A) mr = 100 kg

B) Fr = 210N

C) Ft = -199.5N

Explanation:

By conservation of the momentum:

mt*Vo = (mr + mt) * Vf  Solving for mr:

mr = mt*Vo / Vf - mt = 100 kg

The average force on the receiver:

mr *(Vf - 0) = Fr * Δt    Solving for Fr:

Fr = 210 N

The average force on the tackler:

mt * (Vf - Vo) = Ft * Δt    Solving for Ft:

Ft = -199.5 N

Bobo, the clown, can swim at 2.0 m/s. he must make a landing directly across to the north side of the styx river, which is 100.
victus00 [196]
We are given the following:

Bobo's swimming speed = 2.0 m/s
Width of the river = 100 m
Flowrate of the river = 6.0 m/s due east

First, we need to illustrate the problem. Draw the river with a width of 100 meters. Then, the flow of the river, east at 6 meters per second. Lastly, draw Bobo at one side of the river facing north and an arrow representing swimming speed at 2 meters per second.

Now, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this rate problem.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 

c = speed of Bobo needed
a = speed of Bobo facing north
b = flow rate of the river going east

c^2 = 2^2 + 6^2 

c = 6.32 m / s should be his speed to overcome the current and make a landing at the desired location.

A thin block of soft wood with a mass of 0.072 kg rests on a horizontal frictionless surface. A bullet with a mass of 4.67 g is
kozerog [31]

Answer:

v’= 279.66 m / s

Explanation:

We work this exercise using the conservation of the moment. For this we define the system formed by the two blocks, therefore the forces during the collision are internal of the action and reaction type.

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v₀ + 0

Final moment. After the crash

        p_f = m v + M v ’

how the tidal wave is preserved

       p₀ = p_f

       m v₀ = m v + M v ’

       v = \frac{m v_o - Mv'}{m}

let's calculate

       v ’= \frac{0.00467 \ 619 - 0.072 \ 22}{0.004676}

       v ’= \frac{2.89- 1.584}{ 0.00467}

       v ’= 279.66 m / s

A large aquarium of height 5 m is filled with fresh water to a depth of D = 1.80 m. One wall of the aquarium consists of thick p
Damm [24]

To solve the problem we will first start considering the Pressure given the hydrostatic definition of the product between the density, the gravity and the depth. We will define the area where the liquid acts and later we will use the definition of the force as a product between the pressure and the area to calculate the force given in the two depths. The gauge pressure at the depth x will be

(P-P_a)= \rho g x

This pressure acts on the strip of area

dA = 7.6dx

The force acting on that strip is given by,

dF = (P-P_a)dA

dF = \rho g xdA

dF = 7.6 \rho g x dx

To evaluate the force, we will then consider the integral of the pressure as a function of the Area, or the integral of the previously found terms.

F = \int_0^x 7.6 \rho g x dx

F = 3.8 \rho g x^2

Evaluating at the initial depth of 1.8m and the final depth of 4.4 we have then that,

F_{1.8} = 3.8 (998)(9.8)(1.8)^2 = 120416.28N

F_{4.4} = 3.8(998)(9.8)(4.4)^2 = 719524.46N

Therefore the Net force will be

F = F_{4.4}-F_{1.8}

F = 719524.46-120416.28

F = 599108.18N
