This is a concept of momentum. In equation, momentum is the product of force and distance. When a ball is thrown, its force is constant all throughout unless disturbed by an external force. Therefore, force is the constant of proportionality that relates momentum with distance. When you block a ball from a given distance, you would feel the great force on your hand. In order to reduce the force, you have to follow the direction of the force in order to minimize the impact. By doing this, you gradually decrease the momentum of the ball.

A sheet of metal is 2mm wide 10cm tall and 15cm long. it was 4g. what is the density? <br>

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Ro = 133 [kg/m³]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must apply the definition of density, which is defined as the relationship between mass and volume.

$Ro = m/V$

where:

m = mass [kg]

V = volume [m³]

We will convert the units of length to meters and the mass to kilograms.

L = 15 [cm] = 0.15 [m]

t = 2 [mm] = 0.002 [m]

w = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now we can find the volume.

$V = 0.15*0.002*0.1\\V = 0.00003 [m^{3} ]$

And the mass m = 4 [gramm] = 0.004 [kg]

$Ro = 0.004/0.00003\\Ro = 133 [kg/m^{3}]$

Three resistors of 100 W, 3900 W, and 1000 W are connected in series across a 200-V battery. What is the voltage drop across the

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

40 V

Explanation:

I will assume that the resistors are

100 and 3900 and 1000 OHMS <=====(NOT W)

In series , the resistances add together 100 + 3900 + 1000 = 5000 ohms total

V = IR

I = V / R so the total current will be 200 v / 5000 ohms = .04 amps

this is the current through all of the resistors

so for the 1000 ohm resistor V = IR .04 (1000) = 40 V

A converging lens of focal length 20 cm is placed in contact with, and to the left of, a diverging lens of focal length 30 cm. I

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Magnification will be equal to 3

Explanation:

We have given focal length of the converging lens $F_1=20cm$

Focal length of the diverging lens $F_2=30cm$

Object is placed 40 cm to the length of the converging lens d = 40 cm

Combination of the focal length will be equal to

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{F_1}+\frac{1}{F_2}$

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{-30}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{60}$

F = 60 cm

So combination of the focal length will be 60 cm

Magnification is given by

$M=\frac{F}{F-d}=\frac{60}{60-40}=3$

So magnification will be equal to 3

A 57-kg woman holds a 6-kg package as she stands within an elevator which briefly accelerates upward at a rate of 0.15g. Determi

Temka [501]

Answer:

R = 710.7N

L = 67.689 N

During gravity fall L = R = 0 N

Explanation:

So the acceleration that the elevator is acting on the woman (and the package) in order to result in a net acceleration of 0.15g is

g + 0.15g = 1.15g

The force R that the elevator exerts on her feet would be product of acceleration and total mass (Newton's 2nd law):

a(m + M) = 1.15g(57 + 6) = 1.15*9.81*63 = 710.7N

The force L that she exerts on the package would be:

am = 1.15g *6 = 1.15*9.81*6 = 67.689N

When the system is falling, all have a net acceleration of g. So the acceleration that the elevator exerts on the woman (and the package) is 0, and so are the forces L and R.
