A spacecraft has a momentum of 20,000 kg-m/s, and a mass of 250 kg. What is the magnitude of its velocity?

Physics
1 answer:
Harlamova29_29 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<h2>A. 80 m/s </h2>

Explanation:

The velocity of the spacecraft can be found by using the formula

v =  \frac{p}{m}  \\

p is the momentum

m is the mass

From the question we have

v =  \frac{20000}{250}  =  \frac{2000}{25}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>80 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

1. Which mathematical representation correctly identifies impulse?
horsena [70]

Answer:

1. B. Impulse = Force × Time

2. A. The momentum of each ball changes, and the total momentum stays the same

3. -55 kg·m/s

4. B. 3.5 kg

5. C. 6.3 m/s

Explanation:

1. The impulse is the momentum change of an object due to a force applied for a given period

2. Given that the objects collide, and the force of the 3 kg mass moving with 24 kg·m/s acts on the 1 kg mass while the total momentum is conserved;

The stationary ball of mass 1 kg begins to moves at certain velocity after collision and therefore changes momentum, while the velocity of the ball of mass 3.0 kg reduces and the total combined momentum of the two balls in the closed system remains the same

3. By the principle of conservation of linear momentum, we have;

The sum of the momentum before the collision = The sum of the momentum after collision

Given that the objects move together after the collision, the total momentum is therefore;

Total momentum = 110 kg·m/s + -65 kg·m/s + -100 kg·m/s = 110 kg·m/s - 65 kg·m/s - 100 kg·m/s  = -55kg·m/s

4. Given that the final velocity of the two objects (m₁ + m₂) combined = 50 m/s

Where;

m₁ = The mass of the first object

m₂ = The mass of the second object

The total momentum of the system = 250 kg·m/s

From momentum = Mass × Velocity, we have;

Mass = Momentum/Velocity = 250 kg·m/s/(50 m/s) = 5.0 kg

The mass (m₁ + m₂) = 5.0 kg

Given that m₁ = 1.5 kg, we have;

m₂ = 5.0 kg - m₁ = 5.0 kg - 1.5 kg = 3.5 kg

The mass of the second object = 3.5 kg

5. The mass of the cue stick = 0.5 kg

The velocity of the cue stick = 2.5 m/s

The mass of the ball = 0.2 kg

The initial velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

Given that total initial momentum = Total final momentum, we have;

0.5 kg × 2.5 m/s + 0.2 kg × 0 = 0.2 kg × v + 0.5 kg × 0

0.5 kg × 2.5 m/s = 0.2 kg × v

v = (0.5 kg × 2.5 m/s)/(0.2 kg) = 6.25  m/s ≈ 6.3 m/s

True or False. Father of a multitude" obeyed God's command to kill His son because the Ten Commandments had not yet been given.
velikii [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

The father of the Multitude was Abraham. And he did precede the 10 commandments. But the story really has nothing to do with the 10 commandments.

He obeyed God's Command because it was God who issued it. Abraham had complete faith in God's ability to make things come out right. The sacrifice of Isaac was a test of faith.

I would advise you to answer true, but whoever wrote the question employed a twisted kind of logic. The sacrifice of Isaac had nothing to do with the 10 commandments. <u><em>Thou Shalt not murde</em></u>r is not really covered by this circumstance.

So true might not be the correct answer. The question is very complex and does not lend itself to a simple True/ False answer.

The vertical component of the projectile motion of an object depends on which of these? initial velocity or angel of trajectory
SVEN [57.7K]
It depends on both of them.

In fact, the projectile begins its motion with an initial velocity of v_0 and an angle of \alpha. On the y-axis (vertical direction), it is an accelerated motion with acceleration equal to -g (gravitational acceleration). The vertical velocity of the projectile at any time t is given by
v_y (t) = v_0 sin \alpha + gt
and as it can be seen, this depends on both initial velocity and angle.

URGENT <br><br> Give three examples of models that you see every day
umka2103 [35]
Models are very common. The ingredients list on a bottle of ketchup is a model of its contents, and margarine is a model of butter. A box score from a baseball game is a model of the actual event. A trial over an automobile accident is a model of the actual accident.
