Describe an example of Newton's 3rd Law of Motion (for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction).

1 answer:

8 0

The motion of an airplane when the pilot changes the throttle setting of the engine is described by the first law. The motion of a ball falling down through the atmosphere, or a model rocket being launched up into the atmosphere are both examples of Newton's first law.

A 9.0 kg bowling ball races down the lane at 15 m/s before striking a bowling pin (at rest) with a mass of 0.85 kg. If the 0.85

Answer:

$v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The system ball-pin is modelled by the Principle of Moment Conservation:

$(9\,kg)\cdot (15\,\frac{m}{s} ) + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (0\frac{m}{s} ) = (9\,kg)\cdot v + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (45\,\frac{m}{s} )$

The velocity of the bowling ball after the collision is:

$v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}$

An object thrown vertically upward from the surface of a celestial body at a velocity of 36 m/s reaches a height of sequalsminu

Anarel [89]

Answer:

v = -1.8t+36

20 seconds

360 m

40 seconds

36 m/s

The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.

Explanation:

$s=-0.9t^2+36t$

Differentiating with respect to time we get

$\frac{ds}{dt}=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow v=-1.8t+36$

a) Velocity of the object after t seconds is v = -1.8t+36

At the highest point v will be 0

$0=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-36}{-1.8}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

b) The object will reach the highest point after 20 seconds

$s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow s=-0.9\times 20^2+36\times 20\\\Rightarrow s=360\ m$

c) Highest point the object will reach is 360 m

$s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow 360=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow -0.9t^2+36t-360=0\\\Rightarrow -9t^2+360t-3600=0$

$\frac{-360\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\left(-9\right)}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

d) Time taken to strike the ground would be 20+20 = 40 seconds

$[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.9\times 2\times 20\\\Rightarrow v=36\ m/s$

Acceleration will be taken as positive because the object is going down. Hence, the sign changes. 2 is multiplied because the expression is given in the form of $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

e) The velocity with which the object strikes the ground will be 36 m/s

f) The speed will increase when the object has gone up and for 20 seconds and falls down for 20 seconds. The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.
