A professional boxer hits his opponent with a 1035 N horizontal blow that lasts 0.175 s. The opponent's total body mass is 120 k

g and the blow strikes him near his center of mass and while he is motionless in midair. Determine the following.(a) The opponent's final velocity after the blow(b) Calculate the recoil velocity of the opponent's 5.0-kg head if hit in this manner, assuming the head does not initially transfer significant momentum to the boxer's body.

Answer:

(a) vf = 1.51 m/s

(b) vf = 36.22 m/s

Explanation:

The rate of change of momentum is equal to the force:

F = \frac{mv_f-mv_i}{t}

Ft = m(v_f-v_i)

where,

F = Force = 1035 N

t = time = 0.175 s

vi = initial speed = 0 m /s

vf = final speed = ?

(a)

m = mass of body = 120 kg

Therefore,

(1035\ N)(0.175\ s)=(120\ kg)(v_f - 0\ m/s)\\\\v_f = \frac{181.125\ Ns}{120\ kg} \\\\

<u>vf = 1.51 m/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

m = mass of head = 5 kg

Therefore,

(1035\ N)(0.175\ s)=(5\ kg)(v_f - 0\ m/s)\\\\v_f = \frac{181.125\ Ns}{5\ kg} \\\\

<u>vf = 36.22 m/s</u>

Two satellites A and B orbit the Earth in the same plane. Their masses are 5 m and 7 m, respectively, and their radii 4 r and 7
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of A = 5 m

Mass of B = 7 m

Radius of A = 4 r

Radius of B = 7 r

The orbital speed of satellite A,

v_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}......(I)

The orbital speed of satellite B,

v_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}......(I)

We need to calculate the ratio of their orbital speeds

Using equation (I) and (II)

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{G\times5m\times7r}{G\times7m\times4r}}

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Hence, The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.

what principle is responsible for alternating light and dark bands when light passes through two or more narrow slits?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The superposition principle is responsible for alternating light and dark bands when light passes through two or more narrow slits.

The intensity pattern that appears on the lit screen is determined by the superposition principle. When the difference in pathways from the two slits to a location on the screen equals an integral number of wavelengths (0,λ,2λ ,...), constructive interference takes place.

The fact that the two waves' crests follow different paths ensures that they do. A distinctive pattern of brilliant and dark fringes is seen when monochromatic light illuminates a distant screen after passing through two small openings. The superposition of overlapping light waves coming from the two slits results in this interference pattern.
