The cat has two directions of motions:
The horizontal motion = Dx = 2.2 m
The vertical motion = Dy = -1.3 m (negative sign indicates that the cat is falling)
a = 9.8 m/sec^2
Vy = zero (since you are not moving up)
From the laws of motion:
<span>Dy = Vyt + 0.5ayt^2
</span>-1.3 = 0(t) + 0.5(-9.8)t^2
<span>t = 0.52s
</span>
Then, again using the laws of motion (but for the horizontal direction this time)
Dx = Vxt
<span>2.2 = Vx0.52 </span>
<span>Vx = 2.2/0.52 </span>
<span>= 4.23 m/s
</span>
<span>Therefore the cat's speed when it slid off the table is 4.23 m/s horizontally.</span>
Answer:
I disagree
Explanation:
I think the students claim is wrong because according to Newton's First Law an object that is in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Which makes the students claim wrong because a object doesn't require another force to keep it moving.
Question:<em> </em><em>Find, separately, them mass of the balloon and the basket (incidentally, most of the balloon's mass is air)</em>
Answer:
The mass of the balloon is 2295 kg, and the mass of the basket is 301 kg.
Explanation:
Let us call the mass of the balloon 
and the mass of the basket 
, then according to newton's second law:
,
where 
is the upward acceleration, and 
is the net propelling force (counts the gravitational force).
Also, the tension 
in the rope is 79.8 N more than the basket's weight; therefore,
and this tension must equal
Combining equations (2) and (3) we get:
since , we have
Putting this into equation (1) and substituting the numerical values of 
and 
, we get:
Thus, the mass of the balloon and the basket is 2295 kg and 301 kg respectively.
171.0798 M/S
In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.
