QUESTION 7

Physics
1 answer:
ryzh [129]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The force required is 3,104 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = ma

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

On the other hand, the equations of the Kinematics describe the motion of the object by the equation:

v_f=v_o+at

Where:

vf is the final speed

vo is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

We are given the initial speed as vo=20.4 m/s, the final speed as vf=0 (at rest), and the time taken to stop the car as t=7.4 s. The acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{0-20.4}{7.4}

a=-2.757\ m/s^2

The acceleration is negative because the car is braking (losing speed). Now compute the force exerted on the car of mass m=1,126 kg:

F = 1,126\ kg * 2.757\ m/s^2

F= 3,104 N

The force required is 3,104 N

A bag weighing 20 N is pushed horizontally a distance of 35 m across a
topjm [15]

Answer:

350J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of bag  = 20N

Distance moved horizontally  = 35m

Force applied  = 10N

Unknown:

Work done on the bag  = ?

Solution:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through given distance.

  Work done  = Force applied x distance

So;

 Work done  = 10 x 35  = 350J

The rate (in cubic feet per hour) that a spherical snowball melts is proportional to the snowball's volume raised to the 2/3 pow
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

A 3 feet radius snowball will melt in 54 hours.

Explanation:

As we can assume that the rate of  snowball takes to melt is proportional to the surface area, then the rate for a 3 feet radius will be:

T= A(3 ft)/A(1 ft) * 6 hr

A is the area of the snowballs. For a spherical geometry is computing as:

A=4.pi.R^2

Then dividing the areas:

A(3 feet)/A(1 foot) = (4 pi (3 ft)^2)/(4 pi (1 ft)^2) =  (36pi ft^2)/(4pi ft^2)= 9

Finally, the rate for the 3 feet radius snowball is:

T= 9 * 6 hr = 54 hr

It is just as difficult to accelerate a car on a level horizontal surface on the Moon as it is here on Earth because
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Mass of the car is independent of gravity

Explanation:

Here, we want to state the reason why even though we have the acceleration due to gravity absent on the moon, it is still difficult to accelerate a car on a level horizontal level on the moon.

The answer to this is that the mass of the car that we want to accelerate is independent of gravity.

Had it been that gravity has an effect on the mass of the said car, then we might conclude that it will not be difficult to accelerate the car on a horizontal surface on the moon.

But due to the fact that gravity has no effect on the mass of the car to be accelerated, then the problem we have on earth with accelerating the car is the same problem we will have on the moon if we try to accelerate the car on a horizontal level surface.

What are advantages and disadvantages of apparent solar time? How is the situation improved by introducing mean solar time and s
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Advantage:  

Apparent solar time gives the exact location of sun in the sky according to your precise location.

Disadvantage:  

As the apparent solar time changes with the change in longitude. It is very difficult to track these changes in longitude. Hence, it is almost impossible to make plan for events.

Improvement in situation:

Situation can be improved using mean solar time because due to this people living in the longitude band agree upon a standard time. In this way, it is easy to plan for events.

What is kinetic energy of an object that is not in motion
Rus_ich [418]
There is no kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy = 1/2(m)v^2
There is no velocity; therefore, there is no kinetic energy.
