13. Momentum is an object’s mass times velocity. Which has more momentum? A paper airplane with a mass of 10g flying at a veloci

ty of 4m/s, or a real airplane that is parked on a runway with a mass of 1000kg and a velocity of 0m/s

Since the velocity of the real plane is 0, p=mv=0. So the paper airplane actually has more momentum since it's value is not 0.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Power is 1061.67W

Explanation:

Power=force×distance/time

Power=65×9.8×15/9 assuming gravity=9.8m/s²

Power=3185/3=1061.67W

What is the equation describing the motion of a mass on the end of a spring which is stretched 8.8 cm from equilibrium and then

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } t)$

Explanation:

We first identify the elements of this simple harmonic motion:

The amplitude A is 8.8cm, because it's the maximum distance the mass can go away from the equilibrium point. In meters, it is equivalent to 0.088m.

The angular frequency ω can be calculated with the formula:

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

Where k is the spring constant and m is the mass of the particle.

Now, since the spring starts stretched at its maximum, the appropriate function to use is the positive cosine in the equation of simple harmonic motion:

$x=A\cos(\omega t)$

Finally, the equation of the motion of the system is:

$x=(0.088m)\cos(\omega t)$

or

$x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } t)$

What is my displacement if i walked 200 meters west then turned around and walked 150 meters east

Alinara [238K]

You're walking in one direction, and then the exact opposite of that direction, so you simply have to subtract the two distances.
200-150=50
You're 50 meters west of where you originally started.
You're west because 200 meters west is greater than 150 meters east. If the distance walked east was greater than the distance walked west, you would've been east of your starting position.

An acorn falls from an oak tree. You note that it

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

It was going at 9.8m/s² as this is the acceleration of an object due to gravity

when an object falls it accelerates at a consant and uniform speed which is 9.8m/s²
