What is the relation between force and acceleration​

Physics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
6 0

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

Two objects of equal mass collide on a horizontal frictionless surface. Before the collision, object A is at rest while object B
fenix001 [56]

Answer: 6m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum, the change in momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the change in momentum after collision.

After collision, the two objects will move at the same velocity (v).

Let mA and mB be the mass of the two objects

uA and uB be their velocities before collision.

v be their velocity after collision

Since the two objects has the same mass, mA= mB= m

Also since object A is at rest, its velocity = 0m/s

Velocity of object B = 12m/s

Mathematically,

mAuA + mBuB = (mA+mB )v

m(0) + m(12) = (m+m)v

0+12m = (2m)v

12m = 2mv

12 = 2v

v = 6m/s

Therefore the speed of the composite body (A B) after the collision is 6m/s

The "lead" in pencils is a graphite composition with a Young’s modulus of about 1×1010N/m21×1010⁢N/m2. Calculate the change in l
Tanya [424]

Answer:

b) 0.1 mm

Explanation:

Given that

E= 1 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

F= 4 N

d= 0.5 mm

L = 60 mm

We know that elongation due to force F given as

\Delta L=\dfrac{FL}{AE}

\Delta L=\dfrac{FL}{\dfrac{\pi d^2}{4}\times E}

\Delta L=\dfrac{4\times 60}{\dfrac{\pi \times 0.5^2}{4}\times 10^4}

ΔL = 0.12 mm

Therefore the answer is -

b) 0.1 mm

I am sitting on a train car traveling horizontally at a constant speed of 50 m/s. I throw a ball straight up into the air.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

I am sitting on a train car traveling horizontally at a constant speed of 50 m/s. I throw a ball straight up into the air. Before , the ball gets separated from my hand , both me the ball will be moving with velocity of 50 m /s in horizontal direction .

As soon as ball is separated from the hand , it acquires addition velocity in upward direction and acceleration in downward direction . This will give relative velocity to the ball with respect to me . So I will see the ball going in upward direction under  gravitational acceleration . It appears as if I am sitting at rest and ball is going in upward direction under deceleration . My motion at 50 m/s will have no effect on the motion of ball in upward direction , according to first law of Newton . It is so because ball too will be moving in forward direction with the same speed which will not be visible to me because I too am moving with the same speed.

If I  am  sitting at rest at home and I threw a ball straight up into the air , I will have the same experience of seeing ball going in similar way as described above.

A cue ball of mass m1 = 0.325 kg is shot at another billiard ball, with mass m2 = 0.59 kg, which is at rest. The cue ball has an
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

v_{2f} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}

Explanation:

If the collision is elastic and exactly head-on, then we can use the law of momentum conservation for the motion of the 2 balls

Before the collision

P_i = m_1v

After the collision

P_f = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

So using the law of momentum conservation

P_i = P_f

m_1v = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

We can solve for the speed of ball 1 post collision in terms of others:

v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}

Their kinetic energy is also conserved before and after collision

m_1v^2/2 = m_1v_{1f}^2/2 + m_2v_{2f}^2/2

m_1v^2 = m_1v_{1f}^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2

From here we can plug in v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}

m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right)^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2

m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v^2 - 2vv_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1} + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1^2}\right) + m_2v_{2f}^2

m_1v^2 = m_1v^2 - 2vv_{2f}m_2 + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1} + m_2v_{2f}^2

v_{2f}^2(m_2 + \frac{m_2^2}{m_1}) - 2vm_2v_{2f} = 0

v_{2f}(1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}) = 2v

v_{2f} = \frac{2v}{1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2v}{\frac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}
