1) An average soccer ball has a mass of .4 kg. If a soccer ball is kicked with a force of 750 Newtons, what is the acceleration

of the soccer ball after it has been kicked?
2) If a tiger runs at a speed of about 12.3 m/s, how far will it travel in 25 seconds?

Answer:

Explanation:

#1 uses Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma so filling in:

750 = .4a and

a = 1875 m/s/s

#2 uses d = rt so

d = 12.3(25) and

d = 307.5 m

An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
$F_{12} = \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N$
with direction at $45^{\circ}$ north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be $45^{\circ}$ south-east.

A 50 kg runner runs up a flight of stairs. The runner starts out covering 3 steps every second. At the end the runner stops. Thi

nadezda [96]

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of kinematic equations of motion and the work done by a body.

In the case of work, we know that it is defined by,

$W = F * d$

Where,

F= Force

d = Distance

The distance in this case is a composition between number of steps and the height. Then,

$d=h*N$ , for h as the height of each step and N number of steps.

On the other hand we have the speed changes, depending on the displacement and acceleration (omitting time)

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

Where,

$V_f =$ Final velocity

$V_i =$ Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

$\Delta X =$ Displacement

PART A) For the particular case of work we know then that,

$W = F*d$

$W = m*g*(h*N)$

$W = 50*9.8*(0.3*30)$

$W = 4.41kJ$

Therefore the Work to do that activity is 4.41kJ

PART B) To find the acceleration (from which we can later find the time) we start from the previously given equation,

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

Here,

$V_i = \frac{0.3*3}{1} = 0.90m/s\rightarrow$ 3 steps in one second

$v_f = 0$

Replacing,

$V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X$

$0-0.9^2=2a(30*0.3)$

Re-arrange for a,

$a = -\frac{0.9^2}{2*30*0.3}$

$a = -45*10^{-3}m/s^2$

At this point we can calculate the time, which is,

$t = \frac{\Delta V}{a}$

$t = \frac{0-0.9}{-45*10^{-3}}$

$t = 20s$

With time and work we can finally calculate the power

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{4.41}{20}

P = 0.2205kW

A roller coaster car may be approximated by a block of mass m. Thecar, which starts from rest, is released at a height h above t

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The first part can be solved via conservation of energy.

$mgh = mg2R + K\\K = mg(h-2R)$

For the second part,

the free body diagram of the car should be as follows:

- weight in the downwards direction

- normal force of the track to the car in the downwards direction

The total force should be equal to the centripetal force by Newton's Second Law.

$F = ma = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\mg + N = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

where $N = 0$ because we are looking for the case where the car loses contact.

$mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\v^2 = gR\\v = \sqrt{gR}$

Now we know the minimum velocity that the car should have. Using the energy conservation found in the first part, we can calculate the minimum height.

$mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}m(gR)\\gh = g2R + \frac{1}{2}gR\\h = 2R + \frac{R}{2}\\h = \frac{5R}{2}$

Explanation:

The point that might confuse you in this question is the direction of the normal force at the top of the loop.

We usually use the normal force opposite to the weight. However, normal force is the force that the road exerts on us. Imagine that the car goes through the loop very very fast. Its tires will feel a great amount of normal force, if its velocity is quite high. By the same logic, if its velocity is too low, it might not feel a normal force at all, which means losing contact with the track.

Student 1 lifts a box with a force of 500 N and sets it on a tabletop 1.2 m high. Student 2 pushes an identical box up a 5 m ram

Troyanec [42]

The student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Force 1 = 500 Newton

Distance 1 = 1.2 meter

Force 2 = 500 Newton

Distance 2 = 5 meter

To determine which of the students did the most work:

Mathematically, the work done by an object is given by the formula;

$Work\;done = Force \times distance$

<u>For </u><u>student 1</u><u>:</u>

$Work\;done = 500 \times 1.2$

Work done = 600 Joules

<u>For </u><u>student 2</u><u>:</u>

$Work\;done = 500 \times 5$

Work done = 2500 Joules.

Therefore, the student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.
