Answer:

v = 2.0 m/s West

Explanation:

Let East be the positive direction

The initial momentum of the mass is p = mv = 4.0(10) = 40 kg•m/s East

This is acted on by an impulse of p = Ft = 16(3.0) = 48 N•s west

An impulse will result in a change of momentum

so final momentum of the mass is

40 - 48 = -8 kg•m/s or 8 kg•m/s West

-8 = 4.0v

v = -2.0 m/s or 2.0 m/s West

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial reading on scale =40 N

So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N

After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)

This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.

So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.

This situation can be diagramatically represented by figure given below

A tennis ball is tossed up off a building with a velocity of 22m/s. It takes 6.4s to reach the ground. How high is the building
Amanda [17]
The height of the tennis ball,relative to the ground is H=h max+h-->h max-the maximum height that the tennis ball reaches relative to the roof of the building; h-the height of the building;h max =v0^2/2g=24,2m(g=10m/s^2).H=gt^2/2=>24,2+h=gt^2/2=>h=gt^2/2-24,2=180,6m

A car with a mass of 1.50x10^3 kg starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 18.0m/s in 12.0 s. assume that the force of res
Luden [163]
The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
 d = v * t
 Where,
 v = speed
 t = time
 We have then:
 d = v * t
 d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
 The kinetic energy is:
 K = ½mv²
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed
 K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
 The work due to friction is
 w = F * d
 Where,
 F = Force
 d = distance:
 w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
 The power will be:
 P = (K + work) / t
 Where,
 t: time
 P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
 answer:
 the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW
