Answer:

t = 1.4[s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is conserved before and after applying a force to a body. We must remember that the impulse can be calculated by means of the following equation.

P=m*v\\or\\P=F*t

where:

P = impulse or lineal momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 50 [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

F = force = 200[N]

t = time = [s]

Now we must be clear that the final linear momentum must be equal to the original linear momentum plus the applied momentum. In this way we can deduce the following equation.

(m_{1}*v_{1})-F*t=(m_{1}*v_{2})

where:

m₁ = mass of the object = 50 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the object before the impulse = 18.2 [m/s]

v₂ = velocity of the object after the impulse = 12.6 [m/s]

(50*18.2)-200*t=50*12.6\\910-200*t=630\\200*t=910-630\\200*t=280\\t=1.4[s]

In boxing, the use of 16-ounce gloves rather than 12-ounce gloves reduces the chance of injury because the force is distributed
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Here we have assumed that increasing the mass of a glove will increase the surface area.

Injury is caused by the application of pressure at a point on the body. The application of pressure takes place via the area of the gloves. Pressure is given by

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

where

F = Force

A = Area to which the force is applied

So, a bigger glove will increase the surface area and reduce the pressure resulting in a lower chance of injury.

Hence, the statement is true.

1. The diagram shows a satellite traveling in uniform circular motion around the Earth.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

M V R = constant      angular momentum is constant because  no forces act in the direction of V

Since M (mass) = constant

V R = constant

The force is directed along the gravitational force vector (towards the center of rotation)

A knight moves on a chessboard two squares up, down, left, or right followedby one square in one of the two directions perpendic
Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Check attachment for solution.

Generally the movement of the knight is L, i.e (2,1), (1,2),(-1,2),(1,-2) etc.

So using Pythagoras theorem

x^2+y^2=1^2+2^2

x^2+y^2=5

Then, the knight will make one movement when the displacement is √5.

So let take a look at other positions

(1,0),(0,1),(-1,0), (0,-1).

Then, for us to have this kind of movement, the knight has to make 3 movements.

When the displacement is 1, then it will make 3 movement.

Let examine other positions

(2,2) or(-2,-2) or (2,-2) or (-2,2)

When the displacement is √8

Then, the movement of the knight is 4.

Let examine other points

(2,0) or (0,2) or (-2,0) or (0,-2)

When the displacement is 2.

The knight make 2 movement
